Use the balanced equation in the image below. How many moles of
ammonia (NH3) will be produced if 2.22 moles of nitrogen (N2) are used?

N2 + 3H2 → 2 NH3

Answer :

Since there is excess hydrogen, that means that the concentration of hydrogen is not limiting.

According to the balanced chemical equation:

every mole of N2 and every 3 moles of H2 we obtain 2 moles of NH3. Since we have the amount of N2 and excess of hydrogen, we only need to work with the amount of N2.

1 mol of N2 will produce 2 moles of NH3

so now we can get a conversation tool :

moles of N2 * (2 moles of NH3/ 1 mole of N2) = moles of NH3

(2.22 mol of N2 x 2) ÷ 1 = 4.44 mol of NH3
