Answer:
176.8 g of ammonia, NH3.
Explanation:
We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction. This is given below:
N2 + 3H2 —> 2NH3
Next, we shall determine the mass of H2 that reacted and the mass of NH3 produced from the balanced equation. This is illustrated below:
Molar mass of H2 = 2x1 = 2 g/mol
Mass of H2 from the balanced equation = 3 x 2 = 6 g
Molar mass of NH3 = 14 + (3x1) = 17 g/mol
Mass of NH3 from the balanced equation = 2 x 17 = 34 g.
From the balanced equation above,
6 g of H2 reacted to produce 34 g of NH3.
Finally, we shall determine the mass of ammonia, NH3 produced by reacting 31.2 g of H2.
This can be obtained as follow:
From the balanced equation above,
6 g of H2 reacted to produce 34 g of NH3.
Therefore, 31.2 g of H2 will react to produce = (31.2 x 34)/6 = 176.8 g of NH3.
Therefore, 176.8 g of ammonia, NH3 were obtained from the reaction.
