Which type of congressional committee does the passage most likely describe

Social Studies
1 answer:
xenn [34]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The right answer is option C

Explanation:

this is because in the United States congress , standing committees are permanent legislative panels established by the United States house of representatives and United States Senate rules(House rule X , Senate rule XXV).Because they have legislative jurisdiction,standing committees consider bills and issues and recommend measures for consideration by their respective chambers. They also have oversight responsibility to monitor agencies, programs and activities within their jurisdictions , and in some cases in areas that cut across committee jurisdiction. Due to their permanent nature , these committees exist beyond the adjournment of each two-year meeting of Congress

Nitrogen and hydrogen gases are related in a 1:3 mole ratio at 700 K. Calculate the total
In-s [12.5K]

A brief summary of the Haber Process

The Haber Process combines nitrogen from the air with hydrogen derived mainly from natural gas (methane) into ammonia. The reaction is reversible and the production of ammonia is exothermic.

A flow scheme for the Haber Process looks like this:

Some notes on the conditions

The catalyst

The catalyst is actually slightly more complicated than pure iron. It has potassium hydroxide added to it as a promoter - a substance that increases its efficiency.

The pressure

The pressure varies from one manufacturing plant to another, but is always high. You can't go far wrong in an exam quoting 200 atmospheres.

Recycling

At each pass of the gases through the reactor, only about 15% of the nitrogen and hydrogen converts to ammonia. (This figure also varies from plant to plant.) By continual recycling of the unreacted nitrogen and hydrogen, the overall conversion is about 98%.

Explaining the conditions

The proportions of nitrogen and hydrogen

The mixture of nitrogen and hydrogen going into the reactor is in the ratio of 1 volume of nitrogen to 3 volumes of hydrogen.

Avogadro's Law says that equal volumes of gases at the same temperature and pressure contain equal numbers of molecules. That means that the gases are going into the reactor in the ratio of 1 molecule of nitrogen to 3 of hydrogen.

That is the proportion demanded by the equation.

In some reactions you might choose to use an excess of one of the reactants. You would do this if it is particularly important to use up as much as possible of the other reactant - if, for example, it was much more expensive. That doesn't apply in this case.

There is always a down-side to using anything other than the equation proportions. If you have an excess of one reactant there will be molecules passing through the reactor which can't possibly react because there isn't anything for them to react with. This wastes reactor space - particularly space on the surface of the catalyst.

The temperature

Equilibrium considerations

You need to shift the position of the equilibrium as far as possible to the right in order to produce the maximum possible amount of ammonia in the equilibrium mixture.

The forward reaction (the production of ammonia) is exothermic.

According to Le Chatelier's Principle, this will be favoured if you lower the temperature. The system will respond by moving the position of equilibrium to counteract this - in other words by producing more heat.

In order to get as much ammonia as possible in the equilibrium mixture, you need as low a temperature as possible. However, 400 - 450°C isn't a low temperature!

Rate considerations

The lower the temperature you use, the slower the reaction becomes. A manufacturer is trying to produce as much ammonia as possible per day. It makes no sense to try to achieve an equilibrium mixture which contains a very high proportion of ammonia if it takes several years for the reaction to reach that equilibrium.

You need the gases to reach equilibrium within the very short time that they will be in contact with the catalyst in the reactor.

The compromise

400 - 450°C is a compromise temperature producing a reasonably high proportion of ammonia in the equilibrium mixture (even if it is only 15%), but in a very short time.

The pressure

Equilibrium considerations

Notice that there are 4 molecules on the left-hand side of the equation, but only 2 on the right.

According to Le Chatelier's Principle, if you increase the pressure the system will respond by favouring the reaction which produces fewer molecules. That will cause the pressure to fall again.

In order to get as much ammonia as possible in the equilibrium mixture, you need as high a pressure as possible. 200 atmospheres is a high pressure, but not amazingly high.

Rate considerations

Increasing the pressure brings the molecules closer together. In this particular instance, it will increase their chances of hitting and sticking to the surface of the catalyst where they can react. The higher the pressure the better in terms of the rate of a gas reaction.

Economic considerations

Very high pressures are very expensive to produce on two counts.

You have to build extremely strong pipes and containment vessels to withstand the very high pressure. That increases your capital costs when the plant is built.

High pressures cost a lot to produce and maintain. That means that the running costs of your plant are very high.

The compromise

200 atmospheres is a compromise pressure chosen on economic grounds. If the pressure used is too high, the cost of generating it exceeds the price you can get for the extra ammonia produced.

A command economy is when government central planners own or control the means of production, and determine the distribution of output.

Command economies suffer from problems with poor incentives for planners, managers, and workers in state-owned enterprises.

Central planners in a command economy are unable to rationally determine the methods, quantities, proportions, location, and timing of economic activity across an economy without private property or the operation of supply and demand.
