The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to determine the rate of conversion of hydrogen (H₂) based on the given rate of formation of ammonia (NH₃) for the reaction: \[ \text{N}_2(g) + 3\text{H}_2(g) \rightarrow 2\text{NH}_3(g) \] ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Stoichiometry of the Reaction:** The balanced chemical equation shows that: - 1 mole of N₂ reacts with 3 moles of H₂ to produce 2 moles of NH₃. - This gives us the stoichiometric ratios: - For every 2 moles of NH₃ produced, 3 moles of H₂ are consumed. 2. **Write the Rate Expressions:** The rate of the reaction can be expressed in terms of the change in concentration (or mass) of the reactants and products: \[ -\frac{1}{3} \frac{d[\text{H}_2]}{dt} = \frac{1}{2} \frac{d[\text{NH}_3]}{dt} \] Here, the negative sign indicates the consumption of H₂, while the positive sign indicates the formation of NH₃. 3. **Convert the Rate of Formation of NH₃ to Moles:** We are given the rate of formation of NH₃ as 0.001 kg/h. To convert this to moles, we use the molar mass of NH₃: - Molar mass of NH₃ = 14 (N) + 3 × 1 (H) = 17 g/mol = 0.017 kg/mol. \[ \text{Rate of formation of NH}_3 = \frac{0.001 \text{ kg/h}}{0.017 \text{ kg/mol}} \approx 0.05882 \text{ mol/h} \] 4. **Calculate the Rate of Consumption of H₂:** Using the stoichiometric ratio from the balanced equation: \[ -\frac{1}{3} \frac{d[\text{H}_2]}{dt} = \frac{1}{2} \frac{d[\text{NH}_3]}{dt} \] Rearranging gives: \[ \frac{d[\text{H}_2]}{dt} = -\frac{3}{2} \frac{d[\text{NH}_3]}{dt} \] Substituting the rate of formation of NH₃: \[ \frac{d[\text{H}_2]}{dt} = -\frac{3}{2} \times 0.05882 \text{ mol/h} \approx -0.08823 \text{ mol/h} \] 5. **Convert the Rate of Consumption of H₂ to kg/h:** Now, we convert the rate of consumption of H₂ back to kg/h using its molar mass: - Molar mass of H₂ = 2 g/mol = 0.002 kg/mol. \[ \text{Rate of consumption of H}_2 = 0.08823 \text{ mol/h} \times 0.002 \text{ kg/mol} \approx 0.00017646 \text{ kg/h} \] 6. **Final Answer:** The same rate of conversion of hydrogen under the same conditions is approximately: \[ \text{Rate of conversion of H}_2 \approx 0.00017646 \text{ kg/h} \] ### Summary: The rate of conversion of hydrogen (H₂) is approximately 0.00017646 kg/h.
