Production of Anhydrous Ammonia Gas
Equation for the Reaction:
NH4Cl + NaOH > NH3 + NaCl + H2O
Chemical Formula Weight
NH4Cl 53.50
NaOH 40.01
NH3 17.03
NaCl 58.45
H2O 18.016
Solubility of Ammonium Chloride (endothermic):
Temperature Solubility in Water (Weight / Weight)
0 Degrees Celsius 22.9%
15 Degrees Celsius 26.0%
25 Degrees Celsius 28.3%
80 Degrees Celsius 39.6%
Theoretically:
100 Grams of NaOH would require:
133 Grams of Ammonium Chloride (in a saturated solution)
To generate:
43 Grams of ammonia gas (One liter of gas weighs 0.7714 STP)
Or 55 liters of ammonia gas.
Note: Actual yields are less than theoretical yields.
Chemicals Required:
Ammonium Chloride
Sodium Hydroxide
Soda Lime (optional, to dry the ammonia gas, for use in reactions)
Hydrochloric Acid (optional, to visually demonstrate the ammonia production.)
