Answer: The balanced equation for overall reaction is:
(CH3)3AuPH3 ----> C2H6 + (CH3)AuPH3
Explanation:
The reaction mechanism is given as follows:
Step 1: (CH3)3AuPH3 ↔ (CH3)3Au + PH3 (fast)
Step 2: (CH3)3Au → C2H6 + (CH3)Au (slow)
Step 3: (CH3)Au + PH3 → (CH3)AuPH3 (fast)
To balance this equation, firstly, we conduct proper atom count for each steps of the reaction mechanism.
It is important to note that for a reaction that involves several steps, the rate law is normally derived from the slow step ( which is step2 from the above mechanism).
Therefore, the balanced chemical equation for the overall reaction is:
(CH3)3AuPH3 ----> C2H6 + (CH3)AuPH3
Answer:
7923.6 g of (NH₄)₂SO₄ can be produced by this reaction
Explanation:
The reaction is:
2NH₃ (aq) + H₂SO₄(aq) → (NH₄)₂SO₄(aq)
In this reaction ratio is 1:1.
As the ammonia is in excess, the limiting reagent is the sulfuric acid.
So 1 mol of sulfuric can produce 1 mol of sulfate
Then, 60 moles of sulfuric must produce 60 moles of sulfate.
We convert the moles to mass:
60 mol . 132.06 g / 1mol = 7923.6 g
Answer:
Conservation of Energy and Mass
The law of conservation of mass states that in a chemical reaction mass is neither created nor destroyed. ... Similarly, the law of conservation of energy states that the amount of energy is neither created nor destroyed.
