Hydrogen

In problem one, we were simulating an ammonia production by reacting nitrogen and hydrogen in a reaction called Haber process. Haber process is a very economic exothermic reaction to produce ammonia by reacting nitrogen and hydrogen using a metal catalyst in high pressure and temperature. Nitrogen was obtained from the air and therefore, some argon would be included in this simulation. On the other hand, hydrogen was obtained from the cracking of petroleum. The simulation process started where…

dichlorobutanes are 8.34% for 1,1 dichlorobutane, 21.30% for 1,2 dichlorobutane, 44.50% for 1,3 dichlorobutane, and 25.86% for 1,4 dichlorobutane. The Relative Reactivities per hydrogen of the C-1, C-2, and C-3 positions in 1-chlorobutane compared to the C-4 position was 0.48: 1.24: 2.58: 1. These results show us that the primary hydrogens…

The Hydrogen produced at such temperatures can easily explode by combining with the oxygen of the atmosphere. This reaction is known as a single displacement reaction because aluminum switches with the hydrogen. When aluminum is placed in a beaker of hydrochloric acid, the reaction produces hydrogen gas and aqueous aluminum chloride. The balanced chemical equation for the reaction is 2Al + 6HCl = 2AlCl3+ 3H2. The reaction produces two moles of aluminum chloride and three moles of hydrogen gas.…

the two atoms of the bond. A nonpolar bond shares a pair of electrons with each other between two atoms of the bond. Water is polar because it has 18 electrons and it only holds 16 so there are 2 left which makes it unevenly distributed between hydrogen and oxygen. 10. An ion is a molecule or atom that gets either a negative or positive charge as a result of it losing or gaining one or more of its valence electrons. An ionic bond has an electrostatic force between oppositely charged ions in…

have strong properties of hydrogen bonding. While we thought water wouldn't mix , we predicted Dichloromethane , n-Pentanol,Methanol,Toulene and Water to mix. Again our predictions were not exact in that water did not mix with any of the substances except Methanol. This again was due to water's strong properties of hydrogen bonding, resisting to interact with molecules that do not also have strong properties of hydrogen bonding. While n-Pentanol is capable of hydrogen bonding, in reference to…

the hydrogen and carbon molecules from dietary fats, proteins, and carbohydrates are mixed with oxygen to form carbon dioxide and water as energy is released. These end products that are produced during aerobic metabolism are to some extent harmless and simply eliminated from the body. The citric acid cycle, sometimes called the Krebs cycle, provides the final common pathway for the aerobic metabolism of nutrients. The electron transport system is where oxidation of electrons from the hydrogen…

Molar Volume of a Gas Lab The purpose of the lab was to do an experiment to determine the molar volume of hydrogen gas at standard temperature and pressure, or STP. To start the experiment, a beaker was filled with water and then a cage was created with a copper wire. A piece of magnesium was cut and placed inside the cage in order to keep the reaction going until all of the magnesium reacted with the hydrochloric acid. The eudiometer tube was filled with 15 mL of hydrochloric acid and water…

indicating that the concentration of hydrogen ions increased significantly. With the base, NaOH, the pH of the tap water changed from 7 to 12 after 30 drops, indicating that the concentration of of hydrogen ions decreased significantly. These changes occurred in the tap water because there are no chemical buffers present in water. In the potato homogenate, when 30 drops of HCl were added the pH changed from 6 to 3.5 (a less significant increase in the concentration of hydrogen ions), and when 30…

In this experiment, solid magnesium was conducted in a chemical reaction with hydrochloric acid solution. The three objectives include: measuring the gas production of a chemical reaction by a pressure change, determining the mass of the hydrogen gas produced in the reaction, and determining the effectiveness of the procedure by calculating the percent yield. In order to complete these objectives, a flask containing the magnesium ribbon was completely submerged into a large beaker filled with…

industrial synthesis of methanol (CH3OH), carbon monoxide (CO) reacts with hydrogen gas. For methanol, ΔH= -100.4 kJ/mol. Write the balanced chemical equation for this reaction. Is it better to maintain this system at a low or high temperature, to obtain a good output? Is it preferable to maintain this system at high or low pressure? Explain. During the industrial synthesis of methanol (CH3OH), carbon monoxide (CO) reacts with hydrogen gas. For methanol, ΔH= -100.4 kJ/mol. Write the balanced…
