Question 12.
Read the passage given below and answer the questions that follow.
Decomposition of ammonia to hydrogen (and nitrogen) requires an energy input, and since the decomposition reaction is very slow even at relatively high temperatures, a catalyst is also needed. Since the reaction is an equilibrium reaction, it is not possible to completely decompose ammonia into hydrogen. Maximizing the efficiency of a complete fuel cell system utilizing metal amines for hydrogen storage,therefore, requires both efficient heat integration to minimize losses and a properly designed catalyst system to achieve a sufficiently fast hydrogen production rate.

For fuel cell systems that are not tolerant to ammonia, it is also necessary to include an ammonia scavenger. These units are already well known in the chemical industry. Historically, ammonia decomposition has received most of its attention as a model reaction studied to gain fundamental insight into the technically important ammonia synthesis reaction (Hansen, 1995).

However, a few industrial ammonia decomposition plants are currently in operation to produce deuterium-enriched ammonia by coupling consecutive synthesis- decomposition cycles combined with distillation. These plants operate at moderate pressures but at quite high temperatures (600 °C).

(B) PCl5(g)⇌PCl3(g) + Cl2(g)
(C) N2(g)+3H2(g) ⇌ 2NH3(g)

(iv) For the reaction, N2(g) + 3H2(g) ⇌ 2NH3(g), the partial pressures of N2 and H2 are 0.80 atm and 0.40 atm respectively at chemical equilibrium. The total pressure of the system is 2.80 atm. Calculate the value of Kp.
