Answer to Question #144733 in General Chemistry for Mikkos Joshua Garcia

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).

How many grams of ammonia will be produced if there are 500.0 moles of nitrogen gas?

Answer 1

1 mole of N₂ = 2 mol of NH₃

1 mole of N₂ = 2×17g of NH₃

500 moles of N_{2 =} 2×17×500g of NH₃

= 17000g of NH₃
