Ammonia is dried and collected in the laboratory by passing it through concentrated sulfuric acid, which acts as a drying agent. Aqueous ammonia is prepared through the reaction of ammonia gas with water, which is illustrated by a diagram. Ammonia is manufactured through the Haber process, where nitrogen and hydrogen gases react under high pressure and temperature to form ammonia, according to the balanced equation N2 + 3H2 → 2NH3. Sulfuric acid cannot be used to dry ammonia gas because it reacts with ammonia to form ammonium sulfate. Aqueous ammonia has a pungent smell due to its ability to dissolve in water.

1. How is ammonia dried and collected in the laboratory?
2. Explain with a diagram the preparation of aqueous ammonia. 3. Ammonia is manufactured by Haber’s process- Under what conditions do the reactants combine to form ammonia? Give a balanced equation for the reaction. 4. Give reasons- (a) Conc. H SO is a good drying agent. yet it is not used to dry NH . 2 4 3
(b)Aqueous solution of ammonia gives a pungent smell.
5. Give chemical equation(s) to prove that NH contains nitrogen and hydrogen? 3
6. Distinguish between the Sodium sulphate and ammonium sulphate.
7. When an ammonium salt is warmed with sodium hydroxide solution, a gas is evolved. State three ways in which you could identify this gas. 8. Ammonia reacts with excess chorine to form ....... (nitrogen/nitrogen trichloride/ammonium chloride). 9. Distinguish between the following pairs of compounds using the test given in bracket- (I) Iron (II) sulphate and Iron (III) sulphate (using ammonium hydroxide).
