Nitrogen (N2) and hydrogen (H2) react to form ammonia (NH3). Consider a mixture of six nitrogen molecules and six hydrogen molecules in a closed container. Assuming the reaction goes to completion, what will the final product mixture be?

number of NH3 molecules?
number of N2 molecules?
number of H2 molecules?

How do i go about finding these?
I know the reaction is N2+3H2--> 2NH3

You know you wont have enough H2 molecules, you only have six H2, and you need only 2 N2 to react with those to create 4 (you get 2NH2 for each one N2). Can you take it from here?
