The greenhouse effect is rightly called that because greenhouses allow heat to enter, but doesn't allow heat to leave, which warms plants.
On earth however, it's much bigger. Our own atmosphere acts similarly to this; it allows heat in, but doesn't allow it to leave which heats up the planet and causes global warming.
There are 3 equations involved in manufacturing Nitric Acid from Ammonia.
First the ammonia is oxidized:
4NH3 + 5O2 = 4NO + 6H2O
Then for the absorption of the nitrogen oxides.
2NO + O2 = N2O4
Lastly, the N2O4 is further oxidized into Nitric acid.
3N2O4 + 2H2O = 4HNO3 + 2NO
Then run stoichiometry through these equations.
The first equation produces roughly 271,722,938 grams of NO
The second equation produces roughly 416,606,944 grams of N2O4
The last equation produces roughly 380,412,294 grams of HNO3 (nitric acid)
Convert the exact number back into tons, and your answer is: 419.332775 tons.
Rounded, I'm going to say that's 419.33 tons.
Hope this helps! :)
Also, it seems that commercially, Nitric Acid is commonly made by bubbling NO2 into water, rather than using ammonia.
Answer:
1.2 × 10⁴ cal
Explanation:
Given data
- Initial temperature: 80 °C
We can calculate the heat released by the water (
) when it cools using the following expression.
where
c is the specific heat capacity of water (1 cal/g.°C)
According to the law of conservation of energy, the sum of the heat released by the water () and the heat absorbed by the reaction (
) is zero.
Answer:asexual- Energy is not required to find a mate. Offspring are genetic clones. A negative mutation can make asexually produced organisms susceptible to disease and can destroy large numbers of offspring. Some methods of asexual reproduction produce offspring that are close together and compete for food and space.
Explanation:During sexual reproduction the genetic material of two individuals is combined to produce genetically diverse offspring that differ from their parents.
