The development of the Haber-Bosch process for manufacturing ammonia from elemental hydrogen and nitrogen was a major industrial revolution that had a significant effect during World War I. To maximize the percent yield, the reactio is carried out at 20.0 MPa and 450 °C. Calculate the percent yield if 750 L of ammonia gas is collected when 21.8 kg of hydrogen gas is reacted with excess nitrogen gas. Hint: Write a balanced chemical equation first. Do not show your work in the space provided. Record only your final answer with the correct number of significant digits and the proper units.

At elevated temperatures, sodium chlorate decomposes to produce sodium chloride and oxygen gas. A 0.8765-g sample of impure sodium chlorate was heated until the production of oxygen gas ceased. The oxygen gas collected over water occupied 57.2 mL at a temperature of 22C and a pressure of 734 torr. Calculate the mass percent of NaClO3 in the original sample. (At 22C the vapor pressure of water is 19.8 torr.)
The nitrogen content of organic compounds can be determined by the Dumas method. The compound in question is first reacted by passage over hot CuO(s): CompoundCuO(s)HotN2(g)+CO2(g)+H2O(g) The product gas is then passed through a concentrated solution of KOH to remove the CO2. After passage through the KOH solution, the gas contains N2 and is saturated with water vapor. In a given experiment a 0.253-g sample of a compound produced 31.8 mL N2 saturated with water vapor at 25C and 726 torr. What is the mass percent of nitrogen in the compound? (The vapor pressure of water at 25C is 23.8 torr.)

The hydrocarbon naphthalene was frequently used in mothballs until recently, when it was discovered that human inhalation of naphthalene vapors can lead to hemolytic anemia. Naphthalene is 93.71% carbon by mass, and a 0.256-mole sample of naphthalene has a mass of 32.8 g. What is the molecular formula of naphthalene? This compound works as a pesticide in mothballs by. sublimation of the .solid so that it fumigates enclosed spaces with its vapors according to the equation Naphthalene(s)naphthalene(g)K=4.29106(at298K) If 3.00 g solid naphthalene is placed into an enclosed space with a volume of 5.00 L at 25C, what percentage of the naphthalene will have sublimed once equilibrium bas been established?
