The answer is: the mass of 6.02 x 1023 representative particles of the element.

The base SI unit for molar mass is kg/mol, but chemist more use g/mol (gram per mole).

For example, molar mas of ammonia is 17.031 g/mol.

M(NH₃) = Ar(N) + 3 · Ar(H) · g/mol.

M(NH₃) = 14.007 + 3 · 1.008 · g/mol.

M(NH₃) = 17.031 g/mol.

The molar mass (M) is the mass of a given substance (in this example ammonia) divided by the amount of substance.

Explain why you get a basic solution when you dissolve NaF in water.

SashulF [63]

Answer:

That's because in water NaF will dissolve to produce Na+,the conjugate base of a strong acid which will not react with water.however F- will behave like a bronsted base, and accept a proton from water.this is called hydrolysis reaction, because a molecule of water is broken up.

a conjugate base is what I leftover after an acid loses a hydrogen ion.

If the pressure in the room is 759.2 torr and the vapor pressure of water is 23.8 torr, what is the pressure of hydrogen gas in

Gwar [14]

The partial pressure of Hydrogen gas can directly be calculated by simply taking the difference of the overall pressure and the vapour pressure of water. That is:

P (H2 gas) = 759.2 torr – 23.8 torr

P (H2 gas) = 735.4 torr

What does temperature indirectly measure? 1)Sound 2)Thermometers 3)Chemical Reactions 4)Heat

attashe74 [19]

Answer:

Heat

Explanation:

Temperature is the average thermal energy (or heat) in a substance. Sound isn't really related, thermometers measure temperature, and chemical reactions can produce heat, but none of those are measured by temperature.

We have 1700 Tonnes of Amoniac every day. How many tonnes of 63% Nitrogen soda we can get?

V125BC [204]

There are 3 equations involved in manufacturing Nitric Acid from Ammonia.

First the ammonia is oxidized:
4NH3 + 5O2 = 4NO + 6H2O

Then for the absorption of the nitrogen oxides.
2NO + O2 = N2O4

Lastly, the N2O4 is further oxidized into Nitric acid.
3N2O4 + 2H2O = 4HNO3 + 2NO

Then run stoichiometry through these equations.
The first equation produces roughly 271,722,938 grams of NO
The second equation produces roughly 416,606,944 grams of N2O4
The last equation produces roughly 380,412,294 grams of HNO3 (nitric acid)

Convert the exact number back into tons, and your answer is: 419.332775 tons.

Rounded, I'm going to say that's 419.33 tons.
Hope this helps! :)

Also, it seems that commercially, Nitric Acid is commonly made by bubbling NO2 into water, rather than using ammonia.

Why was mass lost from the crucible during the reaction?

Alexxandr [17]

If the crucible wasn't covered with a lid the reactants may have produced a gas that was released into the surroundings, or mass may have been lost in the form of water vapour.
