The answer is that exact locations within either cannot be determined at any given moment in time.
An electron cloud be compared with a spinning airplane propeller in the manner that in both exact location within either cannot be determined at any given moment in time.
In both electron cloud as well as spinning airplane propeller, there is a probability of finding either but exact location can not be determined.
Full Question:
Ammonia chemically reacts with oxygen gas to produce nitric oxide and water. What mass of water is produced by the reaction of 7.7g of ammonia?
Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.
Answer:
12.23g ≈ 12g (2 s.f)
Explanation:
Ammonia chemically reacts with oxygen gas to produce nitric oxide and water. The balanced chemical reaction is given as:
4 NH3 + 5 O2 -------> 4 NO + 6 H2O
From the reaction;
4 mole of ammonia reacts to produce 6 moles of water
From the question;
Moles = mass / molar mass
From the question;
moles of ammonia = mass / molar mass = 7.7 / 17 = 0.4529moles
Number of moles of water produced;
4 = 6
0.4529 = x
x = (0.4529 * 6 ) / 4
x = 0.67935moles
Mass of water = moles * molar mass = 0.67935 * 18 = 12.23g ≈ 12g (2 s.f)
