A multi-nutrient fertilizer contains several different nitrogen containing compounds. The fertilizer is 54.8% CH4N20 (urea), 22.1% KNO3, and 11.9% (NH4)2HPO4 by mass. The remainder of the fertilizer consists of substances that do not contain nitrogen. How much fertilizer should someone apply to provide 2.80 g N to a plant?

magnesium oxide can be produced by heating magnesium metal in the presence of oxygen. When 10.1 g of Mg reacts with 10.5 g of O2, 11.9 g of MgO are collected. What is the balanced equation for this reaction, including all states of matter?
Grease fires can be extinguished by applying baking soda (sodium hydrogen carbonate), which decomposes due to the heat to produce sodium oxide, carbon dioxide and water. The carbon diocide produced helps to smother the flames. How many grams of baking soda would need to be thrown on to a fire to produce 0.500 moles (approximately 11 L) of carbon dioxide gas?
E-85 is an alternative fuel for automobiles and light trucks that consists of 85.0% (by volume) ethanol (C2H5OH), and 15.0% gasoline. When ethanol burns completely it produces CO2 and H2O. The balanced equation for the burning of ethanol isC2H5OH+3O2-->2CO2+3H2OThe density of ethanol is 0.790 g/mL. How many moles of carbon dioxide are produced by the complete combustion of the quantity of ethanol in 8.00 gallons of E-85 fuel? _mol CO2
83. The combustion of gasoline produces carbon dioxide and water. Assume gasoline to be pure octane (C8H18) and cal- culate how many kilograms of carbon dioxide are added to the atmosphere per 1.0 kg of octane burned. (Hint: Begin by writing a balanced equation for the combustion reaction.)
What mass of CO2 (in Kg) does the combustion of a 12-gallon tank of gasoline release into the atmosphere? Assume the gasoline is pure octane (C8H18) and that it has density of 0.70 g/mL. You will need a balanced chemical equation for combustion of octane.
In one experiment, 12.0 g of PCl5 was slowly added to 15.0 g of H2O according to the following balanced chemical equation: Pcl5(s)+4H2O(l) ---> H3PO4 (aq) + 5HCl (g) The molar masses for each compounds in the equation are as follows; PCl5: 208.224 g/mol H2O: 18.015 g/mol H3PO4: 97.994 g/mol HCl; 36.45 g/mol What is the limiting reagent in this scenario? Your answer should be an explanation! You're not solving anything. Note! Make an accurate claim: The limiting reagent in this scenario is _____.
