Solution

To find the enthalpy change for the reaction 2NH3 → N2 + 3H2, we can use the enthalpy of formation values for NH3, N2, and H2.

Given that the enthalpy of formation of NH3 is -46 kJ/mol, we can use this value to calculate the enthalpy change for the reaction.

The balanced equation shows that 2 moles of NH3 react to form 1 mole of N2 and 3 moles of H2.

Using the stoichiometric coefficients, we can calculate the enthalpy change as follows:

Enthalpy change = (1 mol N2 × enthalpy of formation of N2) + (3 mol H2 × enthalpy of formation of H2) - (2 mol NH3 × enthalpy of formation of NH3)

Substituting the given values, we get:

Enthalpy change = (1 × 0 kJ/mol) + (3 × 0 kJ/mol) - (2 × -46 kJ/mol) Enthalpy change = 0 kJ/mol + 0 kJ/mol + 92 kJ/mol Enthalpy change = 92 kJ/mol

Therefore, the enthalpy change for the reaction 2NH3 → N2 + 3H2 is 92 kJ.
