Hydrogen cyanide, HCN, can be made by a two-step process. First, ammonia reacts with O2 to give nitric oxide, NO. 4NH3(g) + 5O2(g) → 4NO(g) + 6H2O(g)

Then nitric oxide reacts with methane, CH4.

2NO(g) + 2CH4(g) → 2HCN(g) + 2H2O(g) + H2(g)

When 50.2 g of ammonia and 48.4 g of methane are used, how many grams of hydrogen cyanide can be produced? How many grams of which reactant remain at the end of both reactions? (You may assume that O2 is in excess in the first reaction.)

The mass of HCN is 79.65 g.

The mass of reactant which remain at the end of both reactions is 88.5 g.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of ammonia = 50.2 g

Mass of methane = 48.4 g

Hydrogen cyanide, HCN, can be made by a two-step process

Ammonia reacts with O₂ to give nitric oxide NO.

The reaction is,

We need to calculate the mole of NO

Using given data,

2.25 g NH_{3}=\dfrac{50.2}{17}= 2.95\ mole\ NH_{3} [/tex]

2.95 mol NH₃ will produced 2.95 mol NO

Then nitric oxide reacts with methane,

The reaction is,

We need to calculate the mole of methane

Using given data,

2 mole NO produced 2 mole HCN

2.95 mol NO will produced = 2.95 mol HCN

We need to calculate the mass of HCN

Using formula of mass

Where, N = number of mole

M = molecular mass

Put the value into the formula

The mass of HCN is 79.65 g.

We need to calculate the mass of NO

Using formula of mass

Where, N = number of mole

M = molecular mass

Put the value into the formula

Hence, The mass of HCN is 79.65 g.

The mass of reactant which remain at the end of both reactions is 88.5 g.

for step 7 table c on the lab "newtons law of action"   the average time it took the car to travel .25 meters   was 1.92 seconds.

the average time it took the car to travel 0.50 meters was 2.61 seconds

hope this : )
