CHEMISTRY HELP!

1 answer:

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Arsenic is in the same group as Nitrogen - group 5. They all have 5 valence electrons in their outermost shell. To achieve its most stable state - 8 valence electrons (octet rule - elements are most stable when the entire shell is filled) - arsenic needs to gain 3 electrons. Since electrons have a negative charge, the charge of an As ion would be -3.

Try observing the periodic table and how many valence electrons that each element has. From there, you can determine the charges of the elements lithium and strontium. You can guess, I'll help you with those once you attempt to find the charge of those ions.

How many moles of ammonia can be formed from 4.0 mol H2

Bess [88]

Answer: 1. 2.7 moles of ammonia are formed

2. 12.0 moles of hydrogen are required

3. 2.0 moles of nitrogen are required

Explanation:

The balanced chemical equation is:

$N_2+3H_2\rightarrow 2NH_3$

According to stoichiometry:

3 moles of hydrogen form = 2 moles of ammonia

Thus 4.0 moles of hydrogen form = $\frac{2}{3}\times 4.0=2.7moles$ of ammonia

According to stoichiometry:

2 moles of ammonia are formed by = 3 moles of hydrogen

Thus 8.0 moles of ammonia are formed by = $\frac{3}{2}\times 8.0=12.0moles$ of hydrogen

According to stoichiometry:

3 moles of hydrogen react with = 1 mole of nitrogen

Thus 6.0 moles of hydrogen react with = $\frac{1}{3}\times 6.0=2.0moles$ of nitrogen

Consider the following gas phase reaction:

snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

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

now 400 ml of NO × 2 mol of NO2/2 mol of NO

= 400 ml of NO2

now 500 ml of O2 × 2 mol of NO2/1 mol of O2

= 1000 ml of NO2

now 400 ml of NO2 × 1 mol of O2/2 mol of NO

= 200 ml

subtract that from 500 ml of total i.e. 500-200 =300 ml

The total volume of the reaction mixture is 1000 ml -300ml = 700 ml
