The following is the introduction to a special e-publication called Determining the Age of the Earth (click the link to see a table of contents). Published earlier this year, the collection draws articles from the archives of Scientific American. In the collection, this introduction appears with the title, “Stumbling Toward an Understanding of Geologic Timescales.”

1.86 g H2 is allowed to react with 9.75 g N2 , producing 2.87g NH3.
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

                     (a)  Theoretical Yield  =  10.50 g

                      (b)   %age yield  = 27.33 %

Explanation:

Answer-Part-(a)

                 The balance chemical equation for the synthesis of Ammonia is as follow;

                                          N₂ + 3 H₂ → 2 NH₃

Step 1: Calculating moles of N₂ as;

                   Moles = Mass / M/Mass

                   Moles = 9.75 g / 28.01 g/mol

                   Moles = 0.348 moles of N₂

Step 2: Calculating moles of H₂ as;

                   Moles = Mass / M/Mass

                   Moles = 1.86 g / 2.01 g/mol

                   Moles = 0.925 moles

Step 3: Finding Limiting reagent as;

According to equation,

                1 mole of N₂ reacts with  =  3 moles of H₂

So,

             0.348 moles of N₂ will react with  =  X moles of H₂

Solving for X,

                     X = 3 mol × 0.348 mol / 1 mol

                     X = 1.044 mol of H₂

It shows that to consume 0.348 moles of N₂ completely we require 1.044 mol of Hydrogen while, as given in statement we are only provided with 0.925 moles of H₂ hence, hydrogen  is limiting reagent. Therefore, H₂ will control the final yield.

Step 4: Calculating moles of Ammonia as,

According to equation,

                3 mole of H₂ produces  =  2 moles of NH₃

So,

             0.925 moles of H₂ will produce  =  X moles of NH₃

Solving for X,

                     X = 2 mol × 0.925 mol / 3 mol

                     X = 0.616 mol of NH₃

Step 5: Calculating theoretical yield of Ammonia as,

                     Theoretical Yield  =  Moles × M.Mass

                     Theoretical Yield  =  0.616 mol  × 17.03 g/mol

                     Theoretical Yield  =  10.50 g

Answer-Part-(b)

                    %age yield  = Actual Yield / Theoretical Yield × 100

                    %age yield  = 2.87 g / 10.50 g × 100

                    %age yield  = 27.33 %

A particle with a charge of 9.40 nC is in a uniform electric field directed to the left. Another force, in addition to the elect
juin [17]

Answer:

a. Work done by the electric force = -2.85 * ×10⁻⁵ J

b. The potential of the starting point with respect to the end point = -3.03 * 10³ V

c. The magnitude of the electric field is 33.7kV/m

Explanation:

Given.

Charge = Q = 9.40 nC

Distance = d = 9.00 cm = 0.09m

Amount of work = 7.10×10⁻⁵ J

Kinetic energy = K = 4.25×10⁻⁵ J

a. What work was done by the electric force?

This is calculated by; change in Kinetic Energy i.e. ∆KE

∆KE = ∆K2 - ∆Kæ

Where K2 = 4.25×10⁻⁵ J

The body is released at rest, so the initial velocity is 0.

So, K1 = 0

Also, total work done = W1 + W2

Where W2 = 7.10×10⁻⁵J

So, W1 + W2 = W = K2

W1 + 7.10×10⁻⁵ = 4.25×10⁻⁵

W1 = 4.25×10⁻⁵ - 7.10×10⁻⁵

W = -2.85 * ×10⁻⁵ J

Work done by the electric force = -2.85 * ×10⁻⁵ J

b. What is the potential of the starting point with respect to the end point?

The change in potential energy is given as

W = ∆U

W = Q|V2 - V1| where V1 = 0 because the body starts from rest

So, W = QV2

Make V the Subject of the formula

V2 = W/Q

V2 = -2.85 * ×10⁻⁵ J / 9.40 nC

V2 = -2.85 * ×10⁻⁵ J / 9.40 * 10^-9C

V2 = −3031.9148936170212765957V

V2 = -3.03 * 10³ V

The potential of the starting point with respect to the end point = -3.03 * 10³ V

c. What is the magnitude of the electric field?

The magnitude of the electric field is calculated as follows;

W = -Fd = -QEd

And E = V/d

E = -3.03 * 10³ V / 0.09 m

E = −33687.943262411347517730 V/m

E = -33.7kV/m

The magnitude of the electric field is 33.7kV/m
