Question 2

To find the volume that 7.5 g of ethane will occupy at the same conditions:

1. Calculate the molar mass of ethane (C₂H₆): (2 * 12) + (6 * 1) = 24 + 6 = 30 g/mol.
2. 7.0 g of ethane corresponds to 7.0 / 30 = 0.233 mol.
3. At STP, 1 mol of gas occupies 22.4 dm³. Hence, 0.233 mol occupies 0.233 * 22.4 = 5.6 dm³.
4. Using the same steps, 7.5 g of ethane corresponds to 7.5 / 30 = 0.25 mol.

\[
27.0 \, \text{cm}^3 \times 0.100 \, \text{mol/dm}^3 = 2.7 \times 10^{-3} \, \text{mol}
\]

Using the fact that 1 mole of HCl reacts with 1 mole of NH$_3$:
\[
\text{Moles of N in the compound} = 2.7 \times 10^{-3}
\]

\[
\text{Mass of N} = 2.7 \times 10^{-3} \, \text{mol} \times 14 \, \text{g/mol} = 0.0378 \, \text{g}
\]

\[
\text{Percentage of N} = \frac{0.0378 \, \text{g}}{0.250 \, \text{g}} \times 100 \approx 15.1\%
