Question

A chemist is studying the rate of the Haber synthesis: N2 + 3H2 → 2NH3
Starting with a closed reactor containing 1.25 mol/L of N2 and 0.50 mol/L of H2, the chemist finds that the H2 concentration has fallen to 0.25 mol/L in 21 seconds.
a) What is the relative rate of reaction over this time?
b) What is the average rate of NH3 production?
c) What is the N2 concentration after 21 seconds?
