How many kg of carbon dioxide are used per year to produce their arm and hammer baking soda?

1 answer:

3 0

The complete question would be as follows:

700,000 tons of baking soda are produced per year. How many kilograms of carbon dioxide are used per year to produce baking soda?

We calculate as follows:

CO2(g) + NH3(aq) + NaCl(aq) + H2O -----> NaHCO3(s) + NH4Cl(aq)

700000 tons NaHCO3 ( 907.185 kg / 1 ton ) (1 kmole NaHCO3 / 84.0 kg NaHCO3) x (1 kmole CO2 / 1 kmole NaHCO3) x (44.0 kg CO2 / 1 kmole) = 3x10^8 kg CO2

Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.

Ugo [173]

Answer:

$\delta H_{rxn} = -66.0 \ kJ/mole$

Explanation:

Given that:

$3FeO_3_{(s)}+CO_{(g)} \to 2Fe_3O_4_{(s)} +CO_{2(g)} \ \ \delta H = -47.0 \ kJ/mole -- equation (1) \\ \\ \\ Fe_2O_3_{(s)} +3CO_{(g)} \to 2FE_{(s)} + 3CO_{2(g)} \ \ \delta H = -25.0 \ kJ/mole -- equation (2) \\ \\ \\ Fe_3O_4_{(s)} + CO_{(g)} \to 3FeO_{(s)} + CO_{2(g)} \ \delta H = 19.0 \ kJ/mole -- equation (3)$

From equation (3) , multiplying (-1) with equation (3) and interchanging reactant with the product side; we have:

$3FeO_{(s)} + CO_{2(g)} \to Fe_3O_4_{(s)} + CO_{(g)} \ \delta H = -19.0 \ kJ/mole -- equation (4)$

Multiplying (2) with equation (4) ; we have:

$6FeO_{(s)} + 2CO_{2(g)} \to 2Fe_3O_4_{(s)} + 2CO_{(g)} \ \delta H = -38.0 \ kJ/mole -- equation (5)$

From equation (1) ; multiplying (-1) with equation (1); we have:

$2Fe_3O_4_{(s)} +CO_{2(g)} \to 3FeO_3_{(s)}+CO_{(g)} \ \ \delta H = 47.0 \ kJ/mole -- equation (6)$

From equation (2); multiplying (3) with equation (2); we have:

$3 Fe_2O_3_{(s)} +9CO_{(g)} \to 6FE_{(s)} + 9CO_{2(g)} \ \ \delta H = -75.0 \ kJ/mole -- equation (7)$

Now; Adding up equation (5), (6) & (7) ; we get:

$6FeO_{(s)} + 2CO_{2(g)} \to 2Fe_3O_4_{(s)} + 2CO_{(g)} \ \delta H = -38.0 \ kJ/mole -- equation (5)$

$2Fe_3O_4_{(s)} +CO_{2(g)} \to 3FeO_3_{(s)}+CO_{(g)} \ \ \delta H = 47.0 \ kJ/mole -- equation (6)$

$3 Fe_2O_3_{(s)} +9CO_{(g)} \to 6FE_{(s)} + 9CO_{2(g)} \ \ \delta H = -75.0 \ kJ/mole -- equation (7)$

$FeO \ \ \ + \ \ \ CO \ \ \to \ \ \ \ Fe_{(s)} + \ \ CO_{2(g)} \ \ \ \delta H = - 66.0 \ kJ/mole$

$\delta H_{rxn} = \delta H_1 + \delta H_2 + \delta H_3$ (According to Hess Law)

$\delta H_{rxn} = (-38.0 + 47.0 + (-75.0)) \ kJ/mole$

$\delta H_{rxn} = -66.0 \ kJ/mole$

Which regions on the periodic table can adopt positive and negative oxidation numbers?

Dennis_Churaev [7]

The region(s) of the periodic table which are made up of elements that can adopt both positive and negative oxidation numbers are the “non-metal” region. As we can see on the periodic table, the elements situated at the right side of the table have two oxidation states, one positive and the other a negative.

20 ML of a gas at 200 K is heated until the new volume is 55ML what is the final temperature of the gas

MrRa [10]

Answer:

T2 = 550K

Explanation:

From Charles law;

V1/T1 = V2/T2

Where;

V1 is initial volume

V2 is final volume

T1 is initial temperature

T2 is final temperature

We are given;

V1 = 20 mL

V2 = 55 mL

T1 = 200 K

Thus from V1/T1 = V2/T2, making T2 the subject;

T2 = (V2 × T1)/V1

T2 = (55 × 200)/20

T2 = 550K

write an activity to show the change in state and change in temperature during a chemical reaction(change)

Paha777 [63]

If a piece of charcoal is taken and set on fire it will evolve CO2 and heat. Charcoal is solid but carbon dioxide is gaseous. This is an example of change of state and evolve of heat during chemical reaction.
