Question

How many moles of NH3 can be produced from 24.0 mol of H2 and excess N2

Answer 1

First, let's construct the reaction of the reactants to produce the product. The reactants are hydrogen gas, H₂, and nitrogen gas, N₂. They will produce ammonia, NH₃. The complete balanced reaction is:

N₂ + 3 H₂ → 2 NH₃

Using the stoichiometric coefficients:
24 mol H₂ * 2 mol NH₃/3 mol H₂ = 16 moles NH₃ produced
