Answer:
16 moles of Ammonia are produced
Explanation:
First thing's first, we have to write out the balanced chemical equation for the production of ammonia.
We know that;
Nitrogen + Hydrogen --> Ammonia
N2 + 3H2 --> 2NH3
From the equation, we can tell that 1 mol of N2 reacts with 3 mol of H2 to produce 2 mol of NH3.
Since N2 is in excess, it cannot be a limiting reactant. So the mole relationship is reduced to;
3 mol of H2 produces 2 mol of NH3
24 mol of H2 produces x mol of NH3
3 = 2
24 = x
Upon cross multiplication and solving for x;
x = ( 24 * 2) / 3
x = 16 mol
