The purification of hydrogen gas by diffusion through a palladium sheet was discussed in Section 5.3. Compute the number of kilo

grams of hydrogen that pass per hour through a 6-mm thick sheet of palladium having an area of 0.25 m2at 600°C. Assume a diffusion coefficient of 1.7 × 10–8m2/s, that the respective concentrations at the high- and low-pressure sides of the plate are 2.0 and 0.4 kg of hydrogen per cubic meter of palladium, and that steady-state conditions have been attained.

Answer:

NA = 6.8 E-12 Kg H2(g) / hour

Explanation:

steady-state diffusion of A through non-diffuser B:

  • NA = (DAB/RTz)(p*A1 - p*A2)

∴ (A): H2(g)    

∴ (B): Pd

∴ DAB = 1.7 E-8 m²/s

∴ p*A1 = 2.0 Kg H2 / m³ Pd

∴ p*A2 = 0.4 Kg H2 / m³ Pd

∴ z = 6 mm = 6 E-3 m

∴ T = 600°C ≅ 873 K

∴ R = 8.314 J/mol.K = 8.314 N.m/mol.K

⇒ NA = ((1.7 E-8)/(8.314)(873)(6 E-3))(2.0 - 0.4)

⇒ NA = 6.246 E-10 mol/s.m³

for A = 0.25 m²

⇒ volume (v) = A×z = (0.25)(6 E-3) = 1.5 E-3 m³

∴ Mw H2(g) = 2.016 g/mol

⇒ NA = (6.246 E-10 mol/s.m³)(1.5 E-3 m³)(2.016 g/mol)(Kg/1000 g)(3600 s/h)

⇒ NA = 6.8 E-12 Kg H2(g)/h

A yield of NH3 of approximately 98% can be obtained at 200°C and 1,000 atmospheres of pressure.
daser333 [38]

Answer:

1.429 g of  N₂

Explanation:

The Haber process is a reaction that combines nitrogen with hydrogen to form ammonia according to the following balanced equation:

  • N₂ ₍g₎ + 3 H₂ ₍g₎ ⇆  2NH₃ ₍g₎  

One can note that 1 mol of N₂ react with H₂ to produce 2 mol of NH₃.

We cannot compare weight of a substance (in grams) to another in chemical reactions, but we can use moles, then we have to convert the weight of NH3 to moles.

no. of moles of NH₃ = (mass / molar mass) = (1.7 g / 17 g/mol) = 0.1 mol

and the actual yield is 98% , then the theoretical number of moles that would be produced are:  

  • percent yield = (actual yield / theoretical yield) × 100

98 = (0.1 mol /  theoretical yield) × 100

theoretical no. of moles of NH₃ = (0.1 * 100) /98 = 0.102 mol

using cross multiplication

1 mol of N₂ → 2 mol of NH₃.

?? mol of N₂ → 0.102 mol of NH₃.

no of moles of N₂ = [(1 mol * 0.102 mol) / 2 mol] = 0.051 mol

Last step is to convert the moles back to grams using:

mass = (no of moles of N₂  * molar mass of N₂)

         = (0.051 mol * 28 g/mol) = 1.429 g

Why are the optimum conditions for the Haber process a temperature of 450°C and pressure of 200 atmospheres?
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

See explanation.

Explanation:

Hello,

Haber process is defined as the widely acknowledged productive process of ammonia by the reaction:

N_2(g)+3H_2(g)\rightleftharpoons 2NH_3(g)

Which is carried out in gaseous phase. Thus, by means of the Le Chatelier's principle, it is possible to know that its standard enthalpy of reaction is -45.90 kJ/mol (NIST webbook) for which it is an exothermic chemical reaction, for that reason less ammonia will be produced at high temperature, nonetheless, the temperature should not be too low since the reaction rate significantly decrease, therefore, the optimum found temperature is 450 °C.

Moreover, since there are more moles (3+1=4) at the reactants and less moles at the products (2), increasing the pressure of the reaction increases the yield of ammonia, nonetheless, higher pressures involve the purchasing of more expensive equipment to withstand the high-pressures, for that reason, the best found pressure has been set as 200 atm.

Best regards.
