N2 with pressure 10 atm and H2 with pressure 30 atm, both with volume 10 liter at 27^oC are passed into a reactor, how many moles NH3 is produced?(a) 4(b) 8(c) 12(d) 16I had been asked this question during an interview for a job.The query is from Material Balances Involving Ideal Gases topic in division Recycle, Bypass, Purge, Ideal Gases and Real Gases of Basic Chemical Engineering

Answer»

Correct choice is (b) 8

For explanation: The reaction is N2 + 3H2 -> 2NH3, MOLES of N2 = 10*10/(0.0821*300) = 4, moles of H2 = 30*10/(0.0821*300) = 12, => extent of reaction = (0 – 4)/(-1) = 4, => moles of NH3 = 4*2 = 8.
