Answer: The mass of ammonia is 5.236 g and that of sulfuric acid is 15.064 g
Explanation:
To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:
.....(1)
Given mass of ammonium sulfate = 20.3 g
Molar mass of ammonium sulfate = 132.14 g/mol
Putting values in equation 1, we get:
The chemical equation for the reaction of ammonia and sulfuric acid follows:
As, sulfuric acid remains unreacted, which means it is an excess reagent and its starting mass cannot be determined from ammonium sulfate.
By Stoichiometry of the reaction:
1 mole of ammonium sulfate is produced by 2 moles of ammonia.
So, 0.154 moles of ammonium sulfate is produced by = of ammonia.
Now, calculating the mass of ammonia from equation 1, we get:
Molar mass of ammonia = 17 g/mol
Moles of ammonia = 0.308 moles
Putting values in equation 1, we get:
Law of conservation of mass states that mass can neither be created nor be destroyed but it can only be transformed from one form to another form.
This also means that total mass on the reactant side must be equal to the total mass on the product side.
Let the mass of sulfuric acid be 'x' grams
We are given:
Mass of ammonium sulfate = 20.3 grams
Mass of ammonia = 5.236 grams
Total mass on reactant side = 5.236 + x
Total mass on product side = 20.3 g
So, by applying law of conservation of mass, we get:
Hence, the mass of ammonia is 5.236 g and that of sulfuric acid is 15.064 g
sunlight
rain
bacteria
Answer:
The correct answer is option d: bacteria
Explanation:
Hello! Let's solve this!
Abiotic components are those that have no life and biotics are the factors that have life.
Let's see each option!
Nutrients: they have no life, they can be calcium, protasium, vitamins
sunlight: it has no life, it comes from the sun
rain: it has no life, it is condensed water and it falls to the earth in the form of drops
bacteria: they have life, they are cells so they are living beings.
We conclude that the correct answer is option d: bacteria
The element that is most likely to form covalent bonds with carbon (C) is
Selenium (Se)
Explanation
Covalent bond is formed when there is sharing of electrons among two or more non metals.
Both carbon and selenium are non metals therefore they react to form a covalent bond by sharing electron.
Despite krypton been a non metal it does not form a covalent bond with carbon since krypton is inert ( non reactive).
Beryllium (Be) and sodium (Na) are metals therefore they form ionic bond with carbon instead of covalent bond.
Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
Atomic number of carbon is 6 and its electronic configuration is 2, 4. So, in order to complete its octet, it requires 4 more electrons.
Therefore, carbon form covalent bonds, that is, it shares electrons with and electron deficient atom.
Krypton is a noble gas and has completely filled octet. So, it will neither give to share its electrons with carbon atom.
Whereas beryllium and sodium does not have enough valence electrons to share. Hence, they will not form bond with carbon atom.
On the other hand, selenium being a non-metal is electron deficient and therefore, in order to complete its octet it will share its electrons with carbon atom.
Thus, we can conclude that the element carbon (C) is most likely to form covalent bonds with the element selenium (Se).
