Answer : The theoretical yield of ammonia is, 29.58 Kg
Solution : Given,
Mass of = 5.22 Kg = 5220 g
Mass of = 31.5 Kg = 31500 g
Molar mass of = 2 g/mole
Molar mass of = 28 g/mole
Molar mass of = 17 g/mole
First we have to calculate the moles of and
.
Moles of =
Moles of =
Now we have to calculate the limiting and excess reagent.
The balanced chemical reaction will be,
From the balanced reaction we conclude that
1 mole of react with 3 moles of
1125 moles of react with moles of
That means is a limiting reagent and is an excess reagent.
Now we have to calculate the moles of ammonia.
From the reaction we conclude that,
3 moles of react to give 2 moles of ammonia
2610 moles of react to give moles of ammonia
Now we have to calculate the mass of ammonia.
Therefore, the theoretical yield of ammonia is, 29.58 Kg
