The Haber-Bosch process is a very important
industrial process. In the Haber-Bosch process,
hydrogen gas reacts with nitrogen gas to produce
ammonia according to the equation
3H₂(g) + N₂ (g)→2NH3(g)
The ammonia produced in the Haber-Bosch process
has a wide range of uses, from fertilizer to
pharmaceuticals. However, the production of
ammonia is difficult, resulting in lower yields than
those predicted from the chemical equation.
1.04 g H₂ is allowed to react with 10.4 g N₂, producing 2.68 g NH3.
Part A
What is the theoretical yield in grams for this reaction under the given conditions?
Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units.

Titanium occurs in the magnetic mineral ilmenite (FeTiO3), which is
often found mixed up with sand. The ilmenite can be separated from
the sand with magnets. The titanium can then be extracted from the
ilmenite by the following set of reactions:
FeTiO3(s)+3Cl₂ (g)+3C(s)→3CO(g)+FeCl₂ (s)+TiCl (9)
TiCl4 (g)+2Mg(s)→2MgCl₂ (1)+Ti(s)
Suppose that an ilmenite-sand mixture contains 24.6 % ilmenite by
mass and that the first reaction is carried out with a 90.6% yield.
Part A
If the second reaction is carried out with an 86.3 % yield, what mass of titanium can be obtained from 1.10 kg of the ilmenite-sand mixture?
