Why can’t elements be separated into smaller parts using chemical means?

Why can't elements be separated into smaller parts using chemical means? Too much energy is required, since you'd have to break them down into protons, neutrons, and electrons. You can get this much energy together with nuclear reactions, but not by chemical means.

Debora [2.8K]

The complete balanced chemical equation is: 
4 NH3 (g) + 5 O2 (g) → 4 NO (g) + 6 H2O (g) 

In statement form: 4mol NH3 reacts with 5 mol O2 to produce 6 mol H2O 

First let us find for the limiting reactant: 
>molar mass NH3 = 17 g/mol 
moles NH3 = 54/17 = 3.18 mol NH3 
This will react with 3.18*5/4 = 3.97 mol O2 

>molar mass O2 = 32g/mol 
moles O2 = 54/32 = 1.69 mol O2 
We have insufficient O2 therefore this is the limiting reactant 

From the balanced equation: 
For every 5.0 mol O2, we get 6.0 mol H2O, therefore

moles H2O formed =  1.69 mol O2  * 6/5 = 2.025 mol
Molar mass H2O = 18g/mol 
<span>mass H2O formed = 2.025*18 = 36.45 grams H2O produced</span>

Using the van der Waals equation, the pressure in a 22.4 L vessel containing 1.00 mol of neon gas at 100 °C is ________ atm. (a
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

The answer to your question is        P = 1.357 atm

Explanation:

Data

Volume = 22.4 L

1 mol

temperature = 100°C

a = 0.211 L² atm

b = 0.0171 L/mol

R = 0.082 atmL/mol°K

Convert temperature to °K

Temperature = 100 + 273

                      = 373°K

Formula

               (P + \frac{a}{v^{2}} )(v - b) = RT

Substitution

               (P + \frac{0.211}{22.4})(22.4 - 0.0171) = (0.082)(373)

Simplify

               (P + 0.0094)(22.3829) = 30.586

Solve for P

                           P + 0.0094 = \frac{30.586}{22.3829}

                           P + 0.0094 = 1.366

                                 P = 1.336 - 0.0094

                                P = 1.357 atm

When 6.0 mol Al react with 13 mol HCl, what is the limiting reactant, and how many moles of H2 can be formed? 2Al + 6HCl → 2AlCl
4vir4ik [10]

Well, we need to find the ratio of Al to the other reactant.


Al:HCl = 1:3


--> this means that for every 1 Al used, you have to use 3 HCl.



6*3 = 18 moles of HCl needed to fully react with 6 moles of Al. Since 13<18, HCL is the limiting reactant.



The ratio of HCl:AlCl = 3:1



13/3 = 4.3333...



The final answer is HCl is the limiting reactant with 4.3 moles of AlCl3 able to be produced.



Hope this helps!!! :)

When can all the coefficients in a balanced equation represent volume ratios? when reactants and products are solids at stp when
Alexxx [7]

Answer: when reactants and products are gases at STP.


Justification:


1) STP stands for standard temperature (0°) and pressure (1 atm).


2) According to the kinetic molecular theory of the gases, and as per Avogadro's principle, equal volumes of gases, at the same temperature and pressure, have the same number of molecules.



3) Since the coefficients in a balanced chemical equation represent number of moles, when reactants and products are gases at the same temperature and pressure, the mole ratios are the same that the volume ratios, and then the coefficients of the chemical equation represent the volume ratios.
