The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will follow the outlined procedure to calculate \( K_p \) and the pressure at which the mole percent of \( NH_3 \) increases to \( 10.4\% \). ### Step 1: Write the Balanced Chemical Equation The balanced chemical equation for the reaction is: \[ N_2 + 3H_2 \rightleftharpoons 2NH_3 \] ### Step 2: Determine Initial Moles and Change in Moles Initially, we have: - \( n(N_2) = 1 \) mol - \( n(H_2) = 3 \) mol - \( n(NH_3) = 0 \) mol Let \( x \) be the amount of \( N_2 \) that reacts. Then, at equilibrium, the moles will be: - \( n(N_2) = 1 - x \) - \( n(H_2) = 3 - 3x \) - \( n(NH_3) = 2x \) ### Step 3: Calculate Total Moles at Equilibrium The total number of moles at equilibrium is: \[ n_{total} = (1 - x) + (3 - 3x) + 2x = 4 - 2x \] ### Step 4: Use Mole Fraction to Find \( x \) We know the mole fraction of \( NH_3 \) at equilibrium is given as \( 0.012 \): \[ \text{Mole fraction of } NH_3 = \frac{n(NH_3)}{n_{total}} = \frac{2x}{4 - 2x} = 0.012 \] Cross-multiplying gives: \[ 2x = 0.012(4 - 2x) \] \[ 2x = 0.048 - 0.024x \] \[ 2x + 0.024x = 0.048 \] \[ 2.024x = 0.048 \] \[ x = \frac{0.048}{2.024} \approx 0.0237 \] ### Step 5: Calculate \( K_p \) Using the expression for \( K_p \): \[ K_p = \frac{(P_{NH_3})^2}{(P_{N_2})(P_{H_2})^3} \] Where: - \( P_{NH_3} = \frac{2x}{4 - 2x} \times P \) - \( P_{N_2} = \frac{1 - x}{4 - 2x} \times P \) - \( P_{H_2} = \frac{3 - 3x}{4 - 2x} \times P \) Substituting \( P = 10 \) atm: 1. Calculate \( n(NH_3) = 2x = 2 \times 0.0237 \approx 0.0474 \) 2. Calculate \( n(N_2) = 1 - x = 1 - 0.0237 \approx 0.9763 \) 3. Calculate \( n(H_2) = 3 - 3x = 3 - 3 \times 0.0237 \approx 2.9289 \) Now substituting these values into the \( K_p \) expression: \[ K_p = \frac{(0.0474)^2}{(0.9763)(2.9289)^3} \times 10^2 \] Calculating gives: \[ K_p \approx 1.431 \times 10^{-5} \text{ atm}^{-2} \] ### Step 6: Find Pressure for \( 10.4\% \) Mole Fraction of \( NH_3 \) Set the mole fraction of \( NH_3 \) to \( 0.104 \): \[ \frac{2x}{4 - 2x} = 0.104 \] Cross-multiplying gives: \[ 2x = 0.104(4 - 2x) \] \[ 2x = 0.416 - 0.208x \] \[ 2x + 0.208x = 0.416 \] \[ 2.208x = 0.416 \] \[ x = \frac{0.416}{2.208} \approx 0.1884 \] ### Step 7: Substitute \( x \) Back to Find New Pressure Using the same \( K_p \) expression: \[ 1.431 \times 10^{-5} = \frac{4(0.1884)^2(4 - 2(0.1884))^2}{(1 - 0.1884)(3 - 3(0.1884))^3} \times P^2 \] Solving for \( P \) gives: \[ P \approx 105.41 \text{ atm} \] ### Final Answers - \( K_p \approx 1.431 \times 10^{-5} \text{ atm}^{-2} \) - Pressure for \( 10.4\% \) mole fraction of \( NH_3 \) is approximately \( 105.41 \text{ atm} \).

To solve the problem step by step, we will follow the outlined procedure to calculate \( K_p \) and the pressure at which the mole percent of \( NH_3 \) increases to \( 10.4\% \). ### Step 1: Write the Balanced Chemical Equation The balanced chemical equation for the reaction is: \[ N_2 + 3H_2 \rightleftharpoons 2NH_3 \] ### Step 2: Determine Initial Moles and Change in Moles Initially, we have: ...
