Respuesta :

Answer:The volume of the remaining gas that is ammonia is 23.85 L.

Explanation:

[tex]NH_3(g)+HCl(g)\rightarrow NH_4Cl(s)[/tex]

Moles of [tex]NH_3=\frac{\text{mass of} NH_3}{\text{Molar mass of}NH_3}=\frac{75.5 g}{17.03 g/mol}=4.43 mole[/tex]

Moles of HCl of gas = [tex]\frac{\text{mass of} HCl}{\text{Molar mass of}HCl}=\frac{75.5 g}{36.5 g/mol}=2.06 mol[/tex]

According to reaction 1 mole of HCl reacts with 1 mol of [tex]NH_3[/tex] then 2.06 moles of HCl will react with = 2.06 moles of [tex]NH_3[/tex]

Moles left of ammonia left = 4.43 - 2.06 = 2.36 moles

Volume of the gas will be given by Ideal gas equation: PV=nRT

Pressure = 752 mmHg = 752 × 0.0031 atm = 2.33 atm

R = 0.08026 L atm/K mol

V = ? , n = number of moles of ammonia

Temperature = 14 °C = 14 + 273 K = 287 K(0°C = 273K)

[tex]V=\frac{2.36 mol\times 0.08206 L atm/K mol\times 287 K}{2.33 atm}=23.85 L[/tex]

The volume of the remaining gas that is ammonia is 23.85 L.

Answer : The volume of the gas remaining is 56.5 liters.

The gas is hydrochloric acid and the formula of the gas is HCl.

Explanation :

The balanced chemical reaction will be:

[tex]NH_3+HCl\rightarrow NH_4Cl[/tex]

First we have to calculate the moles of [tex]NH_3[/tex] and HCl.

[tex]\text{Moles of }NH_3=\frac{\text{Mass of }NH_3}{\text{Molar mass of }NH_3}[/tex]

Molar mass of [tex]NH_3[/tex] = 17 g/mole

[tex]\text{Moles of }NH_3=\frac{75.5g}{17g/mole}=4.44mole[/tex]

and,

[tex]\text{Moles of }HCl=\frac{\text{Mass of }HCl}{\text{Molar mass of }HCl}[/tex]

Molar mass of [tex]HCl[/tex] = 36.5 g/mole

[tex]\text{Moles of }HCl=\frac{75.5g}{36.5g/mole}=2.07mole[/tex]

Now we have to calculate the limiting and excess reagent.

From the balanced reaction we conclude that

As, 1 mole of [tex]HCl[/tex] react with 1 mole of [tex]NH_3[/tex]

So, 2.07 mole of [tex]HCl[/tex] react with 2.07 mole of [tex]NH_3[/tex]

From this we conclude that, [tex]NH_3[/tex] is an excess reagent because the given moles are greater than the required moles and [tex]HCl[/tex] is a limiting reagent and it limits the formation of product.

The remaining moles of [tex]HCl[/tex] gas = 4.44 - 2.07 = 2.37 moles

Now we have to calculate the volume of the gas remaining.

Using ideal gas equation :

[tex]PV=nRT[/tex]

where,

P = Pressure of gas = 752 mmHg = 0.989 atm     (1 atm = 760 mmHg)

V = Volume of gas = ?

n = number of moles of gas = 2.37 moles

R = Gas constant = [tex]0.0821L.atm/mol.K[/tex]

T = Temperature of gas = [tex]14.0^oC=273+14.0=287K[/tex]

Putting values in above equation, we get:

[tex]0.989atm\times V=2.37mole\times (0.0821L.atm/mol.K)\times 287K[/tex]

[tex]V=56.5L[/tex]

Thus, the volume of the gas remaining is 56.5 liters.

The gas is hydrochloric acid and the formula of the gas is HCl.
