To determine the mass of ammonia that can be produced from 40.5 g of N₂, we need to use stoichiometry and the balanced chemical equation provided.
From the balanced equation, we can see that 1 mole of N₂ reacts with 3 moles of H₂ to produce 2 moles of NH₃. Therefore, we need to calculate the number of moles of N₂ in 40.5 g:
Number of moles of N₂ = mass / molar mass = 40.5 g / 28 g/mol = 1.4464 mol N₂
Using the mole ratio from the balanced equation, we can calculate the number of moles of NH₃ produced:
Number of moles of NH₃ = (1.4464 mol N₂) x (2 mol NH₃ / 1 mol N₂) = 2.8928 mol NH₃
Finally, we can use the molar mass of NH₃ to convert the number of moles to mass:
Mass of NH₃ = number of moles x molar mass = 2.8928 mol x 17 g/mol = 49.11 g
Therefore, the mass of ammonia that can be produced from 40.5 g of N₂ with excess H₂ is 49.11 g.
