Answer 1

9 grams of hydrogen gas (H2) will SC  Johnson need to react in order to make 1 bottle of Windex.

Explanation:

Balance equation for the formation of ammonia from H2 gas.

N2 + 3H2 ⇒ 2 $NH_{3}$

Given

mass of ammonia in 1 bottle of windex = 51 gram

atomic mass of ammonia 17.01 gram/mole

number of moles = $\frac{mass}{atomic mass of 1 mole}$

number of moles = $\frac{51}{17.01}$

                               = 3 moles of ammonia is formed.

in 1 bottle of windex there are 3 moles of ammonia 0r 51 grams of ammonia.

From the equation it can be found that:

3 moles of hydrogen reacted to form 2 moles of ammonia

so, x moles of hydrogen will react to form 3 moles of ammonia.

$\frac{2}{3}$ = $\frac{3}{x}$

x = 4.5 moles of hydrogen will be required.

to convert moles into gram formula used:

mass = atomic mass x number of moles  (atomic mass of H2 is 2grams/mole)

        = 2 x 4.5

        = 9 grams of hydrogen.
