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%

Which two particles each have a mass approximately equal to one atomic mass unit?
natali 33 [55]

Answer is: (4) proton and neutron.

One unified atomic mass unit is approximately the mass of one nucleon (proton or neutron).

The unified atomic mass unit (amu) is a standard unit of atom mass.  

One unified atomic mass unit is approximately the mass of one nucleon (1.66·10⁻²⁷ kg).

For example, one carbon atom has mass of 12 amu (unified atomic mass).

The electron has a mass that is approximately 1/1836 that of the proton.

At T = 250 °C the reaction PCl5(g) PCl3(g) + Cl2(g) has an equilibrium constant in terms of pressures Kp = 2.15. (a) Suppose the
Ganezh [65]

Answer:

To the right

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

  • Partial pressure of PCl₅ (pPCl₅) = 0.548 atm
  • Partial pressure of PCl₃ (pCl₃) = 0.780 atm
  • Partial pressure of Cl₂ (pCl₂) = 0.780 atm

Step 2: Write the balanced equation

PCl₅(g) ⇄ PCl₃(g) + Cl₂(g)

Step 3: Calculate the pressure reaction quotient

Q_p = \frac{pPCl_3 \times pCl_2 }{pPCl_5} = \frac{0.780 \times 0.780 }{0.548} =1.11

Step 4: Determine whether the reaction proceeds to the right or to the left as equilibrium is approached

Since <em>Qp < Kp</em>, the reaction will proceed to the right to attain the equilibrium.

The particle that adds mass but no charge to the atomic nucleus is the
andrew-mc [135]

The particle that adds mass but no charge to the atomic nucleus is the neutron.

The nucleus contains both protons and neutrons.

Protons and neutrons have about the same mass.

However, protons have a positive charge, while <em>neutrons have no charge</em>,

Carbon dioxide and water vapor are variable gases because
ehidna [41]

Answer:

Their amount is not consistent at all parts of the atmosphere

Explanation:

Carbon dioxide and water vapor exists as variable gases in the atmosphere because their amount varies from one part to the other.

  • The abundance of variable gases is influenced strongly by activities from the surface.
  • This variability occurs a result of the contribution from from life activities on the  surface.
  • Also, due to properties of the gases, they are not evenly distributed.
  • At certain altitudes, the amount of water vapor can be low.
