Reaction energy for the reaction of N2 + 3H2 -> 2NH3

  • E(NH3)= -56.55776873 a.u.
  • 2*E(NH3)= -113.11553746 a.u.
  • E(N2)= -109.52412868 a.u.
  • E(H2)= -1.17853936 a.u.
  • 3*E(H2)=-3.53561808 a.u.
  • ΔE=2*E(NH3)-[E(N2)+3*E(H2)]= -0.0557907 a.u. = -146.47848285 kJ/mol

In summary, the ammonia product is more unstable because the forward reaction is exothermic.

  • Charge distribution:

  • Charge on B-atom: 0.297
  • Charge on H-atom:-0.099
  • Molecular Orbitals:
  • Some examples of MOs:

  • It is the MO with the lowest energy, it is the combination of the 1s orbital in B atom and the 1s orbital in H atoms.The orbital hardly overlap since 2s orbital is more likely to be attracted to the nuclear.
