Dinitrogen and dihydrogen react with each other to produce ammonia according to the following chemical equation:N2 (g) 3H2 (g) → 2NH3 (g)(i) Calculate the mass of ammonia produced if 2.00 x 103 g dinitrogen reacts with 1.00 x 103 g of dihydrogen.(ii) Will any of the two reactants remain unreacted?(iii) If yes, which one and what would be its mass?

Answer»

N2 (g) + 3H2 (g) → 2NH3 (g)

2 x 14    6 x 1           2 x 17

= 28 g   = 6 g           = 34 g

(i) 28 g of N2 reacts with 6 g hydrogen to form 34 g of NH3

2.00 x 103 g of N2 reacts with 1.00 x 103 g of hydrogen to form 34/28 x 2.00 x 103 = 2751 g of NH3

(ii) Yes, hydrogen remains unreacted

(iii) 28 g N2 reacts with 6 g Hydrogen to form NH3

2 x 103 g N2 reacts with {6 x 2 x 103}/{28}g Hydrogen

= 428.5 g Hydrogen

Hydrogen remains unreacted

Mass of unreacted hydrogen = (1.00 - 0.43) x 103 g = 2571 g
