If 100.0g of nitrogen is reacted with 100.0g of hydrogen, what is the excess reactant? What is the limiting reactant? Show your

work.
If someone could just help me understand how to do this, it would be much appreciated. (:

N₂ : limiting reactant

H₂ : excess reactant

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

mass of N₂ = 100 g

mass of H₂ = 100 g

Required

Limiting reactant

Excess reactant

Solution

Reaction

<em>N₂+3H₂⇒2NH₃</em>

mol N₂(MW=28 g/mol) :

\tt mol=\dfrac{mass}{MW}=\dfrac{100}{28}=3.571

mol H₂(MW= 2 g/mol) :

\tt mol=\dfrac{100}{2}=50

A method that can be used to find limiting reactants is to divide the number of moles of known substances by their respective coefficients, and small or exhausted reactans become a limiting reactants

From the equation, mol ratio N₂ : H₂ = 1 : 3, so :

\tt \dfrac{3.571}{1}\div \dfrac{50}{3}=3.571\div 16.6

N₂ becomes a limiting reactant (smaller ratio) and H₂ is the excess reactant

What is the pH of a substance that has a hydrogen ion concentration of<br> 8.8x10^(-5) M? *
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

The pH of the substance is 4,06.

Explanation:

The pH indicates the acidity or basicity of a substance. PH values between 0 and less than 7 indicate acidic solutions, 7 neutral and greater than 7 to 14 basic. It is calculated as:

pH = -log (H +)

pH= -log (8.8x10^-5)

<em>pH=4,06</em>

g When 2.50 g of methane (CH4) burns in oxygen, 125 kJ of heat is produced. What is the enthalpy of combustion (in kJ) per mole
Anna [14]

Answer:

-800 kJ/mol

Explanation:

To solve the problem, we have to express the enthalpy of combustion (ΔHc) in kJ per mole (kJ/mol).

First, we have to calculate the moles of methane (CH₄) there are in 2.50 g of substance. For this, we divide the mass into the molecular weight Mw) of CH₄:

Mw(CH₄) = 12 g/mol C + (1 g/mol H x 4) = 16 g/mol

moles CH₄ = mass CH₄/Mw(CH₄)= 2.50 g/(16 g/mol) = 0.15625 mol CH₄

Now, we divide the heat released into the moles of CH₄ to obtain the enthalpy per mole of CH₄:

ΔHc = heat/mol CH₄ = 125 kJ/(0.15625 mol) = 800 kJ/mol

Therefore, the enthalpy of combustion of methane is -800 kJ/mol (the minus sign indicated that the heat is released).
