4 NH₃ + 3O₂ --> 2N₂ + 6H₂O
First, make sure that this is a balanced equation.
There are 4 moles of nitrogen on the left side, and 4 moles of nitrogen on the right side.
There are 12 moles of hydrogen on the left side, and 12 moles of hydrogen on the right side.
There are 6 moles of oxygen on the left side, and 6 moles of oxygen on the right side.
The equation is therefore balanced, and we may proceed.
a) the mole ratio for NH₃ to N₂ is 4 to 2, which can be simplified to 2:1 or 2/1.
b) the mole ratio for H₂O to O₂ is 6 to 3, which can be simplified to 2:1 or 2/1.
It would be considered an element as nothing has been added or taken away from it
