How many NH3 molecules are produced by the reaction of 4 mol of Ca(OH)2 according to the following reaction

\({\left( {N{H_4}} \right)_2}S{O_4} + Ca{\left( {OH} \right)_2} \to 2N{H_3} + CaS{O_4} + 2{H_2}O\)

Short Answer

Expert verified

4.8 x 1024 molecules of NH3 are produced.

Step by step solution

01

Determining the number of moles of NH3

\({\left( {N{H_4}} \right)_2}S{O_4} + Ca{\left( {OH} \right)_2} \to 2N{H_3} + CaS{O_4} + 2{H_2}O\)

From the given balanced reaction, we can see that

1 mol of Ca (OH)2 produces 2 mol of NH3

So, 4 mol of Ca (OH)2 will produce 8 mol of NH3

02

Determining the number of molecules of NH3

1 mol of NH3 contains 6.022 x 1023 molecules of NH3

So, 8 mol of NH3 will contain

8 x 6.022 x 1023= 4.8 x 1024 molecules of NH3

Titration of a 20.0-mL sample of acid rain required 1.7 mL of 0.0811MNaOH to reach the end point. If we assume that the acidity of the rain is due to the presence of sulfuric acid, what was the concentration of sulfuric acid in this sample of rain?

(b)\(PC{l_3}\left( l \right) + C{l_2}\left( g \right) \to PC{l_5}\left( s \right)\)

(c)\({C_2}{H_4}\left( g \right) + 3{O_2}\left( g \right) \to 2C{O_2}\left( g \right) + 2{H_2}O\left( g \right)\)

A 20.00ml sample of aqueous oxalic acid H2C2O4 was titrated with a 0.09113M solution of potassium permanganate KMnO4,

\(2MnO_4^ - \left( {aq} \right) + 5{H_2}{C_2}{O_4}\left( {aq} \right) + 6{H^ + } \to 10C{O_2}\left( g \right) + 2M{n^{2 + }}\left( {aq} \right) + 8{H_2}O\left( l \right)\)

A volume of 23.24 ml was required to reach the endpoint. What is the oxalic acid molarity?

Silver can be separated from gold because silver dissolves in nitric acid while gold does not. Is the dissolution of silver in nitric acid an acid-base reaction or an oxidation-reduction reaction? Explain your answer.

Diatomic chlorine and sodium hydroxide(lye) are commodity chemicals produced in large quantities, along with diatomic hydrogen via the electrolysis of brine according to the following unbalanced equation:

\[NaCl\left( {aq} \right) + {H_2}O\left( l \right) \to NaOH\left( {aq} \right) + {H_2}\left( g \right) + C{l_2}\left( g \right).\]
