Final answer:
The volume of NH3 produced at STP from 25.0 g of N2, when reacted with an excess of H2, is 40.0402 liters.
Step-by-step explanation:
To calculate the volume of NH3 produced at STP (Standard Temperature and Pressure) from 25.0 g of N2 reacting with an excess of H2, first, we need to determine the moles of N2:
Molar mass of N2 = 28.0 g/mol
Moles of N2 = mass / molar mass = 25.0 g / 28.0 g/mol = 0.8929 mol
Using the balanced chemical equation:
N2(g) + 3H2(g) → 2NH3(g)
We see that 1 mole of N2 produces 2 moles of NH3. Therefore, 0.8929 moles of N2 will produce 2 * 0.8929 moles of NH3, which is 1.7858 moles.
At STP, 1 mole of gas occupies 22.4 liters. The volume of NH3 produced will therefore be:
Volume of NH3 = moles of NH3 * volume of 1 mole at STP
Volume of NH3 = 1.7858 mol * 22.4 L/mol = 40.0402 L
