Urea, CH4N2O (s), is manufactured from NH3 (g) and CO2 (g). H2O (l) is another product of this reaction. An experiment is starte

d with 2.6 grams of NH3 (g) added into a reaction vessel with CO2 (g).
Write the balanced equation for this reaction, being sure to include physical states. Based on the balanced equation above, calculate the following:
a. the theoretical yield of urea in grams that can be made from the NH3
b. the actual amount of urea made if the percent yield for this reaction is 34%.

Answer:

a. 4.41 g of Urea

b. 1.5 g of Urea

Explanation:

To start the problem, we define the reaction:

2NH₃ (g) +  CO₂ (g) → CH₄N₂O (s)  +  H₂O(l)

We only have mass of ammonia, so we assume the carbon dioxide is in excess and ammonia is the limiting reactant:

2.6 g . 1mol / 17g = 0.153 moles of ammonia

Ratio is 2:1. 2 moles of ammonia can produce 1 mol of urea

0.153 moles ammonia may produce, the half of moles

0153 /2 = 0.076 moles of urea

To state the theoretical yield we convert moles to mass:

0.076 mol . 58 g/mol = 4.41 g

That's the 100 % yield reaction

If the percent yield, was 34%:

4.41 g . 0.34 = 1.50 g of urea were produced.

Formula is (Yield produced / Theoretical yield) . 100 → Percent yield

When comparing the two elements K and Ge , the more metallic element is__________ based on periodic trends alone.
Inessa [10]

Answer:

Option D and Option B

When comparing the two elements K and Ge , the more metallic element is_____K_____ based on periodic trends alone.

When comparing the two elements Sb and Pb , the more metallic element is_____Pb______ based on periodic

Explanation:

The metallic characteristic increases when we move down a column in a periodic table or when we move left in the row.

Potassium and Germanium are located on the same row, but germanium lies on the right side of potassium. Thus, potassium (K) is more metallic than Germanium (Ge)

While Lead (Pb) lies to left of Sb in the adjacent column and is also lies below Sb. Hence Pb is more metallic than Sb

A sample of ammonia ^NH3h gas is completely decomposed to nitrogen and hydrogen gases over heated iron wool. If the total pressu
icang [17]

Answer : The partial pressure of N_2 and H_2 is, 216.5 mmHg and 649.5 mmHg

Explanation :

According to the Dalton's Law, the partial pressure exerted by component 'i' in a gas mixture is equal to the product of the mole fraction of the component and the total pressure.

Formula used :

p_i=X_i\times p_T

X_i=\frac{n_i}{n_T}

So,

p_i=\frac{n_i}{n_T}\times p_T

where,

p_i = partial pressure of gas

X_i = mole fraction of gas

p_T = total pressure of gas

n_i = moles of gas

n_T = total moles of gas

The balanced decomposition of ammonia reaction will be:

2NH_3\rightarrow N_2+3H_2

Now we have to determine the partial pressure of N_2 and H_2

p_{N_2}=\frac{n_{N_2}}{n_T}\times p_T

Given:

n_{N_2}=1\\\\n_{H_2}=3\\\\n_{T}=4\\\\p_T=866mmHg

p_{N_2}=\frac{1}{4}\times (866mmHg)=216.5mmHg

and,

p_{H_2}=\frac{n_{H_2}}{n_T}\times p_T

Given:

n_{H_2}=1\\\\n_{H_2}=3\\\\n_{T}=4\\\\p_T=866mmHg

p_{H_2}=\frac{3}{4}\times (866mmHg)=649.5mmHg

Thus, the partial pressure of N_2 and H_2 is, 216.5 mmHg and 649.5 mmHg
