- With a platinum catalyst, ammonia will burn in oxygen to give nitric oxide, NO. 4NH3(g)+5O2(g)4NO(g)+6H2O(g);H=906kJ What is the enthalpy change for the following reaction? NO(g)+32H2O(g)NH3(g)+34O2(g)arrow_forward9.84 Some claim it would be more logical to use heats of atomization, the energy required to convert any molecule to its separated atoms, rather than heats of formation for doing calculations with Hess's law. If you had a table of heats of atomization and calculated the combustion energy of a fuel, would you get the same answer as you would get using heats of formation? Explain your answer.arrow_forwardHydrogen sulfide gas is a poisonous gas with the odor of rotten eggs. It occurs in natural gas and is produced during the decay of organic matter, which contains sulfur.
