It is a molecule because hydrogen is an element.
An element is made up of molecules
You can calculate the excess reactant by subtracting the mass of excess reagent consumed from the total mass of reagent given therefore,
The answer: Theoretical yield is 121.60 g of NH₃
Excess reactant is H₂
Rate limiting reactant is N₂
explanation: 100 g of Nitrogen
100 g of hydrogen
We are required to identify the theoretical yield of the reaction, the excess reactant and the rate limiting reagent.
We first write the equation for the reaction between nitrogen and hydrogen;
N₂ + 3H₂ → 2NH₃
From the reaction 1 mole of nitrogen reacts with 3 moles of Hydrogen gas.
Secondly we determine the moles of nitrogen gas given and hydrogen gas given;
Moles of Nitrogen gas
Moles = Mass ÷ Molar mass
Molar mass of nitrogen gas = 28.0 g/mol
Moles of Nitrogen gas = 100 g ÷ 28 g/mol 3.57 moles
Moles of Hydrogen gas
Molar mass of Hydrogen gas = 2.02 g/mol
Moles = 100 g ÷ 2.02 g/mol
= 49.50 moles
From the mole ratio given by the equation, 1 mole of nitrogen requires 3 moles of Hydrogen gas.
Thus, 3.57 moles of Nitrogen gas requires (3.57 × 3) 10.71 moles of Hydrogen gas.
This means, Nitrogen gas is the rate limiting reagent and hydrogen gas is the excess reactant.
Third calculate the theoretical yield of the reaction.
1 mole of nitrogen reacts to from 2 moles of ammonia gas
Therefore;
Moles of ammonia gas produced = Moles of nitrogen × 2
= 3.57 moles × 2
= 7.14 moles
But; molar mass of Ammonia gas is = 17.03 g/mol
Therefore;
Mass of ammonia gas produced = 7.14 moles × 17.03 g/mol
= 121.59 g
= 121.60 g
Thus, the theoretical amount of ammonia gas produced is 121.60 g
Answer:
669.48 kJ
Explanation:
According to the question, we are required to determine the heat change involved.
We know that, heat change is given by the formula;
Heat change = Mass × change in temperature × Specific heat
In this case;
Change in temperature = Final temp - initial temp
= 99.7°C - 20°C
= 79.7° C
Mass of water is 2000 g ( 2000 mL × 1 g/mL)
Specific heat of water is 4.2 J/g°C
Therefore;
Heat change = 2000 g × 79.7 °C × 4.2 J/g°C
= 669,480 joules
But, 1 kJ = 1000 J
Therefore, heat change is 669.48 kJ
Nothing in particular determines the name of an element, it could range from who discovered it to where it was discovered!
