When 1 mole of nitrogen gas reacts with 2 moles of hydrogen gas, how many moles of ammonia are produced>
A. 1 moles
B. 2 moles
C. 3 moles
D. 4 moles
C. 3 moles
The balanced chemical equation for the reaction is:
N2 + 3H2 -> 2NH3
This means that 1 mole of nitrogen gas reacts with 3 moles of hydrogen gas to produce 2 moles of ammonia. Therefore, if 1 mole of nitrogen gas reacts with 2 moles of hydrogen gas, it will produce 3 moles of ammonia.
