Question

34 gm of a mixture containing N2 and H2 in 1:3 by mole is partially converted into NH3. Calculate the vapour density of the mixture (containing remaining N2,H2 and NH3 formed) after reaction if it has been found that the NH3 formed required 0.5 moles of H3PO4 for complete neutralization.

Solution

N2+3H22NH3
Let mass of N2 be x g
Then mass of H2 will be (34x)g
moles of N2=x28, moles of H2=34x2
as their molar ratio is 1:3
So, x28(34x)2=136x28=34x
6x=34×2828x
34x=34×28
x=28 Mass of N2
34x=3428=6 Mass of H2
Number of moles of N2=2828=1
Number of moles of H2=62=3
N21+3H232NH3
1y 33y 2y
As NH3 required 0.5 moles of H3PO4
So, n×nf(H3PO4)=n×nf(NH3)
(as nf for H3PO4 is 3)
0.5×3=n×1
n=1.5 moles of NH3
Thus 2y=1.5
y=1.52=0.75 moles of NH3
Number of moles remain in solution Mass remain in solution
N210.75=0.25 0.25×28=7g
H233×0.75=0.75 0.75×2=1.5g
NH32×0.75=1.5 1.5×31=46.5g
Vapour density=EffectiveMolarmass(EMM)2
EMM=m1+m2+m3n1+n2+n3=7+1.5+46.50.25+0.75+1.5
EMM=22
Vapour density of mixture= 222=11 .
