Answer:

1) The limiting reactant is N₂ because it is present with the lower no. of moles than H₂.

2) The amount (in grams) of excess reactant H₂ = 4.39 g.

Explanation:

  • Firstly, we should write the balanced equation of the reaction:

<em>N₂ + 3H₂ → 2NH₃.</em>

<em>1) To determine the limiting reactant of the reaction:</em>

  • From the stichiometry of the balanced equation, 1.0 mole of N₂ reacts with 3.0 moles of H₂ to produce 2.0 moles of NH₃.
  • This means that <em>N₂ reacts with H₂ with a ratio of (1:3).</em>
  • We need to calculate the no. of moles (n) of N₂ (5.23 g) and H₂ (5.52 g) using the relation:<em> n = mass / molar mass.</em>

The no. of moles of N₂ in (5.23 g) = mass / molar mass = (5.23 g) / (28.00 g/mol) = 0.1868 mol.

The no. of moles of H₂ (5.52 g) = mass / molar mass = (5.52 g) / (2.015 g/mol) = 2.74 mol.

  • From the stichiometry, N₂ reacts with H₂ with a ratio of (1:3).

The ratio of the reactants of N₂ (5.23 g, 0.1868 mol) to H₂ (5.52 g, 2.74 mol) is (1:14.67).

∴ The limiting reactant is N₂ because it is present with the lower no. of moles than H₂.

0.1868 mol of N₂ react completely with 0.5604 mol of H₂ and the remaining of H₂ is in excess.

<em>2) To determine the amount (in grams) of excess reactant of the reaction:</em>

  • As showed in the part 1, The limiting reactant is N₂ because it is present with the lower no. of moles than H₂.
  • Also, 0.1868 mol of N₂ react completely with 0.5604 mol of H₂ and the remaining of H₂ is in excess.
  • The no. of moles are in excess of H₂ = 2.74 mol - 0.5604 mol (reacted with N₂) = 2.1796 mol.
  • ∴ The amount (in grams) of excess reactant H₂ = n (excess moles) x molar mass = (2.1796 mol)((2.015 g/mol) = 4.39 g.

If the atomic weight/atomic mass is 0 what does it mean?
Gwar [14]

Answer: Neutron matter is equivalent to a chemical element with atomic number 0, which is to say that it is equivalent to a species of atoms having no protons in their atomic nuclei. Neutron matter decays quickly into hydrogen. Neutron matter has no electronic structure on account of its total lack of electrons.

Answer:

5.06atm

Explanation:

Using the combined gas law equation;

P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

Where;

P1 = initial pressure (atm)

P2 = final pressure (atm)

V1 = initial volume (Litres)

V2 = final volume (Litres)

T1 = initial temperature (K)

T2 = final temperature (K)

According to the information provided in this question;

P1 = 1.34 atm

P2 = ?

V1 = 5.48 L

V2 = 1.32 L

T1 = 61 °C = 61 + 273 = 334K

T2 = 31 °C = 31 + 273 = 304K

Using P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

1.34 × 5.48/334 = P2 × 1.32/304

7.34/334 = 1.32P2/304

Cross multiply

334 × 1.32P2 = 304 × 7.34

440.88P2 = 2231.36

P2 = 2231.36/440.88

P2 = 5.06

The final pressure is 5.06atm

Answer:

from producers to consumers

Explanation:

Energy is transferred between organisms in food webs from producers to consumers. The energy is used by organisms to carry out complex tasks. The vast majority of energy that exists in food webs originates from the sun and is converted (transformed) into chemical energy by the process of photosynthesis in plants
