Nitric acid is a key industrial chemical, largely used to make fertilizers and explosives. The first step in its synthesis is th

e oxidation of ammonia. In this reaction, gaseous ammonia reacts with dioxygen gas to produce nitrogen monoxide gas and water.Suppose a chemical engineer studying a new catalyst for the oxidation of ammonia reaction finds that 645. liters per second of dioxygen are consumed when the reaction is run at 195.oC and 0.88 atm. Calculate the rate at which nitrogen monoxide is being produced. Give your answer in kilograms per second. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.

Answer:

The answer is 0.36 kg/s NO

Explanation:

the chemical reaction of NH3 to NO is as follows:

4NH3(g) + 5O2(g) ⟶4 NO(g) +6 H2O(l)

We have the following data:

O2 Volume rate = 645 L/s

P = 0.88 atm

T = 195°C + 273 = 468 K

NO molecular weight = 30.01 g/mol  

we calculate the moles found in 645 L of O2:

P*V = n*R*T

n = P*V/R*T

n= (0.88 atm * 645L/s)/((0.08205 L*atm/K*mol) * 468 K) = 14.78 moles of O2

With the reaction we can calculate the number of moles of NO and with its molecular weight we will have the rate of NO:

14.78 moles/s O2 * 4 molesNO/5 molesO2 * 30.01 g NO/1 molNO x 1 kgNO/1000 gNO = 0.36 kg/s NO

Compare and contrast 10kg of melting ice and 1kg of freezing water address temperature heat flow thermal energy what is the simp
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

10 kg of ice will require more energy than the released when 1 kg of water is frozen because the heat of phase transition increases as the mass increases.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the melting phase transition occurs when the solid goes to liquid and the freezing one when the liquid goes to solid, we can infer that melting is a process which requires energy to separate the molecules and freezing is a process that releases energy to gather the molecules.

Moreover, since the required energy to melt 1 g of ice is 334 J and the released energy when 1 g of water is frozen to ice is the same 334 J, if we want to melt 10 kg of ice, a higher amount of energy well be required in comparison to the released energy when 1 kg of water freezes, which is about 334000 J for the melting of those 10 kg of ice and only 334 J for the freezing of that 1 kg of water.

Best regards!

How much time would it take to distribute one avagadro's number of wheat grains if 10^10 grains are A)1.9*10^2 years B)1.9*10^10
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

It takes  1.9 \times 10^{6} years to distribute all the grains.

Explanation:

In one second, 10^{10} grains of wheat are distributed.

We are supposed to find the time it would take to Distribute Avogadro number of grains.

1 avogadro number = 6.022 \times 10^{23}

Number of grains distributed in 1 day = 86400 \times 10^{10}

                                                             = 8.64 \times 10^{14}

Number of grains distributed in 1 year= 8.64 \times 10^{14} \times 365

                                 = 3.1536 \times 10^{17}

Time taken = \frac{Number of grains to be distributed}{grains distributed in 1 year}

            = \frac {6.022 \times 10^{23}}{3.1536\times 10^{17}}

            = 1.9 \times 10^{6}

Question 6
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

Acid/String Electrolyte

Explanation:

Litmus paper turning red means it is an acidic solution. A pH of more than 7 is Base while pH of less than 7 is an acid. Since the pH is 2, less than 7, it s is an acid. Since it has a high electrical conductivity, it must be a strong Electrolyte.
