Under laboratory conditions of 25.0 degrees C and 99.5 kPa, what is the maximum number of cubic decimeters of ammonia that could be produced from 1.50 dm3 of nitrogen according to the following equation: N2 (g) + 3H2 (g) ---> 2NH3 (g) a. 3.22 dm3 b. 3.00 dm3 c. 2.70 dm3 d. 3.33 dm3 |

Here again!! n = P.V / R.T For the Nitrogen we have: P = 99.5 kPa = 0.982 atm (1 kilopascal = 0.0098692 atm) T = (25+273)K = 298K V = 1.5dm3 = 1.5 L R = 0.082058 atm/(mol * K) n = (0.9819886*1.5)/(0.082058*298) = 0.06024 mol Each mol of N2 produces 2 moles of NH3, then we will have (2*0.06024)= 0.12048 moles of NH3. At the laboratory conditions: P = 0.982 atm T = 298K The volume of the NH3 will be: V = (n.R.T)/P = ((0.12048*0.082058*298)/0.982) L = 3 L = 3 dm3 The correct answer is b. Note: This problem confirm the following reasoning: At the same condition of pressure and temperature one mol of different gases will take up the same volume. We have an unknown amount of n moles of N2 that takes up 1.5 L, this n moles will produce 2n moles of NH3, which will be at the same conditions; this means that this 2n moles of NH3 will take up 2*1.5 L = 3 L. Hope this helps. Regards. livioflores-ga |
