The reaction between N₂ and F₂ gives Nitrogen trifluoride as the product. The balanced equation is;
N₂ + 3F₂ → 2NF₃
The stoichiometric ratio between N₂ and NF₃ is 1 : 2
Hence,
moles of N₂ / moles of F₂ = 1 / 2
moles of N₂ / 25 mol = 0.5
moles of N₂ = 0.5 x 25 mol = 12.5 mol
Hence N₂ moles needed = 12.5 mol
At STP (273 K and 1 atm) 1 mol of gas = 22.4 L
Hence needed N₂ volume = 22.4 L mol⁻¹ x 12.5 mol
= 280 L
