Best Answer

When the gases leave the reactor they are hot and at a very high pressure. Ammonia is easily liquefied under pressure as long as it isn't too hot, and so the temperature of the mixture is lowered enough for the ammonia to turn to a liquid. The nitrogen and hydrogen remain as gases even under these high pressures, and can be recycled.

Another way is to add the water to the mixture (or pass the mixture from cold water) Ammonia is highly soluble in water but other two gases are not.

What mass of nitrogen and hydrogen needed to produce 91.3 Kg of ammonia?

Ammonia-NH3 2N+3H2=2NH3 2moles of Nitrogen produced 2moles of Ammonia (2*14)g of Nitrogen produced (2*17)g of Ammonia 28g of Nitrogen produced 34g of Ammonia 34g of Ammonia is produced by 28g of Nitrogen 0.034kg of Ammonia is produced by 0.028kg of Nitrogen 91.3kg of Ammonia will be produced by 0.028*91.3/0.034 91.3kg of Ammonia will be produced by 75.19kg of Nitrogen FOR HYDROGEN: 3moles of H2 produces 2moles of NH3 (2*3)g H2 produces 2*17g NH3 6g hydrogen produces 34g ammonia 0.006kg hydrogen produces o.o34kg ammonia 91.3kg ammonia will be produced by 91.3*0.006/.034=16.11kg of Hydogen Therefore, 75.19kg of Nitrogen and 16.11kg of Hydrogen will produce 91.3kg of Ammonia


How many hydrogen bonds can ammonia molecule forms?

Intramolecular forces; Hydrogen bonds occur in ammonia between the nitrogen and the hydrogen, NH3.Intermolecular forces:Hydrogen bonding between molecules occurs between the electronegative nitrogen atom (N) of one molecule of ammonia and an electropositive hydrogen atom (H) bonded to a nitrogen of different molecule of ammonia.
