Answer:

Boron and Aluminum

Explanation:

If you write the electron configuration for boron and aluminum, you get:

$1s^22s^22p^1$ for boron and $1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^1$ for aluminum. Both have 3 valance electrons and has 2 electrons in a s-orbital and 1 in a p-orbital. These valance electron similarities are based on the column/group the elements are. Therefore, Boron and Aluminum have similar chemical behaviours and similar arrangement of outer/valance electrons.

A chemist mixes oxygen gas and hydrogen gas to form water, which is composed of one oxygen and two hydrogen atoms per molecule.

Flauer [41]

When a chemist mixes oxygen gas and hydrogen gas to form water, which is composed of one oxygen and two hydrogen atoms per molecule. The hydrogen and oxygen atoms bounds together by making a bond called covalent bond. In a covalent bond, two atoms are bound together because they each want to "share" each other's electrons.

If you feed 100 kg of N2 gas and 100 kg of H2 gas into a

torisob [31]

Answer : The mass of ammonia produced can be, 121.429 k

Solution : Given,

Mass of $N_2$ = 100 kg = 100000 g

Mass of $H_2$ = 100 kg = 100000 g

Molar mass of $N_2$ = 28 g/mole

Molar mass of $H_2$ = 2 g/mole

Molar mass of $NH_3$ = 17 g/mole

First we have to calculate the moles of $N_2$ and $H_2$ .

$\text{ Moles of }N_2=\frac{\text{ Mass of }N_2}{\text{ Molar mass of }N_2}=\frac{100000g}{28g/mole}=3571.43moles$

$\text{ Moles of }H_2=\frac{\text{ Mass of }H_2}{\text{ Molar mass of }H_2}=\frac{100000g}{2g/mole}=50000moles$

Now we have to calculate the limiting and excess reagent.

The balanced chemical reaction is,

$N_2+3H_2\rightarrow 2NH_3$

From the balanced reaction we conclude that

As, 1 mole of $N_2$ react with 3 mole of $H_2$

So, 3571.43 moles of $N_2$ react with $3571.43\times 3=10714.29$ moles of $H_2$

From this we conclude that, $H_2$ is an excess reagent because the given moles are greater than the required moles and $N_2$ is a limiting reagent and it limits the formation of product.

Now we have to calculate the moles of $NH_3$

From the reaction, we conclude that

As, 1 mole of $N_2$ react to give 2 mole of $NH_3$

So, 3571.43 moles of $N_2$ react to give $3571.43\times 2=7142.86$ moles of $NH_3$

Now we have to calculate the mass of $NH_3$

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

$\text{ Mass of }NH_3=(7142.86moles)\times (17g/mole)=121428.62g=121.429kg$

Therefore, the mass of ammonia produced can be, 121.429 kg
