Answer:

Option B. 4NH3(g) + 5O2(g) —> 4NO(g) + 6H2O(g)

Explanation:

The reaction between ammonia, NH3 and oxygen, O2, will produce nitric oxide and water as shown below:

NH3(g) + O2(g) —> NO(g) + H2O(g)

Now, let us balance the equation.

This is illustrated below:

NH3(g) + O2(g) —> NO(g) + H2O(g)

There are 3 atoms of H on the left side and 2 atoms on the right side. It can be balance by putting 4 in front of NH3 and 6 in front of H2O as shown below:

4NH3(g) + O2(g) —> NO(g) + 6H2O(g)

There are 4 atoms of N on the left side and 1 atom on the right side. It can be balance by putting 4 in front of NO as shown below:

4NH3(g) + O2(g) —> 4NO(g) + 6H2O(g)

Now, the are 2 atoms of O on the left side and a total of 10 atoms on the right side. It can be balance by putting 5 in front of O2 as shown below:

4NH3(g) + 5O2(g) —> 4NO(g) + 6H2O(g)

Now, we can see that the equation is balanced.

Therefore, option B gives the balanced chemical equation for the reaction.

State and explain the relative change in the pH and in the buffer-component concentration ratio, [NaA]/[HA], for each of the fol
melisa1 [442]

When pure HA is added to the buffer, the buffer component ratio and the pH decrease.

<h3>State and explain the relative change in the pH and in the buffer-component concentration ratio, [NaA]/[HA] for the dissolve of pure HA in the buffer.</h3>

When pure HA is added to the buffer, the buffer component ratio and the pH decrease. The added HA increases the concentrations of NA and HA. However, there is a greater relative increase in the concentration of HA. Hence, the ratio of [NaA]/[HA] decreases, causing the solution to become more acidic.

The capacity of a buffer to withstand pH change is measured. The concentration of the buffer's components namely, the acid and its conjugate base determine this ability. Greater buffer capacity is associated with higher buffer concentration.

6. If 0.500 mol NaN3 react, what mass in grams of nitrogen will result?
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

21 g of N₂ are produced by the decomposition

Explanation:

The reaction is: 2 NaN3 → 2 Na + 3 N2

2 moles of sodium nitride decompose in order to produce 2 moles of Na and 3 moles of nitrogen gas.

According to stoichiometry, ratio is 2:3. Therefore we say,

2 moles of nitride can produce 3 moles of N₂

Then, 0.5 moles of NaN₃ will produce (0.5 . 3) / 2 = 0.75 moles of N₂

We convert the moles to mass, to find the answer

0.75 mol . 28 g / 1 mol = 21 g
