Answer:

2.61 g of NO will be formed

The limiting reagent is the O₂

Explanation:

The reaction is:

4NH₃  +  5O₂  →  4NO  +  6H₂O

We convert the mass of the reactants to moles:

3.25g / 17 g/mol = 0.191 moles of NH₃

3.50g / 32 g/mol =0.109 moles of O₂

Let's determine the limiting reactant by stoichiometry:

4 moles of ammonia react with 5 moles of oxygen

Then, 0.191 moles of ammonia will react with (0.191 . 5) / 4 = 0.238 moles of oxygen. We only have 0.109 moles of O₂ and we need 0.238, so as the oxygen is not enough, this is the limiting reagent

Ratio with NO is 5:4

5 moles of oxygen produce 4 moles of NO

0.109 moles will produce (0.109 . 4)/ 5 = 0.0872 moles of NO

We convert the moles to mass, to get the answer

0.0872 mol . 30g / 1 mol = 2.61 g

Explain why you hear a “whoosh” sound when you open a can containing a carbonated drink. Which gas law applies?
Lana71 [14]

Carbonated drinks have the air under pressure so that carbon bubbles are forced into the drink, keeping it carbonated. So when you open a can, the air under pressure in the can comes out of the can at a high speed, making a "whooshing" sound. The gas law that applies to this concept is the Boyle's Law (PV=k or P1V1=P2V2).

When the temperature of the gas changes from cold to hot, the amount of pressure is ___________.
Klio2033 [76]
The pressure would increase. When the temperature change form cold to hot, the gas will find ways to escape from containment. Thus, if it cannot escape that pressure will keep on increasing as the temperature rises.

Describe the atomic theory of atoms
alexandr402 [8]

Answer: Below

                   |

                   |

                   ^

Explanation:

The atomic theory is that all matter is made up of tiny units or particles called atoms. This theory describes the characteristics, structure and behavior of atoms as well as the components that make up atoms. Furthermore, the theory states that all elements are made up of identical atoms.

The atomic theory is a theory in the study of chemistry that states atoms are the building blocks of matter. Atoms contain protons, neutrons and electrons. Protons, which have a positive charge, and neutrons are found in the nucleus of the atom. Electrons, which have a negative charge, orbit the nucleus.

According to the atomic theory, all elements contain atoms. The difference is the number of protons, electrons and neutrons in that atom. For instance, hydrogen contains one proton and one electron but no neutrons. Oxygen, on the other hand contains eight protons, electrons and neutrons. The difference in protons, electrons and neutrons determines the stability and the other properties of any particular element. These elements are grouped according to their atomic masses, which depend on the number of protons and neutrons in each of the atoms. Because oxygen has more protons and neutrons than hydrogen, it has a higher atomic mass.

Explain what Happens at the saturation point when adding salt to water at room temperature.
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

See below  

Step-by-step explanation:

You won't see much happening. The solution is saturated, so the salt will fall to the bottom of the container and sit there. It will not dissolve.

However, at the atomic level, Na⁺ and Cl⁻ ions are being pulled from the surface of the crystals and going into solution as hydrated ions. At other places, Na⁺ and Cl⁻ ions are returning to the surface of the crystals.

The process is

NaCl(s) ⇌ Na⁺(aq) + Cl⁻(aq)

The rates of the forward and reverse processes are equal, so you see no net change.
