Objective knowledge check questions a chemist fills a reaction vessel with 4.64 atm nitrogen (n) gas, 6.79 atm hydrogen (h) gas, and 8.54 stm ammonia (nh) gas at a temperature of 25.0°c under these conditions, calculate the reaction free energy ag for the following chemical reaction n, (b) + 3h2(g) + 2nh, (8) use the thermodynamic information in the aleks data tab. round your answer to the nearest kilojoule, x 5 ? dont know

answer: - 3.) the oxidation state of nitrogen in no changes from +2 to 0, and the oxidation state of carbon in co changes from +2 to +4 as the reaction proceeds.

solution: - as per the rules, oxidation number of oxygen in its compounds is -2. the sum of oxidation numbers of all the elements of a molecule or compound is zero.

also, the oxidation number in elemental form is zero.

in no, the oxidation number of o is -2 so the oxidation number of n is +2 so that the sum is zero.

similarly, the oxidation number of c in co is +2 and o is -2.

on product side the oxidation number of n is 0 as it is in the elemental form() .

oxidation number of c in carbon dioxide is +4 as there are two oxygen in it and we know that each oxygen is -2.

so, oxidation number of n is changing from +2 to 0 and the oxidation number of c is changing from +2 to +4.

since nitrogen is reduced and hence no is acting as an oxidizing agent. carbon is oxidized and so co is acting as a reducing agent.

so, the right choice is number 3.)the oxidation state of nitrogen in no changes from +2 to 0, and the oxidation state of carbon in co changes from +2 to +4 as the reaction proceeds.

the answer would be a
