Answer to Question #110815 in General Chemistry for Monica

Question

How many grams of N2 can be produce when 4.00 g of O2 how to react

Answer 1

In order to understand how much N2 can be produce, the reaction equation must be specified. Consider the combustion of ammonia:

4NH₃ + 3O₂ = 2N₂ + 6H₂O

If react 4.00/32 = 0.125 mol we get 0.125*3/2 = 0.1875 mol of N₂. Mass of N₂ is 0.1875*28 = 5.25 g.
