A possible practical way to eliminate oxides of nitrogen(such as NO2 ) from automobile exhaust gases uses cyanuricacid, C3N3(OH)3 . When heated to the relatively lowtemperature of 625°F, cyanuric acid converts to gaseousisocyanic acid (HNCO). Isocyanic acid reacts with NO2 inthe exhaust to form nitrogen, carbon dioxide, and water,all of which are normal constituents of the air. (a) Write balanced equations for these two reactions. (b) If the process described earlier became practical, howmuch cyanuric acid (in kilograms) would be requiredto absorb the 1.71010kgNO2 generated annuallyin auto exhaust in the United States?

4.17 Phosgene is a highly toxic gas that has been used as a chemical weapon at times in the past. It is now used in the manufacture of polycarbonates, which are used to make phone cases and plastic eyeglass lenses. Phosgene is produced by the reaction, CO+Cl2COCl2 . Given an excess of carbon monoxide, what mass of chlorine gas must be reacted to form 4.5 g of phosgene?
Lead(II) carbonate, also called “white lead,” was formerly used as a pigment in white paints. However, because of its toxicity, lead can no longer he used in paints intended for residential homes. Lead(II) carbonate is prepared industrially by reaction of aqueous lead(II) acetate with carbon dioxide gas. The unbalanced equation is :math>Pb(C2H3O2)2(aq)+H2O(l)+CO2(g)PbCO3(s)+HC2H3O2(aq) ppose an aqueous solution containing 1.25 g of lead(II) acetate is treated with 5.95 g of carbon dioxide. Calculate the theoretical yield of lead carbonate.
Although many sulfate salts are soluble in water, calcium sulfate is not (Table 7. 1). Therefore, a solution of calcium chloride will react with sodium sulfate solution to produce a precipitate of calcium sulfate. The balanced equation is :math>CaCl2(aq)+Na2SO4(aq)CaSO4(s)+2NaCl(aq) a solution containing 5.21 g of calcium chloride is combined with a solution containing 4.95 g of sodium sulfate, which is the limiting reactant?

Freon-12, CCl2F2, is prepared from CCl4 by reaction with HF. The other product of this reaction is HCl. Outline the steps needed to determine the percent yield of a reaction that produces 12.5 g of CCl2F2 from 32.9 g of Cd4. Freon-12 has been banned and is no longer used as a refrigerant because it catalyzes the decomposition of ozone and has a very long lifetime in the atmosphere. Determine the percent yield.
