Question

The habor process is the production of ammonia from gaseous nitrogen and hydrongen. how many grams of nitrogen gas are required to produce 10.00g of ammonia, assuming a 75% yield and excess hydrogen gas?

Expert Solution
Step 1

In the Habor process 

N2 (g) + 3H2 (g) ------> 2 NH3 (g) 

Given that 

Percent Yield = 75% 

Actual Yield of NH3 =10.0 g 

So firat we will calculate theoretical yield 

Then according to balanced equation we will calculate the mass of N2 required
