Question

Give the chemical equation(s) to prove that \[\ce{NH3}\] contains nitrogen and hydrogen.

Chemical Equations/Structures
Short Answer

Solution 1

\[\ce{N2 + 3H2 <-->[Fe/Mo][450-500°C]2NH3 + Heat}\]

This reaction is reversible and exothermic. From the reaction, it is proved that ammonia contains nitrogen and hydrogen.

Also,

\[\ce{4NH3 + 3O2 ->[Heat]2N2_{(g)} ↑ + 6H2O_{(g)}↑}\]

Ammonia burns with a yellowish flame. It produces water vapour and nitrogen. This shows that ammonia contains nitrogen and hydrogen.

Solution 2

When an electric spark is passed through \[\ce{NH3}\] gas, it is dissociated into nitrogen and hydrogen.

\[\ce{2NH3 <=> N2 + 3H2}\]

This proves that ammonia gas contains nitrogen and hydrogen.
