Independent Variable: amount of sunlight given
Dependent Variable: How tall the plants grow
Control: The plant given no sunlight
Answer: The Taiga Forest
Explanation: I just took the test on e2020
1. The balanced equation tells us that 2 moles of H2S produce 2 moles of H2O.
8.3 moles H2S x (2 moles H2O / 2 moles H2S) = 8.3 moles H2O = theoretical amount produced
8.3 moles H2O x (18.0 g H2O / 1 mole H2O) = 149 g H2O produced theoretically
% yield = (actual amount produced / theoretical amount) x 100 = (137.1 g / 149 g) x 100 = 91.8 % yield
2. Calculate moles of each reactant.
150.0 g N2 x (1 mole N2 / 28.0 g N2) = 5.36 moles N2
32.1 g H2 x (1 mole H2 / 2.02 g H2) = 15.9 moles H2
The balanced equation tells us that we need 3 moles of H2 to react with every 1 mole of N2.
So if we have 5.36 moles N2, we need 3x that = 16.1 moles H2. Do we have that much available? No, just under at 15.9 moles. So H2 is the limiting reactant. At the end of the reaction there will be a little N2 left over.
