When 7.00 g of hydrogen react with 70.0 g of nitrogen, hydrogen is considered the limiting reactant because:

Chemistry

7.5 mol of hydrogen would be needed to consume the available nitrogen.

Explanation:

When hydrogen reacts with nitrogen, ammonia is formed as shown below;

3H₂ (g) + N₂ (g) → 2NH₃ (g)

As seen from the equation, every 3 moles of H₂ react with a mole of N₂ to form 2 moles of NH₃.

The limiting factor in a chemical reaction is the reactant that gets depleted first.

Because the molar mass of nitrogen gas is approximately 28g/mol, 70g of nitrogen gas would be 2.5 moles.

The reaction ratio of nitrogen to hydrogen in the reaction is 1 : 3. The reaction would require 2.5 * 3 (7.5) moles of hydrogen for a complete reaction.

However since there are only 7g on hydrogen, (Remember 1 mole of H₂ is approximately 2g), the available moles of H₂ is 7 / 2 = 3.5

3.5 moles fall short of the 7.5 moles of H₂ required for a complete reaction. H₂ gets depleted first before N₂.  The reaction would require 4 more moles of H₂.

Leni [432]

<span>Actually, the heat of reaction hrxn s calculated by taking the sum of the heats of formation of the products minus the sum of the heats of formation of the reactants. However, at heat of formations of pure elements at atmospheric conditions is zero, therefore the hf of N2 is not important since it is zero anyway.</span>

What is the volume in liters of 5.25 moles of He gas?​
serious [3.7K]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 117.6 \ L \ He}}

Explanation:

Regardless of the type of gas, 1 mole at standard temperature and pressure (STP) occupies a volume of 22.4 liters. In this case the gas is helium (He).

We can set up a ratio.

\frac { 22.4 \ L \ He}{ 1 \ mol \ He}

Multiply by the given number of moles.

5.25 \ mol \ He *\frac { 22.4 \ L \ He}{ 1 \ mol \ He}

The moles of helium will cancel.

5.25 *\frac { 22.4 \ L \ He}{ 1 }

5.25 * { 22.4 \ L \ He}

Multiply.

117.6 \ L \ He

5.25 moles of helium gas at STP is 117.6 liters of helium.

According to the equation below, how many moles of PbO are required to generate 3.88×1023 nitrogen molecules?
saul85 [17]

Answer:

1.935 mole

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the number of mole present in 3.88x10^23 molecules of nitrogen(N2). This can be obtained as follow:

From Avogadro's hypothesis, 1 mole of any substance contains 6.02x10^23 molecules. Therefore 1 mole of N2 contains 6.02x10^23 molecules.

Now if 1 mole of N2 contains 6.02x10^23 molecules,

Then Xmol of N2 will contain 3.88x10^23 molecules i.e

Xmol of N2 = (3.88x10^23)/6.02x10^23

Xmol of N2 = 0.645 mole

Now, we can obtain the number of moles of PbO required to generate 3.88x10^23 molecules (i.e 0.645 mole) of N2. This is illustrated below:

The equation for the reaction is given below:

3PbO + 2NH3 → 3Pb + N2 + 3H2O

From the balanced equation above, 3 moles of PbO produced 1 mole of N2.

Therefore, Xmol of PbO will produce 0.645 mole of N2 i.e

Xmol of PbO = 3 x 0.645

Xmol of PbO = 1.935 mole.

From the calculations made above,

1.935 mole of PbO will produce 3.88x10^23 molecules of nitrogen (N2).

The practice of making operations "carbon neutral" is a way to offset whatever damage is being done to the environment due to gr
Marianna [84]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

The greenhouse effect is the process whereby there is radiation from a atmosphere planet and the planet increase the temperature of the planet's surface to a temperature above normal.In this process the Earth's atmosphere becomes thicker with the influence substances such as gases

and the radiation coming from the sun is trapped, then the Earth becomes warmer. Green house effect is seen in global warming.

Carbon neutral can be described as a process of removing huge amount of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere in order to achieve zero carbon neutrality.It is also reffered to as carbon neutrality, and this can be achieved by actions of organizations, businesses and individuals .

Carbon neutral can be achieved in two ways;

: 1.) Maintaining a balance between carbon dioxide emissions and carbon removal by means of the process called carbon offsetting

2 ) the process of removal of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere in order to balance up emissions in another place.

Carbon positive is crucial to increase the positive influence of our daily activities on climate change and our resources.

while reduce the negative effect of our activities and business on evironment.

Therefore, the practice of making operations "carbon neutral" is a way to offset whatever damage is being done to the environment due to greenhouse gas emissions by purchasing credits from "carbon-positive" projects to balance out emissions is true because the harmful gasses that is been released to the atmosphere is balance up by the carbon neutral process hence the reduction in green house effect.
