How do the chemical characteristics of carbon affect the characteristics of organic molecules?

Chemistry

Tom [10]3 years ago

Answer:

The chemical characteristics of carbon affect the characteristics of organic molecules due to its tetravalent nature. It has four valence electrons in which it shares with other elements in order to form an octet configuration.

Carbon atoms are also capable of forming double and triple bonds with other atoms. These properties help determine the functional group present and gives us a knowledge of the chemical features such as polarity, melting and boiling present in the compound.

Ammonia and oxygen react to form nitrogen monoxide and water. Construct your own balanced equation to determine the amount of NO
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

NO would form 65.7 g.

H₂O would form 59.13 g.

Explanation:

Given data:

Moles of NH₃ = 2.19

Moles of O₂ = 4.93

Mass of NO produced = ?

Mass of  produced H₂O = ?

Solution:

First of all we will write the balance chemical equation,

4NH₃ + 5O₂   →   4NO + 6H₂O

Now we will compare the moles of NO and H₂O with ammonia from balanced chemical equation:

NH₃  :   NO                                   NH₃  :   H₂O

4     :    4                                          4    :      6

2.19   :    2.19                                 2.19  : 6/4 × 2.19 = 3.285 mol

Now we will compare the moles of NO and H₂O with oxygen from balanced chemical equation:

O₂  :   NO                                               O₂ :   H₂O

5     :    4                                                  5     :    6

4.93   :   4/5×4.93 = 3.944 mol               4.93  : 6/5 × 4.93 = 5.916 mol

we can see that moles of water and nitrogen monoxide produced from the ammonia are less, so ammonia will be limiting reactant and will limit the product yield.

Mass of water = number of  moles × molar mass

Mass of water = 3.285 mol × 18 g/mol

Mass of water = 59.13 g

Mass of nitrogen monoxide  = number of  moles × molar mass

Mass of nitrogen monoxide = 2.19 mol × 30 g/mol

Mass of nitrogen monoxide = 65.7 g
