Answer:

$m=243.72g$

Explanation:

Hello,

For the given chemical reaction:

$CaO(s) + 3 C(s) \rightarrow CaC_2(s) + CO(g)$

Whose heat of reaction is 464.8 kJ/mol which means that energy is absorbed due to the chemical reaction, we can compute the moles of calcium carbide via the following relationship:

$n=\frac{1770kJ}{464.8 kJ/mol}\\ \\n=3.81mol$

Then, since the molar mass of calcium carbide is 64 g/mol, the yielded mass turns out:

$m=3.81mol*\frac{64g}{1mol}\\ \\m=243.72g$

Best regards.

23.495 g sample of aqueous waste leaving a fertilizer manufacturer contains ammonia. The sample is diluted with 72.311 g of wate

Otrada [13]

Answer:

1.86% NH₃

Explanation:

The reaction that takes place is:

HCl(aq) + NH₃(aq) → NH₄Cl(aq)

We calculate the moles of HCl that reacted, using the volume used and the concentration:

32.27 mL ⇒ 32.27/1000 = 0.03227 L

0.1080 M * 0.03227 L = 3.4852x10⁻³ mol HCl

The moles of HCl are equal to the moles of NH₃, so now we calculate the mass of NH₃ that was titrated, using its molecular weight:

3.4852x10⁻³ mol NH₃ * 17 g/mol = 0.0592 g NH₃

The weight percent NH₃ in the aliquot (and thus in the diluted sample) is:

0.0592 / 12.949 * 100% = 0.4575%

Now we calculate the total mass of NH₃ in the diluted sample:

Diluted sample total mass = Aqueous waste Mass + Water mass = 23.495 + 72.311 = 95.806 g

0.4575% * 95.806 g = 0.4383 g NH₃

Finally we calculate the weight percent NH₃ in the original sample of aqueous waste:

0.4383 g NH₃ / 23.495 g * 100% = 1.86% NH₃

Which characteristic do valence electrons indicate about reactions between atoms?

Setler [38]

Bond number

The characteristic of reactions that depends on valence electrons is the bond type.

In chemistry, a chemical bond could be;

Ionic

Covalent

The type of bond formed depends on the number of valence electrons present. When there are few valence electrons on an atom, it mostly forms ionic bonds.

When there are more electrons on an atoms, it mostly forms covalent bonds and the electrons between the atoms are shared.
