Answer:
B
Explanation:
A chemical reaction equation is balanced if the number of atoms of each element on the right hand side of the reaction equation is the same as the number of atoms of the same element on the left hand side of the reaction equation.
By inspection, the chemical reaction written in the question is a balanced chemical reaction equation.
However, the statement in option B that more molecules of N2 are needed to produce NH3 than molecules of H2 is a false statement since only one mole of N2 and three moles of H2 are required to produce NH3 according to the reaction equation as written in the question.

Br
Explanation:
To calculate the valance electrons, look at the periodic table to find the valance electrons for each atom and add them together. P is in column 5A, so it has 5, Br is in column 7A, so it has 7 (multiply by 4 since there are 4 Br atoms to give 28) and there is a 1- charge, so add one more electron. 5+28+1=34, so there are 34 electrons to place. P would be the central atom, so place it in the middle. Place each Br around the P (as shown above) with a a single line connecting it. Each line represents 2 electrons, so 8 total have been place, leaving 26 remaining. Place 6 electrons around each Br (2 on each of the unbonded sides), which leaves 2 electrons remaining. The remaining pair of unbound electrons will be attached to the P between any two Br atoms. Phosphorus doesn't have to follow the octet rule, so it actually ends up with 10 valance electrons.
I am going to say D and C.
