Answer:

Because cold fusion is still an unresolved and controversial subject that generates strong opinions and passionate debate among scientists, I begin by stating up front that I am a mainstream plasma physicist researching fusion energy. I also read many of the papers published on cold fusion, however. I attended the last three International Conferences on Cold Fusion, and I myself ran two sets of cold fusion experiments, both with no clear evidence of excess power release. Overall, I consider myself to be a fairly neutral observer

How does the modern periodic table arrange elements?

Norma-Jean [14]

The elements are arranged in order of increasing atomic number. Vertical columns(called groups) contain elements with similar properties. Horizontal rows called periods elements with the same number of atomic orbitals(That's why Hydrogen and Helium are separated from the rest of the table).

Hope this helps:)

How many grams of Fe3O4 are required to react completely with 300 grams of H2?

vekshin1

Answer:

2023.04 g

Explanation:

Magnetite reacts with hydrogen to produce Iron metal and steam. Steam instead of water is produced as the reaction occurs at temperatures above the boiling point of water.

Fe₃O₄ + 4 H₂ → 3 Fe +4 H₂O

From the equation, 1 mole of Fe₃O₄ reacts with 4 moles of H₂.

69.76 grams of H₂ has the following number of moles.

Number of moles= mass/RAM

=69.76/2

=34.88 moles.

The reaction ratio of Fe₃O₄ to H₂ is 1:4

Thus number of moles of magnetite= (1×34.88)/4

=8.72 moles.

Mass= moles × molecular weight

=8.72 moles × (56×3+16×4)

=2023.04 grams

Ammonia is produced by the following reaction. 3H2(g) N2(g) Right arrow. 2NH3(g) When 7. 00 g of hydrogen react with 70. 0 g of

harkovskaia [24]

In the ammonia production process given by the reaction 3H₂(g) + N₂(g) → 2NH₃(g), when 7.00 g of hydrogen react with 70.0 g of nitrogen, hydrogen is considered the limiting reactant because 7.5 moles of hydrogen would be needed to consume the available nitrogen (option 1).

The reaction is the following:

3H₂(g) + N₂(g) → 2NH₃(g) (1)

To know why hydrogen is considered the limiting reactant, we need to calculate the number of moles of nitrogen and hydrogen with the following equation:

$n = \frac{m}{M}$

Where:

m: is the mass

M: is the molar mass

For hydrogen we have:

$n_{H_{2}} = \frac{m}{M} = \frac{7.00 g}{2.016 g/mol} = 3.47 \:moles$

And for nitrogen:

$n_{N_{2}} = \frac{m}{M} = \frac{70.0 g}{28.013 g/mol} = 2.50 \:moles$

We can see in reaction (1) that 3 moles of hydrogen react with 1 mol of nitrogen, so the number of hydrogen moles needed to react nitrogen is:

$n_{H_{2}} = \frac{3\:moles\:H_{2}}{1\:moles\:N_{2}}*n_{N_{2}} = \frac{3\:moles\:H_{2}}{1\:moles\:N_{2}}*2.50 \:moles = 7.50 \:moles$

Since we have 3.47 moles of hydrogen and we need 7.50 moles to react with all the mass of nitrogen, the limiting reactant is hydrogen.

We can find the number of ammonia moles produced with the limiting reactant (hydrogen) konwing that 3 moles of hydrogen produces 2 moles of ammonia, so:

$n_{NH_{3}} = \frac{2\:moles\:NH_{3}}{3\:moles\:H_{2}}*n_{H_{2}} = \frac{2\:moles\:NH_{3}}{3\:moles\:H_{2}}*3.47 \:moles = 2.31 \:moles$

Hence, hydrogen would produce 2.31 moles of ammonia.

Therefore, hydrogen is the limiting reactant because 7.5 moles of hydrogen would be needed to consume the available nitrogen (option 1).
