Chemistry

Answer:

The answer to your question is letter A

Explanation:

Process

1.- Calculate the molar mass of KNO₃

KNO₃    molecular mass = 39.1 + 14.01 + (3 x 16)

                                        = 39.1 + 14.01 + 48

                                        = 101.11 g

2.- Use a rule of three to find the percent of nitrogen

                            101.11 g of KNO₃  ---------------   100%

                             14.01 g of N        ---------------     x

                             x = (14.01 x 100) / 101.11

                             x = 13.86%

What is the process for extracting oils
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

Oil is extracted by three general methods: rendering, used with animal products and oleaginous fruits; mechanical pressing, for oil-bearing seeds and nuts; and extracting with volatile solvents, employed in large-scale operations for a more complete extraction than is possible with pressing.

Magnesium metal (0.100 mol) and a volume of aqueous hydrochloric acid that contains 0.500 mol of HCl are combined and react to c
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

2.24 L of hydrogen gas, measured at STP, are produced.

Explanation:

Given, Moles of magnesium metal, Mg = 0.100 mol

Moles of hydrochloric acid, HCl = 0.500 mol

According to the reaction shown below:-

Mg_{(s)} + 2HCl_{(aq)}\rightarrow MgCl_2_{(aq)} + H_2_{(g)}

1 mole of Mg reacts with 2 moles of HCl

0.100 mol of Mg reacts with 2*0.100 mol of HCl

Moles of HCl must react = 0.200 mol

Available moles of HCl = 0.500 moles

Limiting reagent is the one which is present in small amount. Thus, Mg is limiting reagent.

The formation of the product is governed by the limiting reagent. So,

1 mole of Mg on reaction forms 1 mole of H_2

0.100 mole of Mg on reaction forms 0.100 mole of H_2

Mole of H_2 = 0.100 mol

At STP,  

Pressure = 1 atm  

Temperature = 273.15 K

Volume = ?

Using ideal gas equation as:

PV=nRT

where,  

P is the pressure

V is the volume

n is the number of moles

T is the temperature  

R is Gas constant having value = 0.0821 L.atm/K.mol

Applying the equation as:

1 atm × V L = 0.100 × 0.0821 L.atm/K.mol × 273.15 K  

<u>⇒V = 2.24 L</u>

2.24 L of hydrogen gas, measured at STP, are produced.
