Question

Ammonia is an important compound and useful to industries such as agricultural, pharmaceuticals, textile, plastics, petroleum, mining, and commercial. In the ammonia production, Haber process is utilized and it is shown as, N2(g) + 3H2(g) ➡️ 2NH3(g).

If there are 10.0 moles of ammonia produced, how many moles of nitrogen gas and hydrogen gas react?

The mole ratio is 1:3:2

If 10 moles of ammonia are produced

Then 20moles of nitrogen reacted

Then (10÷3)=3.3moles of hydrogen reacted.
