The ratio of nitrogen to oxygen by mass in NO is 7.0:8.0. Identify the ratio of nitrogen to oxygen by mass in NO2 and N2O7 .

1 answer:

3 0

This problem is providing the ratio of nitrogen to oxygen by mass in nitrogen monoxide, NO, as 7.0:8.0 and asks for the same ratio but in NO₂ and N₂O₇. After doing the calculations, the results are 7.0:16.0 and 1.0:4.0 respectively.

<h3>Mass ratios:</h3>

In chemistry, one can calculate the mass ratios in chemical formulas according to the atomic mass of each atom. In such a way, one knows the mass ratio of nitrogen to oxygen in NO is 7.0:8.0 because we divide the atomic mass of nitrogen by oxygens:

$\frac{14}{16}=\frac{7.0}{8.0}$

Now, for chemical formulas with subscripts, one must multiply the atomic mass of the element by the subscript in the formula, which is the case of NO₂ and N₂O₇ as shown below:

$NO_2:\frac{14}{16*2}=\frac{14}{32} =\frac{7.0}{16.0} \\
\\
N_2O_7:\frac{14*2}{16*7}=\frac{28}{112} =\frac{1.0}{4.0}$

Therefore, the results for NO₂ and N₂O₇ are 7.0:16.0 and 1.0:4.0 respectively

why do you use a graduated cylinder to measure out the desired volume of koh and h2so4, rather than a pipet or a buret?

sergey [27]

The graduated cylinder is used to measure the volume of KOH and H2SO4 when accurate volume measurement is not required.

In the laboratory certain graduated apparatus are used to measure liquids. These graduated apparatus used to measure liquids include;

burette
pipette
measuring cylinder
Erlenmeyer flask

Sometimes, we are not really looking for a strictly accurate volume of liquid and we can use a graduated cylinder to measure the volume of liquid in such cases.

However, when we need to have strictly accurate volume measurement, we need a pipet or a buret.

Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

Sodium is a silvery-white metal that reacts with chlorine gas, which is a yellow-greenish gas that is toxic. The reaction gives off a lot of heat. After the reaction, which statement is true about the chemical properties of the product, sodium chloride?

Pure sodium reacts violently and sometimes explosively with water producing sodium hydroxide, hydrogen gas and heat

2Na(s) + 2H2O(l) → 2NaOH(aq) + H2(g)

Chlorine is a very poisonous yellow green gas with a sharp odour that was used in gas warfare during WW1

Sodium and chlorine reacts with each other, however, to produce one of the most familiar substance used in cooking and preservation industry today Sodium Chloride or Common salt or table salt in the irreversible equation;

2Na(s) + Cl2(g) → 2NaCl(s)

Explanation:

It is easy to see why this reaction takes place so readily sodium has one electron in its outermost valence shell while chlorine has seven electrons in its valence shell. when sodium atom transfers one electron to chlorine atom forming a sodium cation (Na+) and a chloride anion (Cl-) both ions have complete valence shells and are energetically more stable. the reaction is extremely exothermic, producing a bright yellow light and a great deal of heat and fumes of sodium chloride.

In a reaction observation of the reaction process you will see sodium flares up almost immediately upon reaction with water.

A solution is made by mixing 37.g of thiophene C4H4S and 72.g of heptane C7H16. Calculate the mole fraction of thiophene in this

guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

0.38

Explanation:

Molar mass of thiophene= 84g/mol

Mass of thiophene = 37g

Number of moles= 37/84= 0.44 moles

Molar mass of heptane= 100 g/mol

Mass of heptane = 72g

Number of moles = 72/100= 0.72 moles

Total number of moles= 0.44 + 0.72= 1.16 moles

mole fraction of thiophene = 0.44/1.16= 0.38

In the haber process, ammonia is synthesized from nitrogen and hydrogen: n2 (g) + 3h2 (g) → 2nh3 (g) δg° at 298 k for this react

allsm [11]

Answer:

e- 7.25 x 10³.

Explanation:

∵ ΔG = -RTlnK,

where, ΔG is the free energy change.

R is the general gas constant (R = 8.324 J/mol.K).

K is the equilibrium constant of the reaction.

For the reaction: <em>N₂(g) + 3H₂(g) → 2NH₃(g),</em>

K = (PNH₃)²/(PN₂)(PH₂)³ = (0.65)²/(1.9)(1.6)³ = 5.43 x 10⁻².

∵ ΔG = -RTlnK.

∴ ΔG = -(8.314 J/mol.K)(298 K) ln(5.43 x 10⁻²) = 7.218 x 10³ J/mol.

A closed vessel system of volume 2.5 L contains a mixture of neon and fluorine. The total pressure is 3.32 atm at 0.0°C. When th

gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

moles Ne = 0.154 mol

moles F₂ = 0.217 mol

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Volume of the vessel system = 2.5 L

Total pressure = 3.32 atm at 0.0 °C

The mixture is heated to 15.0 °C

The entropy of the mixture increases by 0.345 J/K

The heat capacity of monoatomic gas = 3/2R and that for a diatomic gas = 5/2R

Step 2: Define the gas

Neon is a monoatomic gas, composed of Ne atoms

⇒ Cv(Ne) ≅ (3/2)R

Fluorine is a diatomic gas, composed of F₂ molecules.

⇒ Cv(F₂) ≅ (5/2)R

Step 3: Calculate moles of gas

p*V = n*R*T

⇒ with p = the total pressure = 3.32 atm

⇒ with V = the total volume = 2.5 L

⇒ with n = the number of moles of gas

⇒ with R = the gas constant = 0.08206 L*atm/K*mol

⇒ with T = the temperature = 273.15 Kelvin

n(total) = p*V/RT = (3.32 atm*2.5 L)/(0.08206 L*atm/mol•K*273.15) = 0.3703 mol

Step 4: Calculate moles of Ne and F2

For one mole heated at constant volume,

∆S = Cv*ln(288.15/273.15) = 0.05346*Cv

⇒ ∆S for 0.3703 mol,

∆S = (0.3703 mol)(0.05346)Cv = 0.345 J/K

⇒ Cv = 17.43 J/mol*K for the Ne/F₂ mixture.

For pure Ne, Cv = (3/2)R = 1.5*8.314 J/mol*K = 12.471 J/mol*K

For pure F₂, Cv = (5/2)R = 2.5 * 8.314 J/mol*K = 20.785 J/mol*K

if X is the mole fraction of Ne, we can find X by:

17.43 J/mol*K = X* 12.471 J/mol*K + (1 – X) * 20.785 J/mol*K

⇒ 20.875 – 8.314 * X = 17.43

X = 0.415 , 1 – X = 0.585

moles Ne = (0.415)(0.3703 mol) = 0.154 mol

moles F₂ = (0.585)(0.3703 mol) = 0.217 mol
