Since it is stated that nitrogen is the limiting reactant (sometimes called limiting reagent), you only have to worry about the amount of nitrogen since we know that there is excess silicon.
Since this is a stoichiometry question, the first thing to do is turn the mass of nitrogen gas into moles by dividing the mass of nitrogen gas by its molar mass.  (14.33g)/(28g/mol)=0.5118mol nitrogen gas.  Then you have to convert moles of nitrogen gas to moles of silicon nitride by using the fact that 2 moles of nitrogen gas turn into 1 mole of silicon nitride (i got that ratio from the chemical equation given).  (0.511mol N₂)x(1mol Si₃N₄/2mol N₂)=0.2555mol Si₃N₄.  Know you just need to find the mass of silicon nitride by multiplying the number of moles of silicon nitride by its molar mass.  (0.2555mol)x(140g/mol)=35.85g
Therefore the amount of silicon nitride produced from this reaction 35.85g.

I hope this helps

Describe how the meniscus is used to read volume measurements on a graduated cylinder
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:Tthe liquid in a graduated cylinder curves up at the edge where the liquid meets the wall of the cylinder. This curve in the liquid is called the meniscus and is used to determiine the volume of liquid in a graduated cylinder by observing the measurement tick closest to the bottom of the meniscus.

How many grams of water, H20 are needed if 88<br> grams of CO2 gas are produced?
joja [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

If one mole of carbon monoxide has a mass of 28.01 g and one mole of carbon dioxide has a mass of 44.01 g , it follows that the reaction produces 44.01 g of carbon dioxide for every 28.01 g of carbon monoxide.
