Answer:
A) = 4.7 × 10⁻⁴atm
Explanation:
Given that,
Kp = 1.5*10³ at 400°C
partial pressure pN2 = 0.10 atm
partial pressure pH2 = 0.15 atm
To determine:
Partial pressure pNH3 at equilibrium
The decomposition reaction is:-
2NH3(g) ↔N2(g) + 3H2(g)
Kp = [pH2]³[pN2]/[pNH3]²
pNH3 =√ [(pH2)³(pN2)/Kp]
pNH3 = √(0.15)³(0.10)/1.5*10³ = 4.74*10⁻⁴ atm
= 4.7 × 10⁻⁴atm
Explanation:
For the first part,
Reaction equation:
N₂ + 3H₂ → 2NH₃
Given:
Number of moles of NH₃ = 6 moles
Unknown:
Number of moles of N₂ = ?
Solution:
N₂ + 3H₂ → 2NH₃;
From the reaction above, we solve from the known specie to the unknown. Ensure that the equation is balanced;
2 moles of NH₃ is produced from 1 mole of N₂
6 moles of NH₃ will be produced from mole of N₂
= 3moles of N₂
The number of moles of N₂ is 3 moles
ii.
Given parameters:
Number of moles of sulfur = 2.4moles
Molar mass of sulfur = 32.07g/mol
Unknown:
Mass of sulfur = ?
Solution:
The number of moles of any substance can be found using the expression below;
Number of moles =
Mass of sulfur = number of moles of sulfur x molar mass
Insert the parameters and solve;
Mass of sulfur = 2.4 x 32.07 = 76.97g
