When 28 g of nitrogen and 6 g of hydrogen react, 34 g of ammonia are produced. If 100 g of nitrogen react with 6 g of hydrogen, how much ammonia will be produced? 106 g 34 g 128 g 40 g

34 g

Explanation:

Let's consider the following balanced equation.

N₂ + 3 H₂ → 2 NH₃

The theoretical mass ratio of N₂ to H₂ is 28g N₂ : 6g H₂ = 4.6g N₂ : 1g H₂.

The experimental mass ratio of N₂ to H₂ is 100g N₂ : 6g H₂ = 16.6g N₂ : 1g H₂.

As we can see, hydrogen is the limiting reactant.

According to the task, we 6 g of H₂ react completely, 34 g of ammonia are produced.
