Answer:

1 atm

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced equation

NH₄OH(aq) ⇒ H₂O(l) + NH₃(g)

Step 2: Calculate the moles corresponding to 8 g of NH₄OH

The molar mass of NH₄OH is 35.04 g/mol.

8 g × 1 mol/35.04 g = 0.2 mol

Step 3: Calculate the moles of NH₃ formed from 0.2 moles of NH₄OH

The molar ratio of NH₄OH to NH₃ is 1:1. The moles of NH₃ formed are 1/1 × 0.2 mol = 0.2 mol

Step 4: Calculate the pressure of 0.2 moles of NH₃ in a container of 5.00 L at 25 °C (298 K)

We will use the ideal gas equation.

P × V = n × R × T

P = n × R × T / V

P = 0.2 mol × 0.0821 atm.L/mol.K × 298 K / 5.00 L

P = 1 atm

A gas contains 75.0 wt% methane, 10.0% ethane, 5.0% ethylene, and the balance water. (a) Calculate the molar composition of this

NeTakaya

Answer:

a) molar composition of this gas on both a wet and a dry basis are

5.76 moles and 5.20 moles respectively.

Ratio of moles of water to the moles of dry gas =0.108 moles

b) Total air required = 68.51 kmoles/h

So, if combustion is 75% complete; then it is termed as incomplete combustion which require the same amount the same amount of air but varying product will be produced.

Explanation:

Let assume we have 100 g of mixture of gas:

Given that :

Mass of methane =75 g

Mass of ethane = 10 g

Mass of ethylene = 5 g

∴ Mass of the balanced water: 100 g - (75 g + 10 g + 5 g)

Their molar composition can be calculated as follows:

Molar mass of methane $CH_4}= 16 g/mol$

Molar mass of ethane $C_2H_6= 30 g/mol$

Molar mass of ethylene $C_2H_4 = 28 g/mol$

Molar mass of water $H_2O=18g/mol$

number of moles = $\frac{mass}{molar mass}$

Their molar composition can be calculated as follows:

$n_{CH_4}= \frac{75}{16}$

$n_{CH_4}=$ 4.69 moles

$n_{C_2H_6} = \frac{10}{30}$

$n_{C_2H_6} =$ 0.33 moles

$n_{C_2H_4} = \frac{5}{28}$

$n_{C_2H_4} =$ 0.18 moles

$n_{H_2O}= \frac{10}{18}$

$n_{H_2O}=$ 0.56 moles

Total moles of gases for wet basis = (4.69 + 0.33 + 0.18 + 0.56) moles

= 5.76 moles

Total moles of gas for dry basis = (5.76 - 0.56)moles

= 5.20 moles

Ratio of moles of water to the moles of dry gas = $\frac{n_{H_2O}}{n_{drygas}}$

= $\frac{0.56}{5.2}$

= 0.108 moles

b) If 100 kg/h of this fuel is burned with 30% excess air(combustion); then we have the following equations:

$CH_4 + 2O_2_{(g)} ------> CO_2_{(g)} +2H_2O$

4.69 2× 4.69

moles moles

$C_2H_6+ \frac{7}{2}O_2_{(g)} ------> 2CO_2_{(g)} + 3H_2O$

0.33 3.5 × 0.33

moles moles

$C_2H_4+3O_2_{(g)} ----->2CO_2+2H_2O$

0.18 3× 0.18

moles moles

Mass flow rate = 100 kg/h

Their Molar Flow rate is as follows;

$CH_4 = 4.69 k moles/h\\C_2H_6 = 0.33 k moles/h\\C_2H_4=0.18kmoles/h$

Total moles of $O_2$ required = (2 × 4.69) + (3.5 × 0.33) + (3 × 0.18) k moles

= 11.075 k moles.

In 1 mole air = 0.21 moles $O_2$

Thus, moles of air required = $\frac{1}{0.21}*11.075$

= 52.7 k mole

30% excess air = 0.3 × 52.7 k moles

= 15.81 k moles

Total air required = (52.7 + 15.81 ) k moles/h

= 68.51 k moles/h

So, if combustion is 75% complete; then it is termed as incomplete combustion which require the same amount the same amount of air but varying product will be produced.

Why don't solids change shape?

borishaifa [10]

Answer: B) the forces in the solid hold the atoms tightly in place

Explanation:This is because there is no room for the atoms to move around much and because they are very close together which makes the phase a solid.

When heating a sample to extreme heat over a flame, you will often use a crucible. Before starting the heating, you should locat

Ghella [55]

Answer:

The equipments you should have ready to start the crucible experiment includes: safety goggles, crucible with lid, crucible tong, ring support with clay triangle, Bunsen burner and heat resistant tile.

Explanation:

Crucible is an equipment in the laboratory which is suitable for heating a sample to extreme heat over a flame, Modern laboratory crucible are made up of graphite- based composite materials for achievement of higher performance. Because extreme heat is involved, you should locate the correct labware for the experiment, including the equipment to safely handle and support the crucible. These equipments includes:

--> Safety goggles: Because you will work with chemical it is advisable to use a safety goggles which protects the eyes from dangerous floating chemical aerosol.

--> crucible with lid: This is the main apparatus with the lid (cover) which is used to cover the crucible to prevent spilling of the boiling chemical.

--> Crucible tong: These are scissors like tools used to grasp hot crucible.

--> Ring support with clay triangle: the clay triangle is used to hold crucible when they are being heated. They usually sit on a ring stand.

--> Bunsen burner: Produces a single open gas flame which can be used for heating.

With the safety equipments listed above, you can carry out experiment using the crucible. These equipments helps minimise laboratory hazard that may occur should Incase it's not available.
