Answer to Question #150376 in Chemistry for Sergio

Question

Identify the correct mole ratio between nitrogen and hydrogen in the following balanced equation.

N2 + 3H2 -> 2NH3

Group of answer choices

Answer 1

Solution:

The balanced chemical equation:

N₂ + 3H₂ -> 2NH₃

According to the equation: Moles of N₂ = Moles of H₂ / 3

Hence,

n(N₂) : N(H₂) = 1 : 3

Answer: the mole ratio between nitrogen (N2) and hydrogen (H2) is 1:3.
