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

ivolga24 [154]

The term sensitivity in Analytical Chemistry is "the slope of the calibration curve or a function of analyte concentration or amount".

<u>Answer:</u> Option B

<u>Explanation:</u>

In a sample, the little amounts of substances can be accurately evaluated by a method is termed as "Analytical sensitivity". This detect a target analyte like an antibody or antigen, process is considered as potential of a test to and generally demonstrated as the analyte's minimum detectable concentration.

The acceptable diagnostic sensitivity is not guaranteed by high analytical sensitivity. The percentage of individuals who have a given disarray who are identified by the method as positive for the disarray is known as "Diagnostic sensitivity".

GuDViN [60]

Answer:

a  H2CO3 b HCO3- and c H+ and HCO3-

Explanation:

As the pKa value of phenol is more than that of carbonic acid(H2CO3), the carbonic acid will have high Ka value than that of phenol.

  The acid that contain high Ka value act as stong acid.From that point of view H2CO3 is a strong acid than phenol as the Ka value of carbonic acid is greater than that of phenol.

  The conjugate base of H2CO3 is bicarbonate ion(HCO3-)

c The species that predorminates at equilibrium are H+ and HCO3-
