The reaction is properly written as
Mg₃N₂ (s) + 3 H₂O (l) --> 2 NH₃<span> (g) + 3 MgO (s)
Molar mass of Mg</span>₃N₂ = 100.95 g/mol
Molar mass of H₂O = 18 g/mol
Molar mass of MgO = 40.3 g/mol
Moles Mg₃N₂: 3.82/100.95 = 0.0378
Moles H₂O: 7.73/18 = 0.429
Theo H₂O required for available Mg₃N₂: 0.0378*3/1 = 0.1134 mol
Hence, the limiting reactant is Mg₃N₂.
Thus,
Theoretical Yield = 0.0378 mol Mg₃N₂ * 3 mol MgO/Mg₃N₂ * 40.3 g/mol
Theo Yield = 4.57 g
Percent Yield = Actual Yield/Theo Yield * 100
Percent Yield = 3.60 g/4.57 g * 100 =<em> 78.77%</em>
The answer is option C.
That is it is a heterogeneous mixture.
Heterogeneous mixture have the following properties:
1. Different components could be observed in the substance.
2. Different samples of the substance appeared to have different proportions of the components.
3.The components could be easily separated using filters and sorting.
I believe the answer is A. However, I would double check the formula.
Precipitation :)
Hope it helps
