Explanation:

crude oil takes thousands of years before forming.

it takes place when animals and plants die...later they decompose especially the ones in water ..the ones on land burn as fossil fuels and go back to the atmosphere through combustion..the decomposed materials turn into crude oil in the ocean where it's extracted and separated through fractional distillation into several oils such diesel, petroleum, coalter e.t.c

Leto [7]

Answer:

ΔH⁰(11.4g NH₄NO₃) = -30.59Kj (4 sig. figs. ~mass of NH₄NO₃(s) given) (exothermic)

Explanation:

3NH₄NO₃(s) + C₁₀H₂₂(l) + 14O₂(g) => 3N₂(g) + 17H₂O(g) + 10CO₂(g)

ΔH⁰(f): 3(-365.6)Kj 1(-301)Kj 14(0)Kj 3(0)Kj 17(-241.8)Kj 10(-393.5)Kj

= -1096.8Kj = -301Kj = 0Kj = 0Kj = -4110.6Kj = -3930.5Kj

ΔHₙ°(rxn) = ∑ (ΔH˚(f)products) - ∑(ΔH˚(f)reactants)

= [3(0)Kj + 17(-241.8)Kj + (-393.5)Kj] - [(-(1096.8)Kj + (-301)Kj + (0)Kj]

= [-(8041.1) - (-1397.8)]Kj

= -6643.3Kj (for 3 moles NH₄NO₃ used in above equation)

∴ Standard Heat of Rxn = -6643.3Kj/3moles = -214.8Kj/mole NH₄NO₃(s)

ΔH°(rxn for 14.11g NH₄NO₃(s)) = (11.4g/80.04g·mol⁻¹)(-214.8Kj/mol) = 30.5937Kj ≅ 30.59Kj (4 sig. figs. ~mass of NH₄NO₃(s) given)

Be sure to answer all parts. Nitric oxide (NO) reacts with oxygen gas to form nitrogen dioxide (NO2), a dark brown gas: 2NO(g) +

notka56 [123]

Answer: NO is the limiting reagent in the given reaction and 0.857 moles of $NO_2$ will be produced.

Explanation:

Limiting reagent is defined as the reagent which is present in less amount and it limits the formation of products.

Excess reagent is defined as the reagent which is present in large amount.

For the given chemical reaction:

$2NO(g)+O_2(g)\rightarrow 2NO_2(g)$

We are given:

Moles of NO = 0.857 mol

Moles of oxygen = 0.498 mol

By stoichiometry of the reaction:

If 2 moles of NO reacts with 1 mole of oxygen gas.

So, 0.857 moles of NO will react with = $\frac{1}{2}\times 0.857=0.4285mol$ of $O_2$

As, the given amount of oxygen gas is more than the required amount. So, it is considered as an excess reagent.

Thus, NO is considered as the limiting reagent because it limits the formation of products.

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

If 2 moles of NO produces 2 moles of nitrogen dioxide gas.

So, 0.857 moles of NO will produce = $\frac{2}{2}\times 0.857=0.857mol$ of $NO_2$

Hence, NO is the limiting reagent in the given reaction and 0.857 moles of $NO_2$ will be produced.
