These problems are a bit interesting. :)
First let's write the molecular formula for ammonium carbonate.
NH4CO3 (Note! The 4 and 3 are subscripts, and not coefficients)
17.6 gNH4CO3
Now to convert to mol of one of our substances we take the percent composition of that particular part of the molecule and multiply it by our starting mass. This is what it looks like using dimensional analyse.
17.6 gNH4CO3 * (Molar Mass of NH4 / Molar Mass of NH4CO3)
Grab a periodic table (or look one up) and find the molar masses for these molecules! Well. In this case I'll do it for you. (Note: I round the molar masses off to two decimal places)
NH4 = 14.01 + 4*1.01 = 18.05 g/mol
NH4CO3 = 14.01 + 4*1.01 + 12.01 + 3*16.00 = 78.06 g/mol
17.6 gNH4CO3 * (18.05 molNH4 / 78.06 molNH4CO3)
= 4.07 gNH4
Now just take the molar mass we found to convert that amount into moles!
4.07 gNH4 * (1 molNH4 / 18.05 gNH4) = 0.225 molNH4
Answer:
True
Explanation:
Esters are generally pleasantly smelling compounds. In fact, the fragrance industry uses esters to produce perfume, as well as uses esters as an ingredient to produce synthetic flavours and cosmetics, all of which have unique and pleasant smells.
Answer:
3.64g
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Mass of NH₃ = 18.1g
Mass of Cu₂O = 90.4g
Unknown:
Limiting reactant = ?
Mass of N₂ formed = ?
Solution:
The reaction equation is given as:
Cu₂O + 2NH₃ → 6Cu + N₂ + 3H₂O
The limiting reactant is the one in short supply in the reaction. Let us find the number of moles of the given species;
Number of moles = 
Molar mass of Cu₂O = 2(63.6) + 16 = 143.2g/mol
Molar mass of NH₃ = 14 + 3(1) = 17g/mol
Number of moles of Cu₂O = 
= 0.13moles
Number of moles of NH₃ = 
= 5.32moles
From this reaction;
1 mole of Cu₂O combines with 2 mole of NH₃
So 0.13moles of Cu₂O will combine with 0.13 x 2 mole of NH₃
= 0.26moles of NH₃
Therefore, Cu₂O is the limiting reactant. Ammonia is in excess;
Mass of N₂;
Mass = number of moles x molar mass
1 mole of Cu₂O will produce 1 mole of N₂
0.13 mole of Cu₂O will produce 0.13 mole of N₂
Mass = 0.13 x (2 x 14) = 3.64g
The balanced chemical reaction is:<span>
</span><span>2C6H6 + 15O2 → 12CO2 + 6H2O</span><span>
We
are given the amount of carbon dioxide to be produced for the reaction. This will
be the starting point of our calculations.
</span>42 g CO2 ( 1 mol CO2 / 44.01 g CO2) ( 2 mol C6H6 / 12 mol CO2 ) (78.1074 g C6H6 / 1 mol C6H6) = 12.42 grams of C6H6
