Answer:
Volume of ammonia produced = 398.7 dm³
Explanation:
Given data:
Volume of N₂ = 200 dm³
Pressure and temperature = standard
Volume of ammonia produced = ?
Solution:
Chemical equation:
N₂ + 3H₂ → 2NH₃
Number of moles of N₂:
PV = nRT
1 atm× 200 L = n× 0.0821 atm.L/mol.K × 273 K
n = 200 atm.L /22.41 atm.L/mol
n = 8.9 mol
Now we will compare the moles of ammonia and nitrogen.
N₂ : NH₃
1 : 2
8.9 : 2/1×8.9 = 17.8 mol
Volume of ammonia:
1 mole of any gas occupy 22.4 dm³ volume
17.8 mol ×22.4 dm³/1 mol = 398.7 dm³
