    At 1000 K, from the data \[{{N}_{2}}(g)+3{{H}_{2}}(g)\xrightarrow{{}}2N{{H}_{3}}(g);\] \[\Delta H=-123.77\,\text{kJ}\,\text{mo}{{\text{l}}^{-1}}\]
    Substance \[{{N}_{2}}\] \[{{H}_{2}}\] \[N{{H}_{3}}\]
    P/R 3.5 3.5 4
    Calculate the heat of formation of \[\text{N}{{\text{H}}_{\text{3}}}\text{.}\]at 300 K.

    A) \[-\text{ }44.42\text{ kJ mo}{{\text{l}}^{-1}}\]

    B) \[-\text{ }88.85\text{ kJ mo}{{\text{l}}^{-1}}\]

    C) \[+\text{ }44.42\text{ kJ mo}{{\text{l}}^{-1}}\]

    D) \[+\text{ }88.85\text{ kJ mo}{{\text{l}}^{-1}}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    From Kirchhoffs equation \[\Delta {{H}_{2}}(1000\,K)=\Delta {{H}_{1}}(300\,K)\]                                 \[+\,\Delta {{C}_{p}}(1000-300)\] Here, \[\Delta {{\Eta }_{2}}(1000\,K)=-123.77\,kJ\,mo{{l}^{-}}\]                 \[\Delta {{H}_{1}}(300\,K)=?\]                 \[\Delta {{C}_{p}}=2{{C}_{p}}(N{{H}_{3}})-[{{C}_{p}}({{N}_{2}}),+3{{C}_{p}}({{H}_{2}})]\]                                 \[=-6R\]                                 \[=-6\times 8.314\times {{10}^{-3}}\,kJ\]                 \[\therefore \]  \[-123.77=\Delta {{H}_{1}}(300\,K)\]                                 \[-6\times 8.314\times {{10}^{-3}}\times 700\]                 or            \[\Delta {{\Eta }_{1}}(300\,K)=-88.85\,kJ\] For two moles of \[\text{N}{{\text{H}}_{\text{3}}}\] \[\therefore \]  \[\Delta {{\Eta }_{f}}(N{{H}_{3}})=\frac{\Delta {{H}_{1}}(300\,K)}{2}\]                 \[=-\frac{88.85}{2}\] \[=-44.42\,\text{kJ}\,\text{mo}{{\text{l}}^{-}}^{1}\]
