The bomb that destroyed tje Murrah Federal Office Building in Oklahoma City in April 1995 was constructed from ordinary material

s: fertilizer (ammonium nitrate) and fiel oil (a mixture of long-chain hydrocarbons, similar to decane, C10H22). Calculate the total enthalpy (delta H, in kJ) when 11.40 grams of ammonium nitrate (NH4NO3, 80.04 g/mol) reacts according to the following reaction.
3NH4 NO3(s) + C10H22 (l) + 14O2 (g) → 3N2(g) 17 H2O (g) + 10CO2 (g)

Answer:

ΔH⁰(11.4g NH₄NO₃) = -30.59Kj (4 sig. figs. ~mass of  NH₄NO₃(s) given) (exothermic)

Explanation:

           3NH₄NO₃(s) + C₁₀H₂₂(l) + 14O₂(g) => 3N₂(g)  +  17H₂O(g)   +  10CO₂(g)

ΔH⁰(f):  3(-365.6)Kj     1(-301)Kj    14(0)Kj       3(0)Kj    17(-241.8)Kj    10(-393.5)Kj

            = -1096.8Kj     = -301Kj     = 0Kj         = 0Kj      = -4110.6Kj    = -3930.5Kj

ΔHₙ°(rxn) = ∑ (ΔH˚(f)products) - ∑(ΔH˚(f)reactants)

= [3(0)Kj + 17(-241.8)Kj + (-393.5)Kj] - [(-(1096.8)Kj + (-301)Kj + (0)Kj]

= [-(8041.1) - (-1397.8)]Kj

= -6643.3Kj (for 3 moles NH₄NO₃ used in above equation)  

∴ Standard Heat of Rxn = -6643.3Kj/3moles = -214.8Kj/mole NH₄NO₃(s)

ΔH°(rxn for 14.11g  NH₄NO₃(s)) = (11.4g/80.04g·mol⁻¹)(-214.8Kj/mol) = 30.5937Kj ≅ 30.59Kj (4 sig. figs. ~mass of  NH₄NO₃(s) given)

Which element would lose electrons during ionic bonding choose all that apply
yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

All of them!

Explanation:

Since Mg, Li, Ca, and Cs are all in groups 1 and 2 of the periodic table, they are alkali/alkaline earth metals and will all lose electrons during ionic bonding.

Ammonia is produced from the reaction of nitrogen and hydrogen according to the following balanced equation:
nignag [31]

Answer:  1) Maximum mass of ammonia  198.57g  

2) The element that would be completely consumed is the N2

3) Mass that would keep unremained, is the one of  the excess Reactant, that means the H2 with 3,44g

Explanation:

  • In order to calculate the Mass of ammonia , we first check the Equation is actually Balance:

N2(g) + 3H2(g) ⟶2NH3(g)

Both equal amount of atoms side to side.

  • Now we verify which reagent is the limiting one by comparing the amount of product formed with each reactant, and the one with the lowest number is the limiting reactant. ( Keep in mind that we use the  molecular weight of 28.01 g/mol N2; 2.02 g/mol H2; 17.03g/mol NH3)

Moles of ammonia produced with 163.3g N2(g) ⟶ 163.3g N2(g) x (1mol N2(g)/ 28.01 g N2(g) )x (2 mol NH3(g) /1 mol N2(g)) = 11.66 mol NH3

Moles of ammonia produced with 38.77 g H2⟶  38.77 g H2 x ( 1mol H2/ 2.02 g H2 ) x (2 mol NH3 /3 mol H2 ) = 12.79 mol NH3

  • As we can see the amount of NH3 formed with the N2 is the lowest one , therefore the limiting reactant is the N2 that means, N2 is the element  that would be completey consumed, and the maximum mass of ammonia will be produced from it.
  • We proceed calculating the maximum mass of NH3 from the 163.3g of N2.

11.66  mol NH3 x (17.03 g NH3 /1mol NH3) = 198.57 g NH3

  • In order to estimate the mass of excess reagent, we start by calculating how much H2 reacts with the giving N2:

163.3g N2 x (1mol N2/28.01 g N2) x ( 3 mol H2 / 1 mol N2)x (2.02 g H2/ 1 mol H2) = 35.33 g H2

That means that only 35.33 g H2 will react with 163.3g N2 however we were giving 38.77g of  H2, thus, 38.77g - 35.33 g = 3.44g H2 is left
