1.So based on the equation 3 moles of CuO produces 1 mole of N2.This mole ratio is used to determine the moles of nitrogen formed.
First the grams of CuO is used to get the moles of CuO present by dividing mass by RMM(79.5gmol)
157.4g/79.5gmol=1.98moles
Then you use the moles of CuO to find the moles of N2
You divide the moles by 3 since the mole ration is 3:1.
1.98moles/3=0.66 moles of N2
To the tenth position-0.7 moles of N2.
2.In the equation 2 moles of Hydrogen is used to produce one mole of methane.To get the moles of methane produce from mass given you divide the mass by the RMM of methane.192.4grams/16gmol-1=12.03 moles of methane.
Hydrogen to methane mole ration is 2:1 so you multiply the moles of methane by 2.This gives 24.05 moles of Hydrogen.
24.1 moles of Hydrogen is needed to produce 192.4 grams of methane.
