How would #"barium nitride"# react with water?

Answer 1

Henry Antrim

Well we got barium nitride.....#Ba_3N_2#

....and this would be a hard salt to isolate; its reaction with water would proceed as follows......

#Ba_3N_2(s) + 6H_2O(l) rarr 3Ba(OH)_2(aq) + 2NH_3(aq) #

Note that the nitride anion binds as #N^(3-)#, and we could represent its net ionic equation as.....

#N^(3-) + 3H_2O(l) rarr NH_3(aq) + 3HO^-#

Barium nitride (Ba3N2) reacts with water (H2O) to produce barium hydroxide (Ba(OH)2) and ammonia gas (NH3) according to the following chemical equation:

Ba3N2 + 6H2O → 3Ba(OH)2 + 2NH3

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
