The Aufbau principle states that, hypothetically, electrons orbiting one or more atoms fill the lowest available energy levels before filling higher levels (e.g., 1s before 2s). In this way, the electrons of an atom, molecule, or ion harmonize into the most stable electron configuration possible.
Answer:
44 g oxygen are needed.
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of oxygen needed = ?
Mass of ammonia = 18.2 g
Solution:
Chemical equation:
4NH₃ + 5O₂ → 4NO + 6H₂O
Now we will calculate the number of moles of ammonia:
Number of moles = mass/molar mass
Number of moles = 18.2 g/ 17 g/mol
Number of moles = 1.1 mol
Now we will compare the moles of ammonia with oxygen from balance chemical equation.
NH₃ : O₂
4 : 5
1.1 : 5/4×1.1 = 1.375 mol
Mass of oxygen needed:
Mass = number of moles × molar mass
Mass = 1.375 mol × 32 g/mol
Mass = 44 g
Appropriate units for the speed of a chemical reaction, the reaction rate, are M/s
