formation of ammonia by nitrogen and hydrogen is habers process wher 28g N2 results in formation of 34g NH3
so 35g N2 will form 34*35/28=42.5g NH3 where it given that reaction takes place in excess of H2
N2+3H2 gives 2NH3

Answer:


Mass_(NH_3)= 42.5775\ g

Step-by-step explanation:

Moles of
N_2:-

Mass = 35.00 g

Molar mass of
N_2 = 28.014 g/mol

The formula for the calculation of moles is shown below:


moles = (Mass\ taken)/(Molar\ mass)

Thus,


Moles= (35.00\ g)/(28.014\ g/mol)


Moles_(N_2)= 1.25\ mol

According to the reaction:-


N_2_((g)) + 3H_2_((g))\rightarrow 2NH_3_((g))

1 mole of
N_2 on reaction forms 2 moles of
NH_3

1.25 mole of
N_2 on reaction forms 2*1.25 moles of
NH_3

Moles of
NH_3 = 2.5 moles

Molar mass of
NH_3 = 17.031 g/mol

The formula for the calculation of moles is shown below:


moles = (Mass\ taken)/(Molar\ mass)

Thus,


2.5\ mol= (Mass)/(17.031\ g/mol)


Mass_(NH_3)= 42.5775\ g
