Questions Related to ammonia

Ammonia gas can be collected by the displacement of:

  1. Conc. $H _2SO _4$

  2. Brine

  3. Water

  4. Mercury


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Ammonia is less dense than air hence can be collected by upward displacement of air and mercury.

In Haber's process $50.0\ g$ of $N _{2}(g)$ and $10.0\ g$ of $H _{2}(g)$ are mixed to produced $NH _{3}(g)$. What are the number of moles of $NH _{3}(g)$ formed?

  1. $3.33$

  2. $2.36$

  3. $2.01$

  4. $5.36$


Correct Option: A
Explanation:
$N _2 + 3H _2 \rightarrow2NH3$
Here.
28 g $N _2$ reacts with 6 g of $H _2$
So,
50 g of $N _2$ react with $\dfrac{6}{28}\times50 g -H _2 = 10.7 g$ but we have only 10g so $H _2$ is limiting reagent..

6 g $H _2$ gives 34g $NH _3$
10g $H _2$ will give $\dfrac{34}{6}\times10=56.67g -NH _3$
So number of moles of $NH _3$ formed is,
$=\dfrac{Given-mass}{Molar-mass}=\dfrac{56.67}{17}=3.33-moles$
