Explanation:
Hello,
In this case, the reaction between sodium and ammonia is:

Thus, as we know the initial masses of both sodium and ammonia, we should first identify the limiting reactant, for which we firstly compute the available moles of sodium:

And the moles of sodium consumed by 21.4 g of ammonia (2:2 mole ratio):

In such a way, since less moles of sodium are available than consumed by ammonia, we can say, sodium is the limiting reactant. Furthermore, the mass of both sodium amide (39 g/mol) and hydrogen gas (2 g/mol) that are produced turn out:


Best regards.
Rate of reaction
The rate of a reaction is a measure of how quickly a reactant is used up, or a product is formed.
There are different ways to determine the rate of a reaction. The method chosen usually depends on the reactants and products involved, and how easy it is to measure changes in them.
The mean rate of reaction can be calculated using either of these two equations:

Measuring mass
The change in mass of a reactant or product can be followed during a reaction. This method is useful when carbon dioxide is a product which leaves the reaction container. It is not suitable for hydrogen and other gases with a small relative formula mass, Mr.
The units for rate are usually g/s or g/min.
