Explanation / Answer

You just need to rearrange the equations, you need to let the reactants on the left and products on the right

from my perspective the first step should be tu reverse the third equation

2 NH3 ====== N2 + 3H2

let´s write the equations

HCl ===== 1/2 H2 + 1/2 Cl2

4H2 + N2 + Cl2 ======= 2 NH4Cl

2 NH3 ====== N2 + 3H2

The reactanst and the products are where we want them but if we summarize all the hydrogens and chlorides they are not balanced also we have 2 NH3, 2 NH4Cl and 1 HCl, the best thing to do is to multiply by 2 equation 1

HCl ===== 1/2 H2 + 1/2 Cl2 * 2

2HCl ===== H2 + Cl2; let´s summarize the equations:

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

2 HCl ===== H2 + Cl2

4H2 + N2 + Cl2 ======= 2 NH4Cl

2 NH3 ====== N2 + 3H2

___________________________________

2 HCl + 2 NH3 ======= 2NH4Cl

the values must be changed, for the first equation we take the enthalpy and multiply it by 2

-92.5 * 2 = -185

the third enthalpy with a value of -92.2 turns positive to 92.2,this is because we reversed the equation

total enthalpy is = -185 + 92.2 + (-628) = -720.8 KJ, but this is the enthalpy for a reaction of

2 HCl + 2 NH3 ======= 2NH4Cl, we need to divide the enthalpy by 2 in order to get the value from the equation we want.

-720.8 / 2 = -360.4 KJ
