2N2(g) + 3H2(g) ==> 2NH3(g) ... balanced equation
Look at the coefficients int he balanced equation. You see that 2 mols N2 reacts with 3 mols H2. So, we need to convert the 35 g N2 to mols.
35 g N2 x 1 mol N2 / 28 g = 1.25 mols N2 is reacting.
How many moles of H2 will that require?
Use the mol ratios in the balanced equation fo find out.
1.25 mols N2 x 3 mols H2 / 2 mol N2 = 1.875 mols H2 required
Now convert this to grams
1.875 mols H2 x 2 g H2 / mol = 3.75 g H2 = 3.8 g H2 (2 sig. figs.)
