If 1.3052 moles of magnesium is heated with 0.3782 moles of nitrogen forming magnesium nitride, how many grams of magnesium nitride will be produced?

Respuesta :

Answer:

104.56 g

Explanation:

Equation of the reaction is given as:

3 Mg   +   N₂    ⇒ Mg₃N₂

Given that:

1.3052 moles of magnesium is heated with 0.3782 moles of nitrogen forming magnesium nitride.

the molar mass of magnesium = 24 × 3 = 72 g/mol

the molar mass of nitrogen = 14 × 2  = 28 g/mol

we can determine their corresponding mass in gram;

for magnesium;

[tex]number of moles =\frac{mass}{molar mass}[/tex]

[tex]1.3052=\frac{mass}{72}[/tex]

[tex]mass=1.3052*72[/tex]

mass(g) of magnesium =  93.97 g

for nitrogen;

[tex]number of moles =\frac{mass}{molar mass}[/tex]

[tex]0.3782= \frac{mass}{28}[/tex]

[tex]mass= 0.3782*28[/tex]

mass(g) of nitrogen = 10.59 g

∴ the total gram that is produced when 1.3052 moles of magnesium is heated with 0.3782 moles of nitrogen forming magnesium nitride will be:

= 93.97 g + 10.59 g

= 104.56 g

Answer:

18.91 g.

Explanation:

Equation of the reaction:

3Mg + N2 --> Mg3N2

By stoichiometry, 3 moles of Magnesium reacted with 2 moles of Nitrogen to give 1 mole of Magnesium nitiride.

Determining the limiting reagent,

1.3052 mol of Mg * 2 mol lf N2/3 mol of Mg

= 0.87 mol on N2 (0.3782 mol of N2 is present)

N2 is the limiting reagent.

Since 2 moles of N2 reacted to give 1 mole of Magnesium nitride. Therefore,

Moles of Mg3N2 = 0.3782/2

= 0.1891 mol.

Molar mass of Mg3N2 = (24*3) + (14*2)

= 100 g/mol

Mass = molar mass * number of moles

= 100 * 0.1891

= 18.91 g of Mg3N2 is produced.
