Alkanes are saturated hydrocarbon that contains only single bonds, whereas Alkenes and Alkynes are unsaturated hydrocarbons which contain one or more double bond and triple bonds.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • A saturated hydrocarbon with an only single bond is called alkanes. Ethane consisting of two carbon atoms that are bonded with a single bond and six hydrogen atoms sharing the other valence electron of carbon atoms. The molecular structure of alkane is CnH2n+2.
  • An unsaturated hydrocarbon with a two bond is called alkenes. Ethene consisting of two carbon atoms double-bonded to each other. The molecular structure of alkene is CnH2n.
  • An unsaturated hydrocarbon with a triple bond is called as alkynes. It involves sharing three pairs of electrons. The molecular structure of alkyne is CnH2n-2.

Sand is converted to pure silicon in a three step process. the third step is sicl4(g) + 2mg(s) → 2mgcl2(s) + si(s) δh = –625.6 k
JulijaS [17]
The reaction is that,
1 mole is SiCL4 will produce 1 mole of Si(s) Since there is 1 to 1 relationship then we just multiply the enthalpy of reaction by the number of moles
Enthalpy = -625.5 kJ/mole × 12.5 Moles 
= -7,818.75 KJ
= -0.78 ×10⁴KJ

How many grams of ammonia are produced when 1.0 mole of nitrogen reacts
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer: N2(g) + 3H2-> 2NH3(g)  This is the balanced equation

Note the mole ratio between N2, H2 and NH3.  It is 1 : 3 : 2  This will be important.

 

moles N2 present = 28.0 g N2 x 1 mole N2/28 g = 1 mole N2 present

moles H2 present = 25.0 g H2 x 1 mole H2/2 g = 12.5 moles H2 present

Based on mole ratio, N2 is limiting in this situation because there is more than enough H2 but not enough N2.

 

moles NH3 that can be produced = 1 mole N2 x 2 moles NH3/mole N2 = 2 moles NH3 can be produced  

grams of NH3 that can be produced = 2 moles NH3 x 17 g/mole = 34 grams of NH3 can be produced

 

NOTE:  The key to this problem is recognizing that N2 is limiting, and therefore limits how much NH3 can be produced.

Explanation: here you go!! good luck! hope this helped
