OpenStudy (aaronq):

you have to use the stoichiometric coefficient of \(H_2\). Assume the overall reaction has a coefficient of 1, so \(H_2\) is reacting 3x as fast as the overall reaction.

OpenStudy (technodynamic):

Can you show me how I should write that? I'm a little confused. Would I write the law as Rate=k[N2][H2]^3=[NH3]^2?

OpenStudy (technodynamic):

I already determined the formation of NH3 which is 4.9 x 10^-2 M/s and the reactant of N2 reacting which is 2.5 x 10^-2. Would I calculate these into the rate law too? I'm confused

OpenStudy (aaronq):

for this you dont need the rate law \(rate=\dfrac{d[reaction]}{dt}=\dfrac{1}{3}\dfrac{d[H_2]}{dt}\)

OpenStudy (technodynamic):

Oh okay thanks!

OpenStudy (aaronq):

np!

OpenStudy (vincent-lyon.fr):

aaronq is correct. Since H2 is a reactant, it is even better to write: \(rate=\dfrac{d[reaction]}{dt}=-\dfrac{1}{3}\dfrac{d[H_2]}{dt}\)

OpenStudy (aaronq):

right! i missed that negative sign, thanks @Vincent-Lyon.Fr

No problem ;-)
