Question

The value of ΔfHo for NH3 is - 45.9, kj mol1. Calculate enthalpy change for the reaction :
2NH3(g)N2(g)+3H2(g)

Open in App
Solution

For the reverse reaction, H changes sign as the reverse of exothermic reaction will be endothermic. So,
H=(45.9)=45.9 kj mol1
But 2 moles of NH3 is present. So,
H=2×45.9=91.8 kj/mol
