ii) The maximum permitted sulfate concentration in water is 250mg dm^-3, 200cm^3 of aqueous BaCl2 is added to 300cm^3 of water at the maximum permitted sulfate level, and a white precipitate formed. Calculate the minimum conc. (mol dm^3)of the BaCl2

250x10^-3= 0.25g dm^-3sulfate mr x moles = mass0.25 x 3/10 = 0.075 g sulfatemr sulfare = 32 + (4 x 16) = 96moles sulfate = 0.075/96 = 7.8125 x10^-4Per equation above: moles SO₄

Assuming 100% yield, calculate the maximum volume of ammonia that could be produced from 1200dm3 of hydrogen, measured at room temp and pressure.

Okay so first always write out the equation...N₂(g) + 3H₂(g) ⇌ 2NH₃(g)Now we need to ask ourselves what equations we know are relevant to the question. The question gives ...
