The Haber process is the principal method for fixing nitrogen (converting $\mathrm{N}_{2}$ to nitrogen compounds). $$\mathrm{N}_{2}(\mathrm{g})+3 \mathrm{H}_{2}(\mathrm{g}) \longrightarrow 2 \mathrm{NH}_{3}(\mathrm{g})$$ Assume that the reactant gases are completely converted to $\mathrm{NH}_{3}(\mathrm{g})$ and that the gases behave ideally. (a) What volume of $\mathrm{NH}_{3}(\mathrm{g})$ can be produced from $152 \mathrm{L} \mathrm{N}_{2}(\mathrm{g})$ and $313 \mathrm{L}$ of $\mathrm{H}_{2}(\mathrm{g})$ if the gases are mea- sured at $315^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ and 5.25 atm? (b) What volume of $\mathrm{NH}_{3}(\mathrm{g}),$ measured at $25^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ and $727 \mathrm{mm} \mathrm{Hg},$ can be produced from $152 \mathrm{L} \mathrm{N}_{2}(\mathrm{g})$ and $313 \mathrm{L} \mathrm{H}_{2}(\mathrm{g}),$ measured at $315^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ and $5.25 \mathrm{atm} ?$

Key Concepts

Gas Law Conversions

Gas law conversions involve translating measurements of gases from one set of conditions to another by using relationships derived from the ideal gas law. This includes converting between different units of pressure, temperature, and volume, which is essential when comparing measurements made under non-standard conditions.

Ideal Gas Law

The ideal gas law, expressed as PV = nRT, relates the pressure (P), volume (V), number of moles (n), gas constant (R), and temperature (T) of a gas. This fundamental equation is used to predict and calculate changes in a gas's state under different conditions, such as varying temperature and pressure, when the gas behaves ideally.

Reaction Stoichiometry

Reaction stoichiometry involves understanding and using the balanced chemical equation to determine the quantitative relationships between reactants and products. It enables the calculation of amounts, such as moles or volumes, of substances involved in a reaction, ensuring that the proportions given by the chemical equation are maintained when predicting yields.

Limiting Reagent

The limiting reagent is the reactant that is completely consumed first in a chemical reaction, thereby determining the maximum amount of product that can be formed. Identifying the limiting reagent is crucial, as it helps in calculating the theoretical yield of the reaction and understanding the efficiency of the process.
