Problem 10P
Does Q for the formation of 1 mol of NH3 from H2 and N2 differ from Q for the formation of NH3 from H2 and 1 mol of N2? Explain and give the relationship between the two Q’s.
ANSWER:
Solution 10P:
Here, we are going to find out the relationship between the two Q’s.
Step 1:
At a given temperature,a chemical system reaches a state in which a particular ratio of reactant and product concentrations has a constant value. The ratio of the concentration in terms of reactant and product is known as reaction quotient (Q)
aA+ bB cC + dD
The formation of 1 mol of NH3 from its elements is given below:
½ N2(g) + 3/2 H2(g) ⇌ NH3(g)
---(1)
Similarly,
The formation of NH3 from H2 and 1 mol of N2
N2(g) + 3H2(g) ⇌ 2NH3(g)
---(2)
