PLEASE ANSWER 30 POINTS!!!!!

How many grams of NH3 form when 22g H2 react completely?
3H2 + N2 ---> 2NH3
H2: 2 g/mol NH3: 17 g/mol
22g H2 ----> gNH3

Answer 1

122 grams of NH3 will be produced when 22 grams of H2 react completely.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to calculate the number of moles of H2 present in 22g of the substance:

Number of moles of H2 = Mass of H2 / Molar mass of H2

Number of moles of H2 = 22g / 2 g/mol = 11 mol

According to the balanced chemical equation, the reaction between H2 and N2 produces NH3 in a 3:2 ratio. This means that for every 3 moles of H2, 2 moles of NH3 are produced. We can use this ratio to calculate the number of moles of NH3 produced:

Number of moles of NH3 = (2/3) x Number of moles of H2

Number of moles of NH3 = (2/3) x 11 mol = 22/3 mol

Finally, we can use the molar mass of NH3 to convert the number of moles of NH3 to grams:

Mass of NH3 = Number of moles of NH3 x Molar mass of NH3

Mass of NH3 = (22/3) mol x 17 g/mol = 122 g (rounded to three significant figures)
