One of the intermediates in the synthesis of glycine from ammonia, carbon dioxide, and methane is aminoacetonitrile, C2H4N2. The

balanced chemical equation is as follows:
3CH4 (g) + 5CO2 (g) + 8NH3 (g) → 4C2H4N2 (g) + 10H2O (g)
How much C2H4N2 could be expected from the reaction of 13.5 grams of CO2, 2.21 grams of NH3, and 1.65 grams of CH4?

Answer:

Mass of C₂H₄N₂ produced = 3.64 g

Explanation:

The balanced chemical equation for the reaction is given below:

3CH₄ (g) + 5CO₂ (g) + 8NH₃ (g) → 4C₂H₄N₂ (g) + 10H₂O (g)

From the equation, 3 moles of CH₄ reacts with 5 moles of CO₂ and 8 moles of NH₃ to produce 4 moles of C₂H₄N₂ and 10 moles of H₂O

Molar masses of the compounds are given below below:

CH₄ = 16 g/mol; CO₂ = 44 g/mol; NH3 = 17 g/mol; C₂H₄N₂ = 56 g/mol; H₂O g/mol

Comparing the mole ratios of the reacting masses;

CH₄ = 1.65/16 = 0.103

CO₂ = 13.5/44 = 0.307

NH₃ = 2.21/17 = 0.130

converting to whole number ratios by dividing with the smallest ratio

CH₄ = 0.103/0.103 = 1

CO₂ = 0.307/0.103 = 3

NH₃ = 0.130/0.103 = 1.3

Multiplying through with 5

CH₄ = 1 × 5 = 5

CO₂ = 3 × 5 = 15

NH₃ = 1.3 × 5 = 6.5

Therefore, the limiting reactant is NH₃

8 × 17 g (136 g) of NH₃ reacts to produce 4 × 56 g (224 g) of C₂H₄N₂

Therefore, 2.21 g of NH₃ will produce (2.21 × 224)/136 g of C₂H₄N₂ = 3.64 g of C₂H₄N₂

Mass of C₂H₄N₂ produced = 3.64 g

Why can't methanol, CH3OH, be used as a solvent for sodium amide, NaNH2? Sodium amide is nonpolar and methanol is polar. Sodium
Elodia [21]

Answer: sodium amide undergoes an acid -base reaction

Explanation:

sodium amide is a ionic compound and basically exists as sodium cation and amide anion. Amide anion is highly basic in nature and hence as soon as  there is amide anion generated in the solution , Due to its very pronounced acidity it very quickly abstracts the slightly acidic proton available on methanol.

This leads to formation of ammonia and sodium methoxide.

Hence sodium amide reacts with methanol and abstracts its only acidic proton and form ammonia and sodium Methoxide.

Hence the 3rd statement is a corrects statement.

So we cannot use methanol for sodium amide because sodium amide itself would react with methanol and the inherent molecular natur of sodium amide would then change.

The 1st and 2nd statements both are incorrect because both the compounds methanol as well as sodium amide have dipole moments and hence are polar molecules.

The 4th statement is also incorrect as both the molecules have dipole moment and hence there would be ion-dipole forces operating between them.

The following reaction occurs:

NaNH₂+CH₃OH→NH₃+CH₃ONa

A 0.245-L flask contains 0.467 mol co2 at 159 °c. Calculate the pressure using the ideal gas law.
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

Pressure, P = 67.57 atm

Explanation:

<u>Given the following data;</u>

  • Volume = 0.245 L
  • Number of moles = 0.467 moles
  • Temperature = 159°C
  • Ideal gas constant, R = 0.08206 L·atm/mol·K

<u>Conversion:</u>

We would convert the value of the temperature in Celsius to Kelvin.

T = 273 + °C

T = 273 + 159

T = 432 Kelvin

To find the pressure of the gas, we would use the ideal gas law;

PV = nRT

Where;

  • P is the pressure.
  • V is the volume.
  • n is the number of moles of substance.
  • R is the ideal gas constant.
  • T is the temperature.

Making P the subject of formula, we have;

P = \frac {nRT}{V}

Substituting into the formula, we have;

P = \frac {0.467*0.08206*432}{0.245}

P = \frac {16.5551}{0.245}

<em>Pressure, P = 67.57 atm</em>
