Question

Mg3N2(s)+6H2O(l)→3Mg(OH)2(s)+2NH3(g) When 36.0 g of H2O react, how many grams of NH3 are produced? When 36.0 g of H2O react, how many grams of NH3 are produced? 34.0 g 10.0 g 5.67 g 11.3 g 102 g

Answer 1

Answer:

11.3 g of $NH_{3}$ are produced from 36.0 g of $H_{2}O$

Explanation:

1. The balanced chemical equation is the following:

$Mg_{3}N_{2}(s)+6H_{2}O(l)=3Mg(OH)_{2}(s)+2NH_{3}(g)$

2. Use the molar mass of the $H_{2}O$, the molar mass of the $NH_{3}$ and the stoichiometry of the balanced chemical reaction to find how many grams of $NH_{3}$ are produced:

Molar mass $H_{2}O$ = 18$\frac{g}{mol}$

Molar mass $NH_{3}$ = 17$\frac{g}{mol}$

$36.0gH_{2}O*\frac{1molH_{2}O}{18gH_{2}O}*\frac{2molesNH_{3}}{6molesH_{2}O}*\frac{17gNH_{3}}{1molNH_{3}}=11.3gNH_{3}$

Therefore 11.3 g of $NH_{3}$ are produced from 36.0 g of $H_{2}O$
