The given chemical reaction given above is already balanced such that the number of atoms in the left hand side of the equation is equal to that of the right hand side. Using the dimensional analysis, proper conversion factors and the molar masses,
mass of nitrogen = (0.129 g H₂)(1 mol H₂/2 g H₂)(1 mol N₂/3 mol H₂)(28 g N₂/1 mol N₂)
mass of nitrogen = 0.602 g N₂
Therefore, 0.602 g of nitrogen will be required for he reaction.
Answer:
2HgS + 3O2 → 2HgO + 2SO2
The coefficients are: 2, 3, 2, 2
Explanation:
HgS + O2 → HgO + SO2
The equation can be balance as follow:
Put 3 in front of O2 as shown below:
HgS + 3O2 → HgO + SO2
Now we can see that there are 6 atoms of O on the left side of the equation and a total of 3 atoms on the right side. It can be balance by putting 2 in front of HgO and SO2 as shown below:
HgS + 3O2 → 2HgO + 2SO2
Now we have 2 atoms of both Hg and S on the right side and 1atom each on the left. It can be balance by putting 2 in front of HgS as shown below:
2HgS + 3O2 → 2HgO + 2SO2
Now the equation is balanced.
The coefficients are: 2, 3, 2, 2
The law of conservation of mass(matter) states that matter(mass) can neither be created nor destroyed during a chemical reaction but changes from one form to another. An unbalanced equation suggests that matter has been created or destroyed. While a balanced equation proofs that matter can never be created but changes to different form. This is the more reason we have count the atoms of an element on both side of the equation to see if they are balanced irrespective of the new form they assume in the product
Answer:
-2.86x10³ kJ
Explanation:
The enthalpy of a reaction (ΔH) is defined as the heat produced or consumed by a reaction. In the reaction:
2 C₂H₆(g) + 7 O₂(g) → 4 CO₂(g) + 6 H₂O(g)
The ΔH is the heat envolved in the reaction per 2 moles of C₂H₆. 1.43x10³ kJ are involved when 1 mole reacts. Thus, when 2 moles react, involved heat is:
1.43x10³ kJ ₓ 2 = <em>2.86x10³ kJ</em>. As the reaction is a combustion reaction (Produce CO₂ and H₂O), the heat involved in the reaction is <em>PRODUCED, </em>that means ΔH is negative, <em>-2.86x10³ kJ</em>
