The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the Haber process and the stoichiometry involved in the reaction between dihydrogen (H₂) and dinitrogen (N₂) to form ammonia (NH₃). The balanced equation for the Haber process is: \[ N_2(g) + 3H_2(g) \rightleftharpoons 2NH_3(g) \] ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify Initial Volumes**: - We have 30 liters of dihydrogen (H₂) and 30 liters of dinitrogen (N₂). 2. **Determine the Stoichiometric Ratios**: - According to the balanced equation, 1 volume of N₂ reacts with 3 volumes of H₂ to produce 2 volumes of NH₃. - Therefore, for 30 liters of N₂, we would need \( 3 \times 30 = 90 \) liters of H₂ to fully react. 3. **Identify the Limiting Reagent**: - Since we only have 30 liters of H₂, H₂ is the limiting reagent. - The maximum amount of NH₃ that can be produced from 30 liters of H₂ is calculated as follows: - From the stoichiometry, 3 liters of H₂ produce 2 liters of NH₃. - Thus, \( 30 \text{ liters H₂} \) will produce \( \frac{2}{3} \times 30 = 20 \) liters of NH₃. 4. **Calculate the Expected Yield**: - We are told that the yield is only 50% of the expected product. - Therefore, the actual yield of NH₃ is \( 50\% \times 20 \text{ liters} = 10 \text{ liters} \). 5. **Calculate Remaining Volumes**: - Let \( X \) be the volume of N₂ that reacted. From the stoichiometry, \( 3X \) liters of H₂ will also react. - Since we produced 10 liters of NH₃, we can set up the equation: \[ 2X = 10 \] \[ X = 5 \text{ liters of N₂ reacted} \] 6. **Calculate Remaining Gases**: - Remaining N₂: \( 30 - X = 30 - 5 = 25 \text{ liters} \) - Remaining H₂: \( 30 - 3X = 30 - 15 = 15 \text{ liters} \) 7. **Final Composition of the Gaseous Mixture**: - Ammonia (NH₃): 10 liters - Dinitrogen (N₂): 25 liters - Dihydrogen (H₂): 15 liters ### Final Answer: The composition of the gaseous mixture at the end is: - 10 liters of NH₃ - 25 liters of N₂ - 15 liters of H₂
