How many molecules (not moles) of NH3 are produced from 3.86×10−4 g of H2?
Given:
The number of moles of H2:
⇒n=(3.86×10−4 g)(2 g/mol)⇒n=1.93×10−4 mol
The reaction between the N2 and H2 is:
N2+3H2→2NH3
From the above reaction, the ratio of the moles of H2 and NH3 is:
⇒moles of H2moles of NH3=32
Now the 1.93×10−4 mol of H2 is taking part in the reaction, thus the produced moles of NH3 is computed as:
⇒moles of NH3=(23)(moles of H2)⇒moles of NH3=(23)(1.93×10−4 mol)⇒moles of NH3≈1.287×10−4 mol
Thus the number of molecules produced of NH3 is computed as:
⇒N=(1.287×10−4 mol)(6.022×1023 mol−1)⇒N≈7.75×1019 molecules
