We get 1700 Tonnes of Ammonia every day. How many tonnes of 63% Nitric acid we can get?

There are 3 equations involved in manufacturing Nitric Acid from Ammonia. 

First the ammonia is oxidized:
4NH3 + 5O2 = 4NO + 6H2O

Then for the absorption of the nitrogen oxides.
2NO + O2 = N2O4

Lastly, the N2O4 is further oxidized into Nitric acid.
3N2O4 + 2H2O = 4HNO3 + 2NO

Then run stoichiometry through these equations.
The first equation produces roughly 271,722,938 grams of NO
The second equation produces roughly 416,606,944 grams of N2O4
The last equation produces roughly 380,412,294 grams of HNO3 (nitric acid)

Convert the exact number back into tons, and your answer is: <span>419.332775 tons.

Rounded, I'm going to say that's 419.33 tons.
Hope this helps! :)

Also, it seems that commercially, Nitric Acid is commonly made by bubbling NO2 into water, rather than using ammonia.

Mass of NaHCO3 sample (g): 1.20 g
sasho [114]

Answer: (22.98977 g Na/mol) + (1.007947 g H/mol) + (12.01078 g C/mol) + ((15.99943 g O/mol) x 3) = 84.0067 g NaHCO3/mol

9.

(1.20 g NaHCO3) / (84.0067 g NaHCO3/mol) = 0.0143 mol NaHCO3

10.

Supposing the question is asking about "how many moles" of CO2. And supposing the reaction to be something like:

NaHCO3 + H{+} = Na{+} + H2O + CO2

(0.0143 mol NaHCO3) x (1 mol CO2 / 1 mol NaHCO3) = 0.0143 mol CO2 in theory

11.

n = PV / RT = (1 atm) x (0.250 L) / ((0.0821 L atm/K mol) x (298 K)) = 0.0102 mol CO2

12.

(0.0143 mol - 0.0102 mol) / (0.0143 mol) = 0.287 = 28.7%

What are these associated with the solar wind
Serjik [45]

Answer:

The solar wind is a stream of charged particles released from the upper atmosphere of the Sun, called the corona. ... Its particles can escape the Sun's gravity because of their high energy resulting from the high temperature of the corona, which in turn is a result of the coronal magnetic field.

Answer:

Insight

Explanation:

Insight is the understanding of a specific cause and effect within a specific context. The term insight can have several related meanings:

  • a piece of information
  • the act or result of understanding the inner nature of things or of seeing intuitively (called noesis in Greek)
  • an introspection
  • the power of acute observation and deduction, discernment, and perception, called intellection or noesis
  • an understanding of cause and effect based on identification of relationships and behaviors within a model, context, or scenario (see artificial intelligence)

An insight that manifests itself suddenly, such as understanding how to solve a difficult problem, is sometimes called by the German word Aha-Erlebnis. The term was coined by the German psychologist and theoretical linguist Karl Bühler. It is also known as an epiphany, eureka moment or (for cross word solvers) the penny dropping moment (PDM). Sudden sickening realizations identifying a problem rather than solving it, so Uh-oh rather than Aha moments are further seen in negative insight. A further example of negative insight is chagrin which is annoyance at the obviousness of a solution missed up until the point of insight.
