2CH4 + 2NH3 + 3O2 2HCN + 6H2O
mols CH4 = grams/molar mass CH4 =?
mols NH3 = grams/molar mass NH3 = ?
a. Convert mols CH4 to mols HCN using the coefficients in the balanced equation.
b. Convert mols NH3 the same way.
c. It is likely that the answers from a and b will not be the same which means one of them is wrong.
d. The correct answer in limiting reagent problems is ALWAYS the smaller value and the reagent producing that number is the limiting reagent.
Using the smaller value convert mols to grams. g = mols HCN x molar mass HCN
THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH!!!!! I WAS SO CONFUSED!!!
