Question

Nitrogen and hydrogen combine at a high temperature, in the presence of a catalyst, to produce ammonia.

 

N2(g)+3H2(g)⟶2NH3(g)

 

Assume 0.170 mol N20 and 0.529 mol H20 are present initially.

After complete reaction, how many moles of ammonia are produced?
NH3:
 
How many moles of H2 remain?
How many moles of N2remain?
What is the limiting reactant?
Expert Solution
Step 1

The balanced reaction taking place is given as,

=> N2 (g) + 3 H2 (g) ---------> 2 NH3 (g) 

Given : Moles of N2 = 0.170 mol.

And moles of H2 = 0.529 mol.
