It would create 12.1 g of ammonia (NH3).

The amount of hydrogen that is reacted in this reaction is:

(10 g N2)
((3.0gH2)/(14.0gN2)) = 2 g H2

According to the Law of Conservation of Mass, the mass of ammonia produced is the combination of hydrogen and nitrogen reacted or:

2.1g + 10.0g = 12.1 g of NH3
