The reaction is an intermediate step in the conversion of the nitrogen in organic compounds into nitrate ions. What mass of bacterial tissue is produced in a treatment plant for every 1.0 104 kg of wastewater containing 3.0% NH4+ ions by mass?

- You take 1.00 g of an aspirin tablet (a compound consisting solely of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen), burn it in air, and collect 2.20 g CO2 and 0.400 g H2O. You know that the molar mass of aspirin is between 170 and 190 g/mol. Reacting 1 mole of salicylic acid with I mole of acetic anhydride (C4H6O3) gives you 1 mole of aspirin and 1 mole of acetic acid (C2H4O2). Use this information to determine the molecular formula of salicylic acid.arrow_forwardA 2.5624-g sample of a pure solid alkali metal chloride is dissolved in water and treated with excess silver nitrate. The resulting precipitate, filtered and dried, weighs 3.03707 g. What was the percent by mass of chloride ion in the original compound? What is the identity of the salt?arrow_forward3.14 A number of compounds are used in cement, and reactions among them occur when water is added. In one, CaO reacts with Al2O3 and water to form Ca3Al2(OH)12. Write a bal- anced chemical equation for this process.arrow_forward

A cereal product containing 58% H2O by mass is produced at the rate of 1000. kg/h. What mass of water must be evaporated per hour if the final product contains only 20.% water?arrow_forwardIron forms a sulfide with the approximate formula Fe7S8.

What is the ratio of Fe(II) atoms to Fe(III) atoms in this compound?arrow_forwardThe present average concentration (mass percent) of magnesium ions in seawater is 0.13%. A chemistry textbook estimates that if 1.00 × 108 tons Mg were taken out of the sea each year, it would take one million years for the Mg concentration to drop to 0.12%. Do sufficient calculations to either verify or refute this statement. Assume that Earth is a sphere with a diameter of 8000 mi, 67% of which is covered by oceans to a depth of 1 mi, and that no Mg is washed back into the oceans at any time.arrow_forward
- Calcium carbonate forms carbon dioxide and calcium oxide when it is heated above 900 °C in a limekiln. When heated to 1000 °C in a laboratory, 4.31 g calcium carbonate produces 2.40 g calcium oxide and 1.90 g carbon dioxide. Outline a method similar to combustion analysis by which you could determine the empirical formula for calcium carbonate from these data.

Energy Independence and Security Act calls for annual production of 3.6 1010 gal of ethanol, no more than 40% of it produced by fermentation of corn. Fermentation of 1 ton (2.2 103 lb) of corn yields approximately 106 gal of ethanol. The average corn yield in the United States is about 2.1 105 lb per 1.0 105 m2.
