<u>Answer:</u> S is getting oxidized, N is getting reduced and O and H undergo no oxidation or reduction
<u>Explanation:</u>
The oxidation reaction is defined as the reaction in which a chemical species loses electrons in a chemical reaction. It occurs when oxidation number of a species increases.
A reduction reaction is defined as the reaction in which a chemical species gains electrons in a chemical reaction. It occurs when oxidation number of a species decreases.
For the given chemical reaction:
<u>On the reactant side:</u>
Oxidation number of H = +1
Oxidation number of N = +5
Oxidation number of O = -2
Oxidation number of S = 0
<u>On the product side:</u>
Oxidation number of H = +1
Oxidation number of N = +2
Oxidation number of O = -2
Oxidation number of S = +6
As the oxidation number of S is increasing from 0 to +6. Thus, it is getting oxidized. Similarly, the oxidation number of N is decreasing from +5 to +2. Thus, it is getting reduced.
The oxidation numbers of O and H remain the same on both sides of the reaction. Thus, they are neither getting oxidized or reduced.
Hence, S is getting oxidized, N is getting reduced and O and H undergo no oxidation or reduction
Answer : 51.8 g of nitrogen are needed to produce 100 grams of ammonia gas.
Solution : Given,
Mass of = 100 g
Molar mass of = 27 g/mole
Molar mass of = 28 g/mole
First we have to calculate moles of .
The given balanced chemical reaction is,
From the given reaction, we conclude that
2 moles of produced from 1 mole of
3.7 moles of produced from
of
Now we have to calculate the mass of .
Mass of = Moles of
× Molar mass of
Mass of = 1.85 mole × 28 g/mole = 51.8 g
Therefore, 51.8 g of nitrogen are needed to produce 100 grams of ammonia gas.
