JEE Main 2022 · 29 July · Morning Shift · Chemistry · Some Basic Concepts of Chemistry

N _ 2(g) + 3 H _ 2(g) ⇌ 2 NH _ 3(g) 20g5g Consider the above...

N2(g)+3H2(g)⇌2NH3(g)20g5g{N}_{2\left(g\right)} + 3{H}_{2\left(g\right)} ⇌ 2{NH}_{3\left(g\right)}20g5g

Consider the above reaction. If 2020g of dinitrogen reacts with 55g of dihydrogen, then the limiting reagent of the reaction and number of moles of NH3{NH}_{3} formed respectively are

Options

  1. AH2,1.42{H}_{2}, 1 . 42 moles
  2. BH2,0.71{H}_{2}, 0 . 71 moles
  3. CN2,1.42{N}_{2}, 1 . 42 moles
  4. DN2,0.71{N}_{2}, 0 . 71 moles

Correct answer

C. N2,1.42{N}_{2}, 1 . 42 moles

Step-by-step solution

N2(g)+3H2(g)⇌2NH3(g)20g5gGivenmass202852Numberofmoles{N}_{2\left(g\right)} + 3{H}_{2\left(g\right)} ⇌ 2{NH}_{3\left(g\right)}20g5gGivenmass\dfrac{20}{28}\dfrac{5}{2}Numberofmoles

To find the limiting reagent we can divide given number of moles with Stoichiometric coefficients, whichever will be the lower will be limiting reagent.

N2→20281=2028H2→523=56{N}_{2} \to \dfrac{\dfrac{20}{28}}{1} = \dfrac{20}{28}{H}_{2} \to \dfrac{\dfrac{5}{2}}{3} = \dfrac{5}{6}

∴N2∴ {N}_{2} is the Limiting Reagent.

According to the reaction one mole of nitrogen gas gives two moles of ammonia.

∴n(NH3)=2×n(N2)=2×2028∴ n\left({NH}_{3}\right) = 2 \times n\left({N}_{2}\right) = 2 \times \dfrac{20}{28}

Number of moles of ammonia formed will be =1.42= 1 . 42
