Answer:
- <u>two molecules of ammonia are formed by the reaction of one nitrogen and three hydrogen molecules.</u>
Explanation:
The balanced chemical equation provides information on:
- <u>Reactants</u>: those are the compounds that appear of the left side of the equation, each with its chemical formula.
- <u>Products</u>: those are the compounds that appear on the right side of the equation, again, each with its chemical formula.
- <u>Ratio</u>: the coefficients of each compound (the number to the left of the chemical formula) represent the ratio of the number of molecules that react and are formed.
In the given equation you have:
- Equation: N₂ + 3H₂ → 2NH₃
- The coefficients are 1 for nitrogen, 3 for hydrogen, and 2 for ammonia. Hence, 2 molecules of ammonia are formed by the reaction of 1 molecule of nitrogen and 3 molecules of hydrogen.
C. The mass number is the amount of Protons and electrons there are combined, so 200 - 80 is 120.
The molecular weight of a given compound would simply the
sum of the molar weights of each component.
The molar masses of the elements are:
C = 12 amu
H = 1 amu
N = 14 amu
O = 16 amu
where 1 amu = 1 g / mol
Since there are 6 C, 5 H, 1 N and 2 O, therefore the
total molecular weight is:
molecular weight = 6 (12 amu) + 5 (1 amu) + 1 (14 amu) +
2 (16 amu)
molecular weight = 123 amu
Therefore the molecular weight of nitrobenzene is 123 amu
or which is exactly equivalent to 123 g / mol.
