The reaction for the Haber process, the industrial production of ammonia, is
N2(g) + 3H2(g) → 2NH3(g)
Assume that under certain laboratory conditions ammonia is produced at the rate of 6.29 mol L-1 s-1. At what rate is hydrogen consumed?
For the reaction: 2N205(g) -->4NO(g) + O2(g)
(a) write the mathematical rate expression in terms of
(i) the disappearance of N2O5 (Reactant);
(ii) the formation of NO (Product);
(iii) the formation of O2 (Product).
(b) What are the stoichiometric relationships (rationalization) of the various rates for this reaction? (e.g. Product C
formation is 2x faster than Reactant A disappearance/decomposition.)
The addition of NO accelerates the decomposition ofN2O, possibly by the following mechanism:NO(g) + N2O(g)--->N2(g) + NO2(g)2 NO2(g)--->2 NO(g) + O2(g)(a) What is the chemical equation for the overall reaction?Show how the two steps can be added to give theoverall equation. (b) Is NO serving as a catalyst or an intermediatein this reaction? (c) If experiments show thatduring the decomposition of N2O, NO2 does not accumulatein measurable quantities, does this rule out the proposedmechanism?
