Therefore, we need 3 moles of H\u2082 for every mole of N\u2082. Let&#8217;s check if we have enough H\u2082 to react with all the N\u2082:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Required moles of H\u2082 for 0.339 mol of N\u2082:<br>[<br>0.339 \\, \\text{mol N}_2 \\times 3 = 1.017 \\, \\text{mol H}_2<br>]<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Since we only have 0.98 mol of H\u2082, which is less than the required 1.017 mol, H\u2082 is the limiting reactant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 4: Calculate the enthalpy change<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, we know that 1 mol of N\u2082 reacts with 3 mol of H\u2082 to produce 2 mol of NH\u2083. The standard molar enthalpy of formation of NH\u2083(g) is \u201345.9 kJ\/mol. The enthalpy change for the reaction is proportional to the amount of limiting reactant, H\u2082.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For every 3 moles of H\u2082, 2 moles of NH\u2083 are formed. The enthalpy change for 2 moles of NH\u2083 is:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>[<br>\\Delta H = 2 \\times (-45.9 \\, \\text{kJ\/mol}) = -91.8 \\, \\text{kJ}<br>]<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, calculate the enthalpy change for the 0.98 mol of H\u2082:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>[<br>\\Delta H_{\\text{reaction}} = \\frac{0.98}{3} \\times (-91.8 \\, \\text{kJ}) = -29.8 \\, \\text{kJ}<br>]<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thus, the enthalpy change for the reaction is <strong>\u201329.8 kJ<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Correct Answer: <strong>C. \u201329.8 kJ<\/strong><\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The standard molar enthalpy of formation of NH3(g) is \u201345.9 kJ\/mol.
