Question
Ammonia has been studied as an alternative "clean" fuel for internal combustion engines, since its reaction with oxygen
produces only nitrogen and water vapor, and in the liquid form it is easily transported. An industrial chemist studying this
reaction fills a 1.5 L flask with 1.7 atm of ammonia gas and 2.1 atm of oxygen gas, and when the mixture has come to
equilibrium measures the partial pressure of water vapor to be 0.77 atm.
Calculate the pressure equilibrium constant for the combustion of ammonia at the final temperature of the mixture. Round
your answer to 2 significant digits.
