The effectiveness of nitrogen fertilizers depends on both their ability to deliver nitrogen to plants and the amount of nitrogen

they can deliver. Four common nitrogen-containing fertilizers are ammonia, ammonium nitrate, ammonium sulfate, and urea [(NH2)NH2) 2CO2CO)]. Rank these fertilizers in terms of the mass percentage nitrogen they contain. Rank fertilizers from largest to smallest mass percentage nitrogen they contain. To rank fertilizers as equivalent, overlap them.

Answer:

Ammonia > Urea > Ammonium nitrate > Ammonium sulphate

Explanation:

Percentage by mass of nitrogen in NH3:

Molar mass of NH3= 17 g/mol

Hence % by mass = 14/17 × 100 = 82.35%

% by mass of NH4NO3

Molar mass of NH4NO3 = 80.043 g/mol

Hence; 28/80.043 × 100 = 34.98%

% by mass of (NH4)2SO4;

Molar mass of (NH4)2SO4= 132.14 g/mol

Hence; 28/132.14 × 100 = 21.19%

% by mass of CH4N2O

Molar mass of urea = 60.0553 g/mol

Hence 28/60.0553 × 100 = 46.62%

 The statement  which is true  is

Fluorine  is more reactive  than nitrogen because fluorine  needs  only  one electron to fill  its  outermost  shell.


     <u><em>Explanation</em></u>

Fluorine  has  electron configuration  of 1S²2S²2P⁵  while nitrogen  has 1S²2S²2P³  electron configuration.

The 2P sub shell  for nitrogen   is  half filled  therefore it is sable  than fluorine.

since  p orbital  can hold a maximum  of  6  electrons ,Fluorine  requires  1 electron  to  completely fill  it's 2P  sub shell  which make it    more  reactive than nitrogen.

Complete combustion of 8.10 g of a hydrocarbon produced 25.9 g of CO2 and 9.27 g of H2O. What is the empirical formula for the h
balu736 [363]

CxHy     +  O2    -->    x CO2     +    y/2  H2O

 

Find the moles of CO2 :     18.9g  /  44 g/mol   =    .430 mol CO2   = .430 mol of C in compound

Find the moles of H2O:      5.79g / 18 g/mol     =     .322 mol H2O   = .166 mol of H in compound

 

Find the mass of C and H in the compound:

                             .430mol  x 12  =  5.16 g C

                              .166mol  x 1g   = .166g H   

 

When you add these up they indicate a mass of 5.33 g for the compound, not 5.80g as you stated in the problem.

Therefore it is likely that either the mass of the CO2 or the mass of H20 produced is incorrect (most likely a typo).

In any event, to find the formula, you would take the moles of C and H and convert to a whole number ratio (this is usually done by dividing both of them by the smaller value).
