By definition, Bronsted-Lowry acid is a proton donor in the acid-base neutralization reaction. When a weak acid like acetylsalicylic acid is reacted with water, the water here acts as the Bronsted-Lowry base. This is possible because water has properties of amphoterism - can act as an acid or base. In this case, acetylsalicylic acid would have to donate its H+ atom to water, so that it would yield a hydronium ion, H₃O⁺. The complete net ionic reaction is shown in the picture.

So, in the reaction, the products yield are the acetylsalicylate ion and the hydronium ion.

Consider the reaction of A(g) + B(g) + C(g) => D(g) for whichthe following data were obtained:

AveGali [126]

Answer:

rate= k[A]²[B]²[C]

Explanation:

When concentration of A is increased two times ,keeping other's concentration constant , rate of reaction becomes 4 times .

So rate is proportional to [A]²

When concentration of B is increased two times , keeping other's concentration constant,rate of reaction becomes 4 times.

So rate is proportional to [B]²

When concentration of C is increased two times , keeping other's concentration constant, rate of reaction becomes 2 times.

So rate is proportional to [C]

So rate= k[A]²[B]²[C]

Nitrogen gas (112 g) reacts with hydrogen gas to produce 40.8 g of ammonia according to the following

Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

%yield of NH₃ = 30%

Explanation:

Actual yield of NH₃ = 40.8g

Theoretical yield = ?

Equation of reaction

N₂ + 3H₂ → 2NH₃

Molar mass of NH₃ = 17g/mol

Molarmass of N = 14.00

2 molecules of N = 2 * 14.00 = 28g/mol

Number of moles = mass / molar mass

Mass = number of moles * molar mass

Mass = 1 * 28.00 = 28g of N₂ (the number of moles of N₂ from the equation is 1).

From the equation of reaction,

28g of N₂ produce (2 * 17)g of NH₃

28g of N₂ = 34g of NH₃

112g of N₂ = x g of NH₃

X = (112 * 34) / 28

X = 136g of NH₃

Theoretical yield = 136g of NH₃

% yield = (actual yield / theoretical yield) * 100

% yield = (40.8 / 136) * 100

% yield = 0.3 * 100

% yield = 30%
