The formation of ammonia is represented by the equation N2(g) + 3H2(g) ⇌ 2NH3(g). Determine the enthalpy of formation of ammonia given the following mean bond enthalpies (kJmol-1): N≡N 942; H-H 436; N-H 386

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the study of the bond energy allows us to compute the enthalpies of some reactions, for this combination reaction by which ammonia is yielded, we understand the enthalpy of reaction equals the enthalpy of formation of ammonia, and, in terms of the bonds energy we can write:

Whereas the bonds enthalpy of those bonds that get broken cover the N≡N and the three H-H bonds at the reactants side and the enthalpy of those bonds that are formed cover the six N-H bonds at the products; which means we obtain:

Which differs from the theoretical value that is -46 kJ/mol.

Best regards!

1. for the first question, we must find the mass of the anhydrous salt, mgso₄. the molar mass for mgso₄·7h₂o is 246.47 g/mol, while that of mgso₄ is 120.37 g/mol.7.834 g mgso₄·7h₂o * 1 mol mgso₄·7h₂o/246.47 g * 1 mol mgso₄/1 mol mgso₄·7h₂o * 20.37 g mgso₄/mol = 0.647 g mgso₄

2. mass of water = mass of sample - mass of anhydrous salemass of water = 7.834 - 0.647 = 7.19 gpercent water in hydrate = 7.19/7.834 * 100 = 91.74%

its first and third is your answer i did the qustion the fourth isnt right
