Answer:
2.75 mol
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of Nitrogen = 38.5 g
Moles of ammonia produced = ?
Solution:
Chemical equation:
N₂ + 3H₂ → 2NH₃
Number of moles of nitrogen:
Number of moles = mass/ molar mass
Number of moles = 38.5 g/ 28 g/mol
Number of moles = 1.375 mol
Now we will compare the moles of ammonia and nitrogen from balance chemical equation.
N₂ : NH₃
1 : 2
1.375 : 2×1.375 = 2.75 mol
Thus 2.75 moles of ammonia are produced from 38.5 g of nitrogen.
Answer:
The ΔHrxn for the above equation = 179 kJ/mol
Explanation:
The reaction bond enthalpies are for the reactant;
3 × N-H = 3 × 390 = 1,170 kJ/mol
2 × O=O = 2 × 502 = 1004 kJ/mol
The reaction bond enthalpies are for the product;
3 × N-O = 3 × 201 = 603 kJ/mol
3 × O-H = 3 × 464 = 1,392 kJ/mol
The ΔHrxn for the above equation is therefore;
ΔHrxn = 1,170 + 1,004 - (603 + 1,392) = 179 kJ/mol
