Question

Consider the equation below.

N2 + 3H2 Right arrow. 2NH3

What is the mole ratio of hydrogen to ammonia?

Answer 1

H2: NH3:

3:2

Step-by-step explanation:

Mole ratio is defined as the ratio of moles of the chemical species present in a chemical reaction.

In a chemical reaction, it is the ratio of the stoichiometric coefficients.

For the given chemical reaction:

N₂+ 3H2 2NH3

Moles of hydrogen gas = 3

Moles of nitrogen gas = 1

Moles of ammonia gas = 2

So, the mole ratio of hydrogen to ammonia 3:2

Hence, the mole ratio of H2: NH3 = 3:
