In the Haber reaction, patented by German chemist Fritz Haber in 1908, dinitrogen gas combines with dihydrogen gas to produce gaseous ammonia. This reaction is now the first step taken to make most of the world's fertilizer. Suppose a chemical engineer studying a new catalyst for the Haber reaction finds that 348 liters per second of dinitrogen are consumed when the reaction is run at 205°C and 0.72 atm. Calculate the rate at which ammonia is being produced.

Answer:

The rate of production of ammonia is 217.08 grams per second.

Explanation:

$N_2+3H_2\rightarrow 2NH_3$

Volume of dinitrogen used in a second = 348 L

Temperature of the gas = T = 205°C = 205+273 K = 478 K

Pressure of the gas = P = 0.72 atm

Moles of dinitrogen = n

$n=\frac{PV}{RT}=\frac{0.72 atm\times 348 L}{0.0821 atm L/mol K\times 478 K}=6.385 mol$

According to reaction, 1 mole of dinitriogen gives 2 mole of ammonia.Then 6.385 moles of dinitrogen will give:

$\frac{2}{1}\times 6.385 mol=12.769 mol$

Mass of 12.769 moles of ammonia;

12.769 mol 17 g/mol = 217.08 g

217.08 grams of ammonia is produced per second.So, the rate of production of ammonia is 217.08 grams per second.

Choose the correct net ionic equation for the reaction (if a reaction occurs) between CaCl2 and AgNO3: Group of answer choices

Levart [38]

Answer:

2Ag⁺(aq) + 2Cl⁻(aq) -> 2AgCl(s)

Explanation:

Silver nitrate and calcium chloride will react in a double displacement reaction (which has to produce a precipitate, a gas, or water to have a reaction).

This reaction will produce a silver chloride precipitate and a solution of calcium nitrate.

The reaction will be 2AgNO3(aq) + CaCl2(aq) -> 2AgCl(s) + Ca(NO3)2(aq)

To write a net ionic equation:

1. Write the balanced molecular equation.

2AgNO3 + CaCl2 -> 2AgCl(ppt) + Ca(NO3)2

2. Write the balanced complete ionic equation.

To write the complete ionic equation:

- Start with a balanced molecular equation.

2AgNO3(aq) + CaCl2(aq) -> 2AgCl(s) + Ca(NO3)2(aq)

- Break all soluble strong electrolytes (compounds with (aq) beside them) into their ions

indicate the correct formula and charge of each ion

indicate the correct number of each ion

write (aq) after each ion

- Bring down all compounds with (s), (l), or (g) unchanged.

2Ag⁺(aq) + 2NO³⁻(aq) + Ca²⁺(aq) + 2Cl⁻(aq) -> 2AgCl(s) + Ca²⁺(aq) + 2NO³⁻(aq)

3. Cross out the spectator ions that are present. Spectator ions are ions that are present in the reaction mixture but do not participate in it. You can recognize spectator ions by looking for ions that are present on both sides of the equation.

4. Write the "leftovers" as the net ionic equation.

2Ag⁺(aq) + 2Cl⁻(aq) -> 2AgCl(s)
