In the Haber process, 14g of Nitrogen gas reacts with Hydrogen gas to produce Ammonia, NH3. How many grams of Ammonia will be made?

Answer 1

N₂ + 3H₂ ==> 2NH₃ ... balanced equation

14 g N₂ x 1 mol N₂/28 g N₂ x 2 mol NH₃/mol N₂ x 17 g NH₃/mol NH₃ = 17 g NH₃

Answer 2

Hello Izzy,

First, we need to create our balanced equation [Nitrogen gas is (N2) and hydrogen gas is (H2)]:

N2(g) + H2(g) --> 2NH3(aq)

Now we can use our equation and do stoichiometry to figure out how many grams of ammonia were produced.

14gN2 x (1molN2/28gN2) x (2molNH3/1molN2) x (17gNH3/1molNH3) = 17 grams of NH3 were produced.

I hope this helps!
