Answer:

The reaction is spontaneous.

Explanation:

A positive overall cell potential indicates that reaction will be spontaneous. There is a connection between the Gibbs free energy change (ΔG) and the overall potential:

ΔG = -nFE

where: n - the number of changed electrons, F - Faraday constant, E - the overall potential.
In order for a process to be spontaneous, the Gibbs free energy change has to be negative, and the above relation indicated that the overall potential has to be positive (since the number of electrons and Faraday constant have positive value).

How many grams of h2 are needed to produce 10.78 g of nh3?
balu736 [363]
Ammonia is formed by a reaction between hydrogen and nitrogen as shown by the equation below.
N2(g) + 3H2(g) = 2NH3(g)
1 mole of ammonia contains 17 g
Therefore 10.78 g of ammonia are equivalent to 10.78/17 = 0.6341 moles
The mole ratio of hydrogen to ammonia is 3 : 2
Therefore, moles of hydrogen used will be  0.6341 × 3/2 = 0.9512 moles
1 mole of hydrogen is equivalent to 2 g
Thus, the mas of hydrogen will be 0.9512 moles × 2 = 1.9023 g
