Answer to Question #290170 in Inorganic Chemistry for anne

Question

1. Metallic silver can be prepared by the reaction of hydrogen gas on silver oxide.
   
2. You react 16.7 g of Ag2O with 3.20 g H2?
3. What is the limiting reagent?
4. How many grams of Ag are produced?
5. Arcylonitrile

Answer 1

Ag₂O + H₂ = 2 Ag + H₂ O .

Moles of Ag₂O = 16.7 / 232 = 0.072 mol.

Moles of H₂ = 3.2 / 2 = 1.6 mol.

Limiting reagent is Ag₂O.

Moles of Ag Formed = ( 2 × 0.072 ) mol. = 0.144 mol.

Mass of Ag formed = 0.144 × 108 g

= 15.552 g Answer .

Acrylonitrile is a colorless, liquid, man-made chemical with a sharp, onion- or garlic-like odor. It can be dissolved in water and evaporates quickly. Acrylonitrile is used to make other chemicals such as plastics, synthetic rubber, and acrylic fibers.
