Question

Consider the reaction: n2(g) 3h2(g) → 2nh3(g) suppose that a particular moment during the reaction, molecular hydrogen is reacting at a rate of 0.0687 m/s. at what rate is molecular nitrogen reacting

Answer 1

Answer:

0.229 M/s is molecular nitrogen reacting

Explanation:

$N_2(g)+3H_2(g)\rightarrow NH_3(g)$

Rate of the reaction :

$R=-\frac{1}{1}\frac{d[N_2]}{dt}=-\frac{1}{3}\frac{d[H_2]}{dt}=\frac{1}{2}\frac{d[NH_3]}{dt}$

Rate at which hydrogen gas is reaction :

$\frac{d[H_2]}{dt}=0.0687 M/s$

Rate at which hydrogen gas is reaction :

$\frac{d[N_2]}{dt}=?$

$-\frac{1}{1}\frac{d[N_2]}{dt}=-\frac{1}{3}\frac{d[H_2]}{dt}$

$\frac{d[N_2]}{dt}=\frac{1}{3}\times 0.0687 M/s$

$=0.229 M/s$

0.229 M/s is molecular nitrogen reacting
