In the haber reaction, patented by german chemist fritz haber in 1908, dinitrogen gas combines with dihydrogen gas to produce gaseous ammonia. this reaction is now the first step taken to make most of the world's fertilizer.

suppose a chemical engineer studying a new catalyst for the haber reaction finds that 505 liters per second of dinitrogen are consumed when the reaction is run at 172 oc and 0.88 atm. calculate the rate at which ammonia is being produced. give your answer in kilograms per second. be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.

The rate at which ammonia is being produced is 0.41 kg/sec.

Explanation:

Haber reaction

Volume of dinitrogen consumed in a second = 505 L

Temperature at which reaction is carried out,T= 172°C = 445.15 K

Pressure at which reaction is carried out, P = 0.88 atm

Let the moles of dinitrogen be n.

Using an Ideal gas equation:

According to reaction , 1 mol of ditnitrogen gas produces 2 moles of ammonia.

Then 12.1597 mol of dinitrogen will produce :

of ammonia

Mass of 24.3194 moles of ammonia =24.3194 mol × 17 g/mol

=413.43 g=0.41343 kg ≈ 0.41 kg

505 L of dinitrogen are consumed in 1 second to produce 0.41 kg of ammonia in 1 second. So the rate at which ammonia is being produced is 0.41 kg/sec.

warm front forms when a moist, warm air mass slides up and over a cold air mass. as the warm air mass rises, it condenses into a broad area of clouds. a warm front brings gentle rain or light snow, followed by warmer, milder weather.
