Q.

Ammonium nitrite on heating produces a diatomic gas X, which forms a monolayer (e¬ffective area of each molecule 0.15 nm2) when adsorbed on the surface of 1.00 g of  Fe/Al2O3  catalyst at 77 K, the boiling point of liquid X. Upon warming, the X occupies 2.24 cm3  at  0°C and 760 torr. What is the surface area of catalyst (in m2)? Give your answer after rounding off to integer
(Avogadro’s number  NA= 6 × 1023) R = 0.08 atm L mol1 K1

Detailed Solution

Number of N2 molecules absorbed =2.24×10322.4×6×1023=6×1019
∴ Specific surface area  =6×1019×0.15×(109)2=9
