What volume of hydrogen will be produced if 100cm3 of ammonia is completely decomposed at constant temperature and pressure? The equation for reaction is 2NH3(g) → N2(g) + 3H2(g)
50cm3
150cm3
200cm3
300cm3

Explanation

According to the equation 2NH3 → N3 + 3H2
2 x 22400cm3 of ammonia will produce
3 x 22400cm3 of hydrogen
If 100cm3 of NH3 is used.
:. H2 volume = \(\frac{100}{2x22400} x 3x22400
=150cm3
