Answer:

Coal-fired plants produce electricity by burning coal in a boiler to produce steam. The steam produced, under tremendous pressure, flows into a turbine, which spins a generator to create electricity. The steam is then cooled, condensed back into water and returned to the boiler to start the process over.

In 1869 he published a table of the elements organized by increasing atomic mass.

Mendeleev is called the "father of the modern periodic table

stated that if the atomic weight of an element caused it to be placed in the wrong group, then the weight must be wrong. (He corrected the atomic masses of Be, In, and U)

was so confident in his table that he used it to predict the physical properties of three elements that were yet unknown.

After the discovery of these unknown elements between 1874 and 1885, and the fact that Mendeleev's predictions for Sc, Ga, and Ge were amazingly close to the actual values, his table was generally accepted.

However, in spite of Mendeleev's great achievement, problems arose when new elements were discovered and more accurate atomic weights determined.

The reaction of NH3 and O2 forms NO and water. The NO can be used to convert P4 to P4O6, forming N2 in the process. The P4O6 can

Answer : The mass of $PH_3$ produced from the reaction is, 0.651 grams.

Explanation :

The chemical reactions used are:

(1) $4NH_3+5O_2\rightarrow 4NO+6H_2O$

(2) $6NO+P_4\rightarrow P_4O_6+3N_2$

(3) $P_4O_6+6H_2O\rightarrow 4H_3PO_4$

(4) $4H_3PO_4\rightarrow PH_3+3H_3PO_4$

First we have to calculate the moles of $NH_3$

$\text{Moles of }NH_3=\frac{\text{Mass of }NH_3}{\text{Molar mass of }NH_3}$

Molar mass of $NH_3$ = 17 g/mol

$\text{Moles of }NH_3=\frac{1.95g}{17g/mol}=0.115mol$

Now we have to calculate the moles of $NO$

From the balanced chemical reaction 1, we conclude that:

As, 4 moles of $NH_3$ react to give 4 moles of $NO$

So, 0.115 moles of $NH_3$ react to give 0.115 moles of $NO$

Now we have to calculate the moles of $P_4O_6$

From the balanced chemical reaction 2, we conclude that:

As, 6 moles of $NO$ react to give 1 moles of $P_4O_6$

So, 0.115 moles of $NO$ react to give $\frac{0.115}{6}=0.0192$ moles of $P_4O_6$

Now we have to calculate the moles of $H_3PO_4$

From the balanced chemical reaction 3, we conclude that:

As, 1 moles of $P_4O_6$ react to give 4 moles of $H_3PO_4$

So, 0.0192 moles of $P_4O_6$ react to give $0.0192\times 4=0.0768$ moles of $H_3PO_4$

Now we have to calculate the moles of $PH_3$

From the balanced chemical reaction 4, we conclude that:

As, 4 moles of $H_3PO_4$ react to give 1 moles of $PH_3$

So, 0.0768 moles of $H_3PO_4$ react to give $\frac{0.0768}{4}=0.0192$ moles of $PH_3$

Now we have to calculate the mass of $PH_3$

$\text{ Mass of }PH_3=\text{ Moles of }PH_3\times \text{ Molar mass of }PH_3$

Molar mass of $PH_3$ = 33.9 g/mole

$\text{ Mass of }PH_3=(0.0192moles)\times (33.9g/mole)=0.651g$

Therefore, the mass of $PH_3$ produced from the reaction is, 0.651 grams.
