Answers to questions

how many modes do you expect from the 3N-6 rule? 3

which modes are degenerate (ie have the same energy)? bends(2,3) and asymmetric stretches(5,6)

which modes are "bending" vibrations and which are "bond stretch" vibrations? bends:1,2,3 stretchees:4,5,6

which mode is highly symmetric? 1,4

one mode is known as the "umbrella" mode, which one is this? 4

how many bands would you expect to see in an experimental spectrum of gaseous ammonia?Two bands would be observed on the spectrum since 2,3 are degenerated and 5,6 are degenerated; also, the 4,5 and 6 are not intense enough to be observed. Thus, overall two bands will be observed.

Charge on the N-atom and H-atoms

Nitrogen:-1.125 Hydrogen:0.375 would expect to see a slight negative charge on nitrogen and a slightly positive charge on hydrogen since nitrogen is more electronegative than hydrogen.

Answers to questions

how many modes do you expect from the 3N-5 rule? 1

which modes are degenerate (ie have the same energy)? only one mode which modes are "bending" vibrations and which are "bond stretch" vibrations? stretch:1

which mode is highly symmetric? 1

one mode is known as the "umbrella" mode, which one is this? no how many bands would you expect to see in an experimental spectrum of gaseous ammonia? 1

Charges

zero charge on both nitrogen atoms, since same atoms have the same electronegatity.

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

   E(NH3)=-56.55776873 a.u.
   2*E(NH3)=-113.11553746
   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.
                              =-146.8176316 KJmol-1

since the reaction is exothermic, the product is more stable than the gaseous reactants.
