<u>Step 1: Define</u>
[RxN - Unbalanced] Mg + N₂ → Mg₃N₂
[RxN - Balanced] 3Mg + N₂ → Mg₃N₂
[Given] 1.22 g Mg
[Solve] grams Mg₃N₂
<u>Step 2: Identify Conversions</u>
[RxN] 3 mol Mg → Mg₃N₂
[PT] Molar Mass of Mg - 24.31 g/mol
[PT] Molar Mass of N - 14.01 g/mol
Molar Mass of Mg₃N₂ - 3(24.31) + 2(14.01) = 100.95 g/mol
