Question

If 22.3mol of nitrogen is produced in the following reaction, how many moles of sodium is also produced?  Note:  The balancing is not correct.  Use the coefficients provided even though they are not the right ones.

2Na3N → N2 + 6Na

Steve · Answer

well, using the equation, 1 mole of N2 and 6 moles of Na are produced. That means six times as many moles of Na are produced as N2.
