Question
If you feed 10.0g of N2 gas and 10.0g of H2 into a reactor to make ammonia (NH3):
a. What is the limiting reactant and the excess reactant?
b. What is the maximum number of grams of NH3 that can be produced if 100% of the limiting reactant was reacted?
c. If 5.0g of the limiting reactant actually react, what is the fractional conversion of the limiting reactant, and why would you want to make ammonia, what is it useful for?

- Predict the product when the two substances mix. If the reaction occurs, write the balanced chemical equation. If the reaction does not happen, write "NA" A solution of nickel(III) nitrate is mixed with a solution of sodium hydroxide.arrow_forwardPlease explain the atomic balances!arrow_forwardNow, let's use what we know about chemistry to infer how much acetic acid was in our sample. Let's look closely at the equation for the reaction we performed. HC2H3O2(aq) + NaHCO3(s) → NaC2H3O2(aq) + H2O(1) + CO2(g) Based on this balanced chemical reaction, we can see that for every one mole of CO2 that was produced one mole of acetic acid was consumed. Based on this, calculate the moles of acetic acid and grams of acetic acid that must have reacted in each sample.

- The equilibrium constant with respect to temperature can be expressed for the reaction: Cyclohexane (g)! <--> methylcyclopentane (g) as: LnK = 4.814-2059/T. If placed to react 3 moles cyclohexane in a 5 liter container at a certain temperature and when equilibrium is reached, 8000 J of heat is released, Calculate the temperature of the container.arrow_forwardReading/References: Ch 7 and 13 [Seader, Henley, & Roper (SHR) Textbook] 1) Batch Distillation -Ethanol & Water. A mixture of 40% ethanol in water is distilled at 1 atm by differential distillation until 75% of the material charged to the still has vaporized.

If the Ksp for CDF2 is 6.44x10-3, then Q > K and a precipitate of CDF2 will form. O Q < K and more CDF2 will precipitate since the solution is not supersaturated. O Q < K and CdF2 does not precipitate. Q = K and the system is at equilibrium.arrow_forward

If 17,400 lb HClO4 leave the separator and the recycle is 6125 lb Ba(ClO4)2 over the time period, calculate: a. The overall conversion of Ba(ClO4)2. b. The lb of HClO4 leaving the separator per lb of feed. c. The lb of H2SO4 entering the reactor. d. The per pass conversion of Ba(ClO4)2. Note: 20 % H2SO4 is based on the total Ba(ClO4)2 entering the reactor. Use atomic balancearrow_forward
