General Chemistry 3 - Midterm 2

Ammonia can be produced by the following reaction:

N2 (g) + 3 H2 (g) → 2 NH3 (g)


1) Calculate the value for ΔH0 for this reaction

2) Can the yield of ammonia be increased by raising the temperature? Justify

3) What is the equilibrium constant for the reaction?

4) If 235 mL of H2 gas (25°C and 7.60 x 104 Pa) were completely converted to ammonia and the ammonia were dissolved in water to make 0.500 L of solution, what would be the molarity of the resulting solution?
