Q1: Pick out the correct statement.A Reaction of NH3 with HNO3 to produce (NH4)2NO3 is endothermic.
B With increase in NH3/CO2 ratio, urea yield decreases for a given temperature, pressure and total feed rate.
C Biuret (an intermediate during urea manufacture) is toxic to seeds and animals.
D both (b) and (c).
ANS:B - With increase in NH3/CO2 ratio, urea yield decreases for a given temperature, pressure and total feed rate. In urea production via the urea synthesis reaction (NH3 + CO2 → NH2CONH2), the NH3/CO2 ratio plays a crucial role in determining the yield of urea. Here's an explanation of why increasing the NH3/CO2 ratio can lead to a decrease in urea yield, assuming constant temperature, pressure, and total feed rate:
