Question
Hydrazine (N2H4) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) have been used as rocket propellants. They react according to the following equation:
7H2O2 + N2H4 ? 2HNO3 + 8H2O
a) When 68 kg of hydrazine react, how many grams of nitric acid can be formed?
Explanation / Answer
7H2O2 + N2H4 ? 2HNO3 + 8H2O
a. mass of HNO3 formed=268.8175 kg
b.mass of water formed = 392.43 grams
c.mass of hydrazine required= 58.08grams
d. H2O2 is the limiting reagent mass of water produced= 119.8 grams
e. excess hydrazine = 210.28 grams
