![**Title: Calculating Moles of Ammonia (NH₃) Produced from Nitrogen**
**Objective:** Determine the moles of ammonia (NH₃) producible from 2.66 moles of nitrogen (N₂) using the given chemical reaction.
**Chemical Reaction:**
\[ \text{N}_2 (g) + 3 \text{H}_2 (g) \rightarrow 2 \text{NH}_3 (g) \]
**Explanation:**
In this balanced chemical equation, one mole of nitrogen gas (\(\text{N}_2\)) reacts with three moles of hydrogen gas (\(\text{H}_2\)) to produce two moles of ammonia gas (\(\text{NH}_3\)).
To find out how many moles of ammonia can be produced from 2.66 moles of nitrogen, use the molar ratio from the balanced equation:
1 mole of \(\text{N}_2\) produces 2 moles of \(\text{NH}_3\).
**Calculation:**
\[ 2.66 \, \text{moles of} \, \text{N}_2 \times \frac{2 \, \text{moles of} \, \text{NH}_3}{1 \, \text{mole of} \, \text{N}_2} = 5.32 \, \text{moles of} \, \text{NH}_3 \]
**Conclusion:**
From 2.66 moles of nitrogen, 5.32 moles of ammonia can be produced, assuming there is enough hydrogen gas present to complete the reaction.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F53917c9e-ccf4-4185-ada8-2f03b0536363%2Fd27be41f-9627-47c1-aab8-cbfedf6a2c2e%2Fj36y9re7_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
