Answer:

The answer to your question is: 1538095.2 kg of NH3

Explanation:

MW HNO3 = 63 kg

MW NO2 = 46 kg

                         3 NO2(g) + H2O(l)--- 2 HNO3(aq) + NO(g)

                            3(46) kg--------------   2(63) kg  

                                  x     ---------------  7600000 kg

           x = 7600000 x 138/126 = 8323809.5 kg og NO2

MW NO = 30            

                         2 NO(g) + O2(g)---2 NO2(g)

                       2(30) ------------------2(46)

                        x        ---------------- 8323809.5 kg  

             x = 8323809.5 x 60/92 = 5428571.4 kg of NO

MW NH3 = 17 kg

                      4 NH3(g) + 5 O2(g) 4 NO(g) + 6 H2O(g)

                       4(17) -------------------- 4(30)

                         x ----------------------- 5428571.4

x = 5428571.4 x 34 / 120

x = 1538095.2 kg of NH3

How to balance chemical equations
Sonbull [250]
To balance a chemical equation, you want the same amount of elements to equal the same on both sides.

Step1. Write equation out
[CH4 + Cl2 ---> CCl4 + HCl] 
C:1; H:4; Cl:2      C:1; H:1; CL:5   /// Cl = 5 since 4Cl +  1Cl

The Carbon element is balanced, but Hydrogen isn't.
 So to balance it we will add a coefficient behind HCl, so now 

[CH4 + Cl2 ------> CCl4 + 4HCL]
C:1; H:4; Cl:2      C:1; H:4; CL:8 ///// Carbon and hydrogen are balanced, but now Chlorine is not. Now we balance that element by addind a coefficiant behind CL2////

[CH4 + 4Cl2 -----> CCl4 + 4HCl]
C:1; H:4; Cl:8      C:1; H:4; CL:8  ///// So now that we added a 4*Cl2, it equals to Cl:8. So now what most people want to see is if every element is at its lowest balance, so we see if we can any coefficient lower. Just like simplifying if possible.

Which is the correct equation for the reaction of magnesium with hydrochloric acid to produce hydrogen and magnesium chloride?
zimovet [89]
Answer is: a. Mg + 2HCl → H₂ + MgCl₂.
Reduction hald reaction: 2H⁺ + 2e⁻→ H₂.<span>
Oxidation half reaction: Mg</span>⁰ → Mg²⁺ + 2e⁻.
In this chemical reaction, magnesium lost two electrons (oxidation, change oxidation number from 0 to +2) and hydrogen gain that two electrons (reduction, change oxidation number from +1 to 0).

Assuming an ionization efficiency of 13.0%, how many such photons are needed to ionize 1.00×1016 atoms?
sammy [17]

Answer:

7.69x10^{16}

Explanation:

The ionization is the energy necessary to transform an atom in an anion. So, it's the energy it requires to gain an electron.

This ionization occurs for the photoelectric effect - the emission of electrons by  metal using photons. So, if the efficiency is 100%, 1 photon can ionize 1 atom, but for an effficiency of 13.0%:

N = \frac{1.00x10^{16}}{0.13}

N = 7.69x10^{16}

Where N is the number of photons.
