What volume of nitrogen gas at STP would react with 37.2 g of magnesium to produce magnesium nitride

Answer:

11.58 L of N₂

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the number of mole in 37.2 g of magnesium. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass of Mg = 37.2 g

Molar mass of Mg = 24 g/mol

Mole of Mg =?

Mole = mass /Molar mass

Mole of Mg = 37.2 / 24

Mole of Mg = 1.55 moles

Next, we shall write the balanced equation for the reaction. This is illustrated below:

3Mg + N₂ —> Mg₃N₂

From the balanced equation above,

3 moles of Mg reacted with 1 mole of N₂.

Therefore, 1.55 moles of Mg will react with = (1.55 × 1)/3 = 0.517 mole of N₂

Thus, 0.517 mole of N₂ is need for the reaction.

Finally, we shall determine the volume of N₂ needed for the reaction as follow:

Recall:

1 mole of a gas occupies 22.4 L at STP.

1 mole of N₂ occupied 22.4 L at STP.

Therefore, 0.517 mole of N₂ will occupy = 0.517 × 22.4 = 11.58 L at STP

Thus, 11.58 L of N₂ is needed for the reaction.

Which of the following must be true about a reaction if it is only spontaneous at high temperatures?
Anastaziya [24]

1) Answer is: It is endothermic, with both positive enthalpy and entropy changes.

Endothermic reactions (ΔH>0) that increase the entropy of the system (ΔS>0) are spontaneous at high temperatures.

The change in Gibbs free energy (ΔG), at constant temperature and pressure, is: ΔG=ΔH−TΔS.

ΔH is the change in enthalpy.

ΔS is change in entropy.

T is temperature of the system.

When ΔG is negative, a reaction (occurs without the addition of external energy) will be spontaneous (exergonic).

2) Answer is: It is endothermic and heat is added to the system.

There are two types of reaction:

1) endothermic reaction (chemical reaction that absorbs more energy than it releases, ΔH>0).

2) exothermic reaction (chemical reaction that releases more energy than it absorbs).

For example, the breakdown of ozone is an endothermic process. Ozone has lower energy than molecular oxygen (O₂) and oxygen atom, so ozone need energy to break bond between oxygen atoms.

3) Answer is: For every two AB produced, the reaction requires three A.

Balanced chemical reaction: 3A + B → 2AB.

From balanced chemical reaction: n(A) : n(AB) = 3 : 2.

n(A) = 3 · n(AB) ÷ 2.

A and B are reactants and AB is product of balanced chemical reaction.

For every two AB produced, the reaction requires one B.

4) Answer is:

the amount of required activation energy = potential energy of the B - potential energy of the reactants A.

the enthalpy change of the reaction = potential energy of the products C - potential energy of the reactants A.

For all chemical reaction some energy is required and that energy is called activation energy (energy that needs to be absorbed for a chemical reaction to start).

This is endothermic reaction.

Which gas law (choices are Charles' Law, Gay-Lussac's Law, or Boyle's Law) explains each scenario:________.
posledela

Answer:

A.  Boyle's Law

B.  Charles' Law

C. Gay-Lussac's Law

Explanation:

An air bag inflates due to the decomposition of sodium azide or NaN₃ to completely fill the bag with nitrogen gas which is an example of Boyle's law, which states that the pressure of a given mass of gas is inversely proportional to its volume, hence due to the estricted volume of the airbag, the pressure of the nitrogen gas in the bag increses protecting the occupants of a cr from injuries in a crash

Helium balloon decrease in sice in a freezer is an example of Charlles law which states that the volume of a given mass of gas is nverslely proportionl to its temperature at constant pressure

A can of spray paint will explode if tossed into a fire is an example of Gay-Lussac's Law which states that the pressure of a given mass of gas is directly proportional to its temperature hence the increased pressure causes the can ti explode
