The balanced chemical reaction is:
<span>Ca + Cl2 = CaCl2
</span>
We are given the amount of calcium metal to be used for this reaction. This will be the starting point for the calculations.
56 g Ca ( 1 mol Ca / 40.08 g Ca) (1 mol Cl2 / 1 mol Ca) ( 22.414 L Cl2 / 1 mol Cl2 ) = 31.32 L Cl2 gas produced from the reaction
Answer:
65.2L
Explanation:
Using the general gas equation;
PV = nRT
Where;
P = pressure (atm)
V = volume (Litres)
n = number of moles (mol)
R = gas law constant (0.0821 Latm/molK)
T = temperature (Kelvin)
According to the information provided in this question,
P = 1.631 atm
V = ?
n = 4.3 moles
T = 28°C = 28 + 273 = 301K
Using PV = nRT
V = nRT/P
V = 4.3 × 0.0821 × 301 ÷ 1.631
V = 106.26 ÷ 1.631
V = 65.15
Volume of the gas = 65.2L
Answer:
Theoretical yield of the reaction = 34 g
Excess reactant is hydrogen
Limiting reactant is nitrogen
Explanation:
Given there is 100 g of nitrogen and 100 g of hydrogen
Number of moles of nitrogen = 100 ÷ 28 = 3·57
Number of moles of hydrogen = 100 ÷ 2 = 50
Reaction between nitrogen and hydrogen yields ammonia according to the following chemical equation
N2 + 3H2 → 2NH3
From the above chemical equation for every mole of nitrogen that reacts, 3 moles of hydrogen will be required and 2 moles of ammonia will be formed
Now we have 3·57 moles of nitrogen and therefore we require 3 × 3·57 moles of hydrogen
⇒ We require 10·71 moles of hydrogen
But we have 50 moles of hydrogen
∴ Limiting reactant is nitrogen and excess reactant is hydrogen
From the balanced chemical equation the yield will be 2 × 3·57 moles of ammonia
Molecular weight of ammonia = 17 g
∴ Theoretical yield of the reaction = 2 × 3·57 × 17 = 121·38 g
Explanation:
In a galvanic cell, the cathode is positively charged and the anode is negatively charged.
The cathode attracts electron while the anode donates or releases electrons.
Electrons received - Cathode
Electrons donated - Anode
Answer:moles = no. of molecules / Avogadro's number
= 2.26 x 10^33 / 6.022 x 10^23
= 3752906011
Round to significant figures which is 3 = 3.75 x 10^9 mol
Explanation:
The formula for finding how many moles of a substance when given the amount of molecules is: moles = number of molecules / Avogadro's number
