- How does hydraulic fracturing differ from previously used techniques for the recovery of natural gas from the earth?arrow_forwardCalcium carbide, CaC2, is manufactured by reducing lime with carbon at high temperature. (The carbide is used in turn to make acetylene, an industrially important organic chemical.) Is the reaction endothermic or exothermic?arrow_forwardWhat possible uses exist for the natural gas liquids that are removed from natural gas during its processing?arrow_forward
- Use the appropriate tables to calculate H for (a) the reaction between copper(II) oxide and carbon monoxide to give copper metal and carbon dioxide. (b) the decomposition of one mole of methyl alcohol (CH3OH) to methane and oxygen gases.arrow_forwardWhat volume (in liters) of O2, measured at standard temperature and pressure, is required to oxidize 0.400 mol of phosphorus (P4)? P4(s) + 5 O2(g) P4O10(s)arrow_forwardA gaseous hydrocarbon reacts completely with oxygen gas to form carbon dioxide and water vapour. Given the following data, determine Hf for the hydrocarbon: Hreaction=2044.5KJ/molhydrocarbonHf(CO2)=393.5KJ/molHf(H2O)=242KJ/mol Density of CO2 and H2O product mixture at 1.00 atm, 200.c = 0.751g/L. The density of the hydrocarbon is less than the density of Kr at the same conditions.arrow_forward
- 62 Ammonium dinitramide (ADN), NH4N(NO2)2, was considered as a possible replacement for aluminium chloride as the oxidizer in the solid fuel booster rockets used to launch the space shuttle. When detonated by a spark, AND rapidly decomposes to produce a gaseous mixture of N2,O2, and H2O. (This is not a combustion reaction. The ADN is the only reactant.) The reaction releases a lot of heat, so the gases are initially formed at high temperature and pressure. The thrust of the rocket results mainly from the expansion of this gas mixture. Suppose a 2.3-kg sample of ADN is denoted and decomposes completely to give N2,O2, and H2O. If the resulting gas mixture expands until it reaches a temperature of 100°C and a pressure of 1.00 atm, what volume will it occupy? Is your answer consistent with the proposed use of ADN as a rocket fuel?arrow_forwardAnhydrous ammonia is used directly as a fertilizer, but much of it is also converted to other fertilizers such as ammonium nitrate and urea. a. Write a balanced equation for the conversion of ammonia to ammonium nitrate. b. Urea is formed in the reaction of ammonia and CO2. 2 NH3(g) + CO2(g) (NH2)2CO(s) + H2O(g) Would high pressure favor urea production? Would high temperature? fH for solid urea = 333.1 kJ/mol-rxn). Explain your answers.arrow_forwardGiven the following reaction of Ca(s) in HCl(aq): Ca(s) + 2 HCl(aq) --> CaCl2(aq) + H2(g) If 32.7g of calcium solid are placed in this reaction and at the end of the experiment, hydrogen gas is produced at 25.000C and with a pressure of 790. mmHg. Calculate the volume of hydrogen gas produced.arrow_forward
- Given the following equation: Mg(s) + 2HCl(aq) --> MgCl2(aq) + H2(g) After the reaction was completed the dry hydrogen gas(dry hydrogen gas means that the water vapor pressure has already been subtracted) had a volume of 2.00L at a pressure of 4.50atm and a temperature of 35C. If excess HCl was used, how much Magnesium metal was consumed. The atomic mass of Mg is 24.31g/mol.arrow_forwardA metal cylinder with a capacity of 6.0 L is filled with compressed propane (C3H8). The pressure and temperature of the cylinder when it was initially filled were 120 atm and 75 ◦C, respectively. The molar mass of carbon is 12 g·mol−1 and the molar mass of hydrogen is 1 g·mol−1. a) How many moles of propane are in the cylinder? b) What is the mass of the propane inside the cylinder? c) After some time, the cylinder and its contents cool to 25 ◦C. What is the pressure in the cylinder after it has cooled?arrow_forwardThe airbags that protect people in car crashes are inflated by the extremely rapid decomposition of sodium azide, which produces large volumes of nitrogen gas. 1. Write a balanced chemical equation, including physical state symbols, for the decomposition of solid sodium azide (NaN,) into solid sodium and gaseous dinitrogen. alb Ar 2. Suppose 12.0 L of dinitrogen gas are produced by this reaction, at a temperature of 13.0 °C and pressure of exactly 1 atm. Calculate the mass of sodium azide that must have reacted.
