<span>Pre-1982 definition of STP: 37 g/mol Post-1982 definition of STP: 38 g/mol This problem is somewhat ambiguous because the definition of STP changed in 1982. Prior to 1982, the definition was 273.15 K at a pressure of 1 atmosphere (101325 Pascals). Since 1982, the definition is 273.15 K at a pressure of exactly 100000 Pascals). Because of those 2 different definitions, the volume of 1 mole of gas is either 22.414 Liters (pre 1982 definition), or 22.71098 liters (post 1982 definition). And finally, there's entirely too many text books out there that still use the 35 year obsolete definition. So let's solve this problem using both definitions and you need to pick the correct answer for the text book you're using. First, determine how many moles of gas you have. Just simply divide the volume you have by the molar volume. Pre-1982: 2.1 / 22.414 = 0.093691443 moles Post-1982: 2.1 / 22.71098 = 0.092466287 moles Now determine the molar mass. Simply divide the mass by the moles. So Pre-1982: 3.5 g / 0.093691443 moles = 37.35666667 g/mol Post-1982: 3.5 g / 0.092466287 moles = 37.85163333 g/mol Finally, round to 2 significant figures. So Pre-1982: 37 g/mol Post-1982: 38 g/mol</span>

Ammonia, nh3, for fertilizer is made by causing hydrogen and nitrogen to react at high temperature and pressure. How many moles
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

0.30molNH_3

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, since the reaction for the formation of ammonia is:

3H_2+N_2\rightarrow 2NH_3

We can evidence the 1:2 mole ratio of nitrogen gas to ammonia; therefore, the appropriate stoichiometric setup for the calculation of the moles of the latter turns out to be:

0.15molN_2*\frac{2molNH_3}{1molN_2}

And the result is:

0.30molNH_3

Best regards!

What is the pH of a 0.00001 M solution of HCI?
ale4655 [162]

Answer:

0.00001= 1 x 10^-5. Since HCl is an acid, 1 x10^-5 is the H+ concentration. Write only the number of the exponent. Therefore, pH = 5.
