  The mass in grams  of nitric  acid that is required  to react  with 454g C7H8 is 932.72  grams

     calculation
find the  moles  of C7H8  used
moles = mass/molar mass

= 454 g/92  = 4.935  moles

balanced reacting  equation

C7H8  +3 HNO3  = C7H5N3O6  +3 H20
by  use of mole ratio between  C7H8  to  HNo3  which is  1:3  the moles of  HNO3  =4.935  x3 = 14.805  moles

mass of HNo3  =  moles  x molar mass
= 14.805  x 63  = 932.72  grams

part B

the  mass of  C7H5N3o6 = 2045.5 grams

calculate the moles of C7H8
= 829 g/92  g/mol  = 9.011  moles

by use of mole  ratio  between C7H8 to C7H5N3O6  which is  1:1  the moles of  C7H5N3O6  is also  = 9.011  moles

mass of  C7H5N3O6  is therefore  =  moles x molar mass

=9.011 x227  = 2045.5 grams

N2(g) + 3H2(g) → 2NH3(g) How many grams of N2 are required to produce 240.0g NH3?
just olya [345]

Answer:

\large \boxed{\text{197.4 g}}

Explanation:

We will need a chemical equation with masses and molar masses, so, let's gather all the information in one place.

Mᵣ:     28.01               17.03

            N₂ + 3H₂ ⟶ 2NH₃

m/g:                          240.0

(a) Moles of NH₃

\text{Moles of NH}_{3} = \text{240.0 g NH}_{3}\times \dfrac{\text{1 mol NH}_{3}}{\text{17.03 g NH}_{3}}= \text{14.09 mol NH}_{3}

(b) Moles of N₂

\text{Moles of N$_{2}$} = \text{14.09 mol NH}_{3} \times \dfrac{\text{1 mol N$_{2}$}}{\text{2 mol NH}_{3}} = \text{7.046 mol N$_{2}$}

(c) Mass of N₂

\text{Mass of N$_{2}$} =\text{7.046 mol N$_{2}$} \times \dfrac{\text{28.01 g N$_{2}$}}{\text{1 mol N$_{2}$}} = \textbf{197.4 g N$_{2}$}\\\\\text{The reaction requires $\large \boxed{\textbf{197.4 g}}$ of N$_{2}$}

On the basis of the Ksp values below, what is the order of the solubility from least soluble to most soluble for these compounds
Viktor [21]

Answer:

The order of solubility is AgBr <   Ag₂CO₃ < AgCl

Explanation:

The solubility constant give us the molar solubilty of ionic compounds. In general for a compound AB the ksp will be given by:

Ksp = (A) (B) where A and B are the molar solubilities = s²  (for compounds with 1:1  ratio).

It follows then  that the higher the value of Ksp the greater solubilty of the compound if we are comparing compounds with the same ionic ratios:

Comparing AgBr: Ksp = 5.4 x 10⁻¹³ with AgCl: Ksp = 1.8 x 10⁻¹⁰, AgCl will be more soluble.

Comparing Ag2CO3: Ksp = 8.0 x 10⁻¹²  with AgCl Ksp = AgCl: Ksp = 1.8 x 10⁻¹⁰ we have the complication of  the ratio of ions 2:1 in Ag2CO3,  so the answer is not obvious. But since we know that

Ag2CO3 ⇄ 2 Ag⁺ + CO₃²₋

Ksp Ag2CO3  = 2s x s = 2 s² =  8.0 x 10-12

s = 4 x 10⁻12 ∴ s= 2 x 10⁻⁶

And for AgCl

AgCl  ⇄ Ag⁺ + Cl⁻

Ksp = s² = 1.8 x 10⁻¹⁰  ∴ s = √ 1.8 x 10⁻¹⁰   = 1.3 x 10⁻⁵

Therefore, AgCl is more soluble than Ag₂CO₃

The order of solubility is AgBr <   Ag₂CO₃ < AgCl

In the article, Invasion of the Periodical Cicadas, why do scienctists believe that cicadas only reproduce every 13 or 17 years?
frez [133]

Hi, you've asked an incomplete question. However, I assumed you are referring to the article found on the Scientific American website.

Explanation:

<em>Remember,</em> according to that article we are told that scientists notice that these insects have a long nymphal (immature form before becoming adults) stage, one that can last up to 13 to 17 years on the ground before they leave the ground looking for mating partners.

Because it is only after mating occurs at this point that their eggs are laid, that is why scientists believe that cicadas only reproduce every 13 or 17 years.
