What is the limiting reagent when a 2.00 g sample of ammonia is mixed with 4.00 g of oxygen?​

Chemistry

UNO [17]2 years ago

Answer:

Ammonia is limiting reactant

Amount of oxygen left  = 0.035 mol

Explanation:

Masa of ammonia = 2.00 g

Mass of oxygen = 4.00 g

Which is limiting reactant = ?

Balance chemical equation:

4NH₃ + 3O₂     →     2N₂ + 6H₂O

Number of moles of ammonia:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 2.00 g/ 17 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.12 mol

Number of moles of oxygen:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 4.00 g/ 32 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.125 mol

Now we will compare the moles of ammonia and oxygen with water and nitrogen.

                      NH₃          :            N₂

                        4             :             2

                      0.12           :           2/4×0.12 = 0.06

                      NH₃         :            H₂O

                        4            :             6

                        0.12       :           6/4×0.12 = 0.18

                       

                       O₂            :            N₂

                        3             :             2

                      0.125        :           2/3×0.125 = 0.08

                        O₂           :            H₂O

                        3              :             6

                        0.125       :           6/3×0.125 = 0.25

The number of moles of water and nitrogen formed by ammonia are less thus ammonia will be limiting reactant.

Amount of oxygen left:

                        NH₃          :             O₂

                           4            :              3

                           0.12       :          3/4×0.12= 0.09

Amount of oxygen react = 0.09 mol

Amount of oxygen left  = 0.125 - 0.09 = 0.035 mol

A sample of 53.0 of carbon dioxide was obtained by heating 1.31 g of calcium carbont. What is the percent yield for this reactio
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

92.04%

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of CO₂ obtained = 53.0 grams

Mass of calcium carbonate heated = 1.31 grams

Now,

the molar mass of the calcium carbonate = 100.08 grams

The number of moles heated in the problem = Mass  / Molar mass

= (1.31 grams) / (100.08 grams/moles)

= 0.013088 moles

now,

1 mol of calcium carbonate yields 1 mol of CO₂

thus,

0.013088 moles of calcium carbonate will yield = 0.013088 mol of CO₂

now,

Theoretical mass of 0.013088 moles of CO₂ will be

= Number of moles × Molar mass of CO₂

= 0.013088 × 44 = 0.5758  grams

Thus, the percent yield for this reaction = \frac{\textup{Actual yield}}{\textup{Theoretical yield}}\times100

or

the percent yield for this reaction = \frac{0.53}{0.5758}\times100

or

the percent yield for this reaction = 92.04%

I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option A. The structural level of a protein least affected by a disruption in hydrogen bonding is the primary level. The other levels are very much affected by hydrogen bonding. Hope this answers the question.
