when gaseous nitrogen and gaseous hydrogen are reacted at high temperatures in the presence of a catalyst, ammonia (and no other product) is formed. if a chemical plant has to synthesize 350 kg of ammonia, what mass (in kilograms) of hydrogen has will be required, assuming 100% yield? (use molar masses: h2



Answer :

617.647 Kg  hydrogen will be required when gaseous nitrogen and gaseous hydrogen are reacted at high temperatures in the presence of a catalyst, ammonia (and no other product) is formed. if a chemical plant has to synthesize 350 kg of ammonia, is 617.647 Kg by using unitary method to calculate the moles

the mass can be calculate as follow:

first we should calculate the moles of ammonia

The chemical formulas for the reaction of hidrogen and nitrogen are:

[tex]N_2+3H_2 = > 2NH_2[/tex]

We need to calculate the moles of ammonia

n = mass/ molecular weight

n NH3 =350000/17

n NH3 =

then we can calculate the moles of hydrogen

unitary method is used to calculate the moles of hydrogen

[tex]n H_2 = \frac{3}{2} X n NH_3\\n H_2 = \frac{3}{2} X 20588,24 g/mol \\\\n H_2 = 30882.35 g /mol[/tex]

Then we can calculate the mass of hydrogen by multipy the moles with hydrogen molecular weight

[tex]mass H_2 = n XMW\\mass H_2 = 30882.35 g X2g/mol\\\\mass H_2 = 61764.7 g = 617.647 Kg[/tex]

Therefore, 617.647 Kg the hydrogen  will be required to synthesize 350 kg ammonia
