Hydrogen cyanide, HCN, is prepared from ammonia, air, and natural gas (CH4) by the following process: Pt 2NH3 (9) + 30, (g) + 2CH, (g) 2HCN(9) + 6H,O(g) Hydrogen cyanide is used to prepare sodium cyanide, which is used in part to obtain gold from gold-containing rock. If a reaction vessel contains 6.10 g NH3, 13.0 g O2, and 6.33 g CH4, what is the maximum mass in grams of hydrogen cyanide that could be made, assuming the reaction goes to completion as written? Mass = g HCN

(b) What is the maximum amount of aluminium that can be produced from 102 g of aluminium oxide (Al2O3) in the following reaction process: 2Al2O3 → 4Al + 3O2
Consider the haber-bosch process for the synthesis of ammonia from its elements. Calculate the theoretical yield in moles NH3 from the complete reaction of 15.6 grams H2 in the presence of excess N2 gas according to the following balanced chemical equation. N2(g) + 3H2(g) -> 2NH3(g)
Standard airbags for automobiles used to implement the formation of sodium azide as a source of nitrogen gas. This has since been replaced due to the potential caustic nature of the products. The sodium azide required for automobile air bags is made by the reaction of sodium metal with dinitrogen oxide in liquid ammonia: 3N2O(g) + 4Na(s) + NH3(l)→ NaN3(s) + 3NaOH(s) + 2N2(g) a. You have 65.0 g of sodium and a 35.0 L flask containing N2O gas with a pressure of 2.12 atm at 296 K. What is the maximum possible yield (in grams) of the NaN3?
Chloramine is a toxic gas that can form in swimming pools by the reaction of hypochlorous acid, used to sanitize pool water, with ammonia, a component of sweat and urine. Chloramine gas, NH₂Cl(g), is the cause of the identifiable 'pool smell'. The balanced chemical equation for the reaction of hypochlorous acid and ammonia is: HOCl(aq) + NH₃(aq) → NH₂Cl(g) + H₂O(l) A swimming pool holding 9.50 × 10⁴ gallons of water. 1.00 gallons HOCl sanitizer is enough to sanitize 1.00 × 10⁴ gallons of pool water. The sanitizer has a concentration of 12.00 mg/L of Cl atoms. Determine the moles of chloramine are produced if ammonia is in excess. (1 gal = 3.785 L)
(a) A mixture sample containing 80% NaHCO3 and 20%NaCl was marketed for certain food preparations. As an analytical chemist, you took a 2.00 g of the mixture and heated it until the decomposition reaction was complete and found the final mass was 1.02 g. Based on this, calculate the percent of NaHCO3 in the mixture. Assuming 80% is the actual value, what is the percent error in your measurement?
Aqueous solutions of ammonia 1NH32 and bleach (active ingredient NaOCl) are sold as cleaning fluids, but bottles of both of them warn: “Never mix ammonia and bleach, as toxic gases may be produced.” One of the toxic gases that can be produced is chloroamine, NH2Cl.Another toxic gas that can be produced is nitrogen trichloride, NCl3. What is the oxidation number of N in nitrogen trichloride?
Lead(II) carbonate, also called "white lead," was formerly used as a pigment in white paints. However, because of its toxicity, lead can no longer be used in paints intended for residential homes. Lead(II) carbonate is prepared industrially by reaction of aqueous lead(II) acetate with carbon dioxide gas. The unbalanced equation is Pb(C,H3 O2)2 (ag) + H2O(1) + CO2(9) → PbCO3(s) + HC,H3 O2 (ag) Suppose an aqueous solution containing 1.20 g of lead(II) acetate is treated with 5.85 g of carbon dioxide. Calculate the theoretical yield of lead carbonate. Theoretical yield = g PbCO3

A 235.2-g sample of ground water is analyzed for calcium. The Ca2+ in the sample is first precipitated and filtered-off as NH4CaPO4·7H2O. This precipitate is dried and heated, releasing water and ammonia to yield anhydrous calcium pyrophosphate (Ca2P2O7). The mass of Ca2P2O7 obtained is 0.0234 g.Give the calcium content of the ground water in parts per million (to three significant figures).
