How many grams of Li3N can be formed from 1.75 moles of Li? Assume an excess of nitrogen. 6 Li(s) + N2(
g. → 2 Li3N(s)

Respuesta :

The balance chemical reaction is:

6 Li(s) + N2(g) → 2 Li3N(s)

We use the amount of the Lithium reactant and the relations of the substances from the reaction to calculate the amount of product produced. We do as follows:

1.75 mol Li ( 2 mol Li3N / 6 mol Li ) (34.83 g / mol) = 20.32 g Li

From the 1.75 moles of Li, the  [tex]\rm Li_3N[/tex] formed is 20.317 grams.

The formation equation for [tex]\rm Li_3N[/tex] will be:

[tex]\rm 6\;Li\;+\;N_2\;\rightarrow\;2\;Li_3N[/tex]

For 6 moles of Li, there will be 2 moles of  [tex]\rm Li_3N[/tex].

For 1.75 moles of Li,  [tex]\rm Li_3N[/tex] will be:

= [tex]\rm \dfrac{2}{6} \;\times\;1.75[/tex]

= 0.583 moles.

The molecular mass of  [tex]\rm Li_3N[/tex] is 34.83 g/mol.

moles = [tex]\rm \dfrac{weight}{molecular\;weight}[/tex]

weight = moles [tex]\times[/tex] molecular weight

weight of  [tex]\rm Li_3N[/tex] formed = 0.583 [tex]\times[/tex] 34.83 grams

weight of  [tex]\rm Li_3N[/tex] formed = 20.317 grams.

The  [tex]\rm Li_3N[/tex] formed is 20.317 grams.
