Ammonia (NH3) is produced industrially using the Haber-Bosch process (1912) which combines nitrogen (N2) and hydrogen (H2) at high temperatures (500°C) and high pressures (200 atm). What is the theoretical yield of ammonia (NH3) that can be produced when a cylinder containing 50.0 kg of nitrogen gas (N2) is reacted with excess hydrogen gas (H2)?

Question

cuanchi · Answer

you need the balanced equation of Haber-Bosch, convert the kg of N2 to moles and by the stoichiometry of the reaction you can calculate how much NH3 will be produced
