Answer:

15.64 moles

81.8% (3 s.f.)

Explanation:

Let's start by writing a balanced equation.

N₂ +H₂ → NH₃

To balance the equation, ensure that the number of atoms of each element is the same on both side of the arrow. On the left, we have 2 N atoms and only 1 N on the right. Thus, write '2' in front of NH₃ to balance the N.

N₂ +H₂ → 2NH₃

Now, balance the number of H atoms. Currently, there are 2 Hs on the left and 6 Hs on the right. To balance the equation, write a 3 in front of H₂.

N₂ +3H₂ → 2NH₃

The equation is now balanced.

\boxed{N₂ +3H₂ → 2NH₃}

Given that hydrogen is in excess, the number of moles of NH₃ is dependent on the number of moles of N₂, which is the limiting reactant.

The mole ratio of N₂ to NH₃ produced is 1: 2.

Thus with 7.82 mol of N₂,

number of moles of NH₃

= 2(7.82)

= 15.64 moles

This is the theoretical yield since the calculations were based from the chemical equation.

However, in reality, the percentage yield may not be 100% as some products are lost in the process.

\boxed{percentage \: yield =  \frac{actual \: yield}{theoretical \: yield}  \times 100\%}

∴ Percentage yield of NH₃

=  \frac{12.8}{15.64}  \times 100\%

= 81.8% (3 s.f.)

An empty beaker weighs 25.91 g. When completely filled with water, the beaker and its contents have a total mass of 333.85 g. Wh
Finger [1]

Answer:

The beaker holds 307.94  mL

Explanation:

As we know that the volume that beaker hold is the volume of water that occupied by it.

For this first we have to find mass of the water in the beaker

This can be calculated by the subtraction of beaker's weight from the weight of beaker and water.

     weight of water (m) = total weight - weight of beaker

Empty weight of beaker = 25.91 g

Weight of beaker with water = 333.85 g

Weight of water = 333.85 - 25.91 = 307.94 g

Density of water = 1 g/mL

We have

      Mass = Volume x density

      307.94  = Volume x 1

      Volume = 307.94  mL

The beaker holds 307.94  mL

Need some help, please. Explain why anions are always larger than the atoms from which they are derived, while cations are alway
ANTONII [103]

The question requires us to explain the differences in radii of neutral atoms, cations and anions.

To answer this question, we need to keep in mind that a neutral atom presents the same number of protons (positive particles) and electrons (negative particles). Another important information is that the protons are located in the nucleus of the atom, while the electrons are around the nucleus. Also, there is an electrostatic force between protons and electrons, which means that they the protons tend to attract the electrons to the nucleus.

While a neutral atom presents the same number of protons and electrons, a cation is an ion with positive charge, which means it has lost one or more electrons. In a cation, the balance between protons and electrons doesn't exist anymore: now, there is more positive than negative charge (more protons than electrons), and the overall attractive force that the protons have for the electrons is increased. As a result, the electrons stay closer to the nucleus and the radius of a cation is smaller than the neutral atom from which it was derived.

On the other side, anions present negative charge, which means they have received electrons. Similarly to cations, the balance between protons and electrons doesn't exist anymore, but in this case, there are more electrons than protons. In an anion, the overall attractive force that the protons have for the electrons is decreased. As a result, the electrons are "more free" to move and, as they are not so attracted to the nucleus, they tend to stay farther from the positive nucleus compared to the neutral atom - because of this, the radius of an anion is larger than the neutral atom from which it was derived.
