QAIPMT-2003-Ch-2671: NEET 2003 Chemistry - Class 11 AIPMT-2003-Ch-2671 Solution: In Haber process 30 litres of dihydrogen and 30 litres of…
In Haber process 30 litres of dihydrogen and 30 litres of dinitrogen were taken for reaction which yielded only 50% of the expected product. What will be the composition of gaseous mixture under the aforesaid condition in the end?
Multiple Choice Options
- A 20 litres ammonia, 20 litres nitrogen, 20 litres hydrogen
- B 10 litres ammonia, 25 litres nitrogen, 15 litres hydrogen
- C 20 litres ammonia, 10 litres nitrogen, 30 litres hydrogen
- D 20 litres ammonia, 25 litres nitrogen, 15 litres hydrogen
Step-by-Step Verified Solution
Balanced chemical equation for Haber's process
is as follows :
3H 2 + N 2 _ 2NH 3
It is given that only 50% of the expected product
is formed hence only 10 litre of NH 3 is formed.
Therefore, composition of gaseous mixture at the
end is as follows :
N 2 used = 5 litres
N 2 left = 30 L � 5 L = 25 L
H 2 used = 15 litres,
H 2 legt = 30 L � 15 L = 15 L
NH 3 = 10 L
