Neutrons keep the Protons "in check", meaning Protons hold a very strong repulsive positive charge. The Neutrons counteract the repulsive force within a small space to keep the Nucleus stable.

I hope this helps! :)

a sample of 23.2 grams of nitrogen gas is reacted with 23.2 G of hydrogen gas to produce ammonia. using the balanced equation be
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

Hydrogen

Explanation:

First thing's first, we have to write out the balanced chemical equation for the reaction.

This is given as;

N2 + 3H2 --> 2NH3

From the stoichiometrey of the reaction;

Molar mass of N = 14

Molar mass of H = 1

(1 * (14 * 2)) = 28g of N2 reacts with (3 * (1 * 2)) = 6g of H2

This means that if there are equal mass of both Nitrogen and Hydrogen. We would run out of Hydrogen first. This means Hydrogen is our limiting reactant as it determines the amount of products that can be formed.
