Question

Determine the correct set-up below to determine what mass, in grams, of N2 is needed to completely react with 105 g F2 ?

Answer 1

C: 1 mol F2/38 g F2

Step-by-step explanation:

The reaction equation is;

N2 + 3F2 = 2NF3

Now, to know how many grams, of N2 is needed to completely react with 105 g F2 and since the molar mass of N2 is 28.02 g/mol, Molar mass of F2 is 38 g/mol, number of moles attached to N2 and F2 in the reaction are 1 and 3 moles respectively, then we will have;

105 g F2 × 1 mol F2/38 g F2 × 1 mol N2/3 mol F2 × 28.02 g N2/1 mol N2

Option C is Thus correct
