Since ammonia is represented by the symbol NH3, the balanced equation for this chemical reaction is N2 + 3H2 --> 2NH3. This indicates that one mole of Nitrogen requires three moles of Hydrogen to complete the reaction. This also shows that the reaction will form 2 moles of Ammonia which is a component of fertilizers.
