Explanation / Answer

4NH3 (g) + 5O2 (g) --------------> 4NO (g) + 6H2O (g) -----------1

N2 (g) + O2 (g) ------à 2NO (g)    ?H = 180.6 KJ ---------------2

N2 (g) + 3H2 (g) ------à 2NH3 (g)    ?H = -91.8 KJ -------------3

6H2 (g) + 3O2 (g) +------à 6H2O (g)    ?H = -967.4 KJ ------ -4

We have to multiply with factors and rearrange the three equations 2,3 and 4, in such a way that we get the overall reaction 1. And each time a reaction 2,3 and 4 is factored, the ?H of that reaction will be factored as well.

There are 4 moles of NO in parent eqyuation1 and only 2 moles of NO in equation 2, so one would multiply equation 2 with a factor 2.

N2 (g) + O2 (g) ------à 2NO (g)    ?H = 180.6 KJ ---------------2

2x (N2 (g) + O2 (g) ------à 2NO (g) )   ?H = 2 x180.6 KJ

2N2 (g) + 2O2 (g) ------à 4NO (g)    ?H = 361.2 KJ ---------------5

We have ammonia in equation 3, but only 2 moles are produced of NH3 are produced. But in the question, there are 4 moles, so one would multiply equation 3 by factor 2 and since NH3 is on the reactants on the overall equation, we would reverse the equation.

2 x (N2 (g) + 3H2 (g) ------> 2 x 2NH3 (g) =====)    ?H = 2* -91.8 KJ

2 N2 (g) + 6H2 (g) ------> 4 NH3 (g) =====)    ?H = -183.6 KJ

Reversing the reaction, ?H of the reaction also reverses in its sign

4 NH3 (g) =====> 2 N2 (g) + 6H2 (g) ?H = +183.6 KJ ------   6

Now we put together the three equations 5,6 and 3 and cancel out common terms

2N2 (g) + 2O2 (g) ------> 4NO (g)    ?H = 361.2 KJ ---------------5

4 NH3 (g) =====> 2 N2 (g) + 6H2 (g) ?H = +183.6 KJ ------   6

6H2 (g) + 3O2 (g) +------> 6H2O (g)    ?H = -967.4 KJ ------ -4

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

4NH3 (g) + 5O2 (g) --------------> 4NO (g) + 6H2O (g) ?H = 361.2 + 183.6 – 967.4 = -422.6 KJ
