The theoretical proportion is given by the balanced chemical equation:
2 mol NBr / 3 mol Na OH
Then x mol NaOH / 40 mol NBr3 = 3mol NaOH/2 mol NBr3
Solve for x, x = 40 * 3/2 = 60 mol NaOH.
Given that there are 48 mol NaOH (less than 60) this is the limitant reactant and the other is the excess reactant.
Answer: NBr3..
Basically this is used in calculating the nuclear binding energy by converting the mass defect (calculated first) to energy and if we recall, Einstein's equation E=mc2 is the perfection equation to use because E=mc2 in which E represents units of energy, m represents units of mass, and c 2 is the speed of light squared.
A word equation is a written description of a chemical reaction.
All word equations start with the reactants.
Then, what comes next is the word "react to form."
Finally, the products of the equation are mentioned.
An example is,
Zinc and Hypochondriac acid react to form hydrogen gas and zinc chloride.
In every reaction, mass cannot be destroyed nor created as defined by the law of conservation of mass. Energy also cannot be destroyed when a chemical reaction takes place
If an atom has 2 protons, then it must also have 2 electrons for there to be no charge. An extra electron will cause for you to have a negative charge, and if you have more protons than electrons, then you will have a positive charge. :)
