Answer:
The general equation for an exothermic reaction is: Reactants → Products + Energy.
•The atomic number of an atom is the number of protons it has. If the atomic number is 20 then we know the atom has 20 protons.
•The mass number of an atom is the total number of protons and neutrons the atom contains. The mass number is 41 and the number of protons is 20, just subtract 20 from 41 and you will get the number of neutrons: 41 - 20= 21. The atoms has 21 neutrons.
•The number of electrons found in an atom is equal to the number of protons. The atoms has 20 protons which means it has 20 electrons.
So, the answer is:
B) 20 protons, 20 electrons, and 21 neutrons
Answer:
Evaporation
Explanation:
Though it doesn't require high temperatures to do so
the balanced equation for the formation of ammonia is
N₂ + 3H₂ ---> 2NH₃
molar ratio of N₂ to NH₃ is 1:2
mass of N₂ reacted is 8.0 g
therefore number of N₂ moles reacted is - 8.0 g / 28 g/mol = 0.286 mol
according to the molar ratio,
1 mol of N₂ will react to give 2 mol of NH₃, assuming nitrogen is the limiting reactant
therefore 0.286 mol of N₂ should give - 2 x 0.286 mol = 0.572 mol of NH₃
therefore mass of NH₃ formed is - 0.572 mol x 17 g/mol = 9.72 g
a mass of 9.72 mol of NH₃ is formed
