Question

100 level student of the adamawa state university mubi was ask to synthesize ammonia (haber process) in the ratio 3:1 of hydrogen to nitrogen.durin the synthesize, 6.00 mole of nitrogen, 4.20 mole of hydrogen and 0.298 mole of ammonia are found to be present at 100 oC in 10 litre glass bulb.show how the value of Kc can be ascertained

Answer 1

The equilibrium constant, Kc, can be determined knowing that the balanced chemical reaction is N2 + 3H2 = 2 NH3. At equilibrium, Kc is equal to (concentration of NH3)^2 / [(concentration of N2) x (concentration of H2)^3]. Using the given values, Kc is computed to be equal to 1.9977 x 10^-4.
