The reaction for the Haber process, the industrial production of ammonia, is
N2(g) + 3H2(g) → 2NH3(g)
Assume that under certain laboratory conditions ammonia is produced at the rate of 6.29 mol L-1 s-1. At what rate is hydrogen consumed?
Which of the following is not true?
1. When conditions are NOX-limited, the excess of VOCs in the atmosphere quickly oxidize available NO to NO2.
2. Reducing the concentration of NOX may lead to an increase in ozone formation when conditions are VOC- limited.
3. Smog episodes are not initiated during nighttime hours, because the hydroxyl radicals necessary to initiate the reactions are formed due to photodecomposition reactions.
4. Photochemical smog never occurs in areas without significant vehicle traffic and power plant emissions.
4. Metropolitan areas surrounded by wooded areas need to focus their smog reduction on limiting NOX concentrations due to the VOCs produced by surrounding trees.
Ozone in the stratosphere can be depleted by the following reactions involving CI atoms:
Step 1 (fast): CI + O3 <--> CIO + O2
Step 2 (slow): CIO + O -> CI + O2
(a) What is the rate law according to this mechanism?
(b) Based on the rate law from part (b), what should be the units of the observed rate constant, k? Use time units of seconds.
