Question

Suppose 15 g of (NH4)HS, the main component of stink bombs, is placed in a steel vessel (of 25 L) and heated to 350ºC.  Which of the following decomposition reactions, would yield the highest pressure inside the vessel?  

 

Question 1 options:

 

A) 

(NH4)HS (s) → NH3 (g) + H2S (g

 

B) 

2(NH4)HS (s) → N2 (g) + 5 H2 (g)  + S (l)

 

C) 

2(NH4)HS (s) → N2H(g) + 4 H2 (g)  + S (l)

 

D) 

2(NH4)HS (s) → N2H(g) + 3 H2 (g)  + S (l
