Urea (H2NCONH2) is used extensively as a nitrogen source in fertilizers. It is produced commercially from the reaction of ammonia and carbon dioxide:
Ammonia gas at 223°C and 90. atm flows into a reactor at a rate of 500. L/min. Carbon dioxide at 223°C and 45 atm flows into the reactor at a rate of 600. L/min. What mass of urea is produced per minute by this reaction assuming 100% yield?

- 97 Homes in rural areas where natural gas service is not available often rely on propane to fuel kitchen ranges. The propane is stored as a liquid, and the gas to be burned is produced as the liquid evaporates. Suppose an architect has hired you to consult on the choice of a propane tank for such a new home. The propane gas consumed in 1.0 hour by a typical range burner at high power would occupy roughly 165 L at 25°C and 1.0 atm, and the range chosen by the client will have six burners. If the tank under consideration holds 500.0 gallons of liquid propane, what is the minimum number of hours it would take for the range to consume an entire tankful of propane? The density of liquid propane is 0.5077 kg/L.arrow_forwardA cylinder of compressed gas is labeled Composition (mole %): 4.5% H2S, 3.0% CO2, balance N2. The pressure gauge attached to the cylinder reads 46 atm. Calculate the partial pressure of each gas, in atmospheres, in the cylinder.arrow_forwardSome commercial drain cleaners use a mixture of sodium hydroxide and aluminum powder. When the solid mixture is poured into the drain and dissolves, a reaction ensues that produces hydrogen gas: 2NAOH(aq) + 2Al(s) + 6H20() - 2NAAI(OH)4(aq) + 3H2(g) Determine the pressure (in kPa) of hydrogen gas produced when 39.82 g of aluminum reacts with excess sodium hydroxide and water if the temperature is 38.17 C and the volume is 7.22 L.

Aluminum reacts with aqueous sodium hydroxide to produce hydrogen gas according to the following equation: 2Al(s) + 2NAOH(aq)+ 6H2O(1)–→2NAAI(OH)4(aq) + 3H2(g) The product gas, H2, is collected over water at a temperature of 20 °C and a pressure of 757 mm Hg. If the wet H2 gas formed occupies a volume of 9.31 L, the number of grams of H, formed is g. The vapor pressure of water is 17.5 mm Hg at 20 °C.

- When limestone (solid CaCO3) is heated, it decomposes into lime (solid CaO) and carbon dioxide gas. This is an extremely useful industrial process of great antiquity, because powdered lime mixed with water is the basis for mortar and concrete — the lime absorbs CO2 from the air and turns back into hard, durable limestone. Suppose some calcium carbonate is sealed into a limekiln of volume 550.L and heated to 700.0°C. When the amount of CaCO3 has stopped changing, it is found that 4.14kg have disappeared. Calculate the pressure equilibrium constant Kp this experiment suggests for the equilibrium between CaCO3 and CaO at 700.0°C. Round your answer to 2 significant digits. Note for advanced students: it's possible there was some error in this experiment, and the value it suggests for Kp does not match the accepted value.arrow_forwardThe average kinetic energy of the molecules in a gas sample depends only on the temperature, T. However, given the same kinetic energies, a lighter molecule will move faster than a heavier molecule, as shown in the equation for rms speed 3 RT rms speed V M where R = 8.314 J/(mol·K) and M is molar mass in kilograms per mole. Note that a joule is the same as a kilogram-meter squared per second squared (kg-m²/Is?). What is the rms speed of Cl, molecules at 365 K? rms speed: m/s What is the rms speed of He atoms at 365 K? rms speed: m/sarrow_forwardThe production capacity for acrylonitrile (C3H3N) in the United States is over 2 billion pounds per year. Acrylonitrile, the building block for polyacrylonitrile fibers and a variety of plastics, is produced from gaseous propylene, ammonia, and oxygen: 2C3H6(g) + 2NH3(g) + 302(g) → 2C;H;N(g)+ 6H2O(g) Assuming 100% yield, determine the mass of acrylonitrile which can be produced from the mixture below: Mass Reactant 3.05x102 g propylene 5.00 x 102 g ammonia 1.00х 103 g охуgen g = mass of acrylonitrile produced What mass of water is formed from your mixture? mass of water formed = Calculate the mass (in grams) of each reactant after the reaction is complete: Reactant Mass remaining propylene ammonia охуgenarrow_forward
