Use the following reaction. Remember to first check if it is balanced!

N2+3H22NH3

nitrogen + hydrogen ammonia

Complete the stoichiometry table below to calculate how many grams of ammonia are produced if 14g of H₂ are reacted with an excess of N₂. You will need to calculate molar masses with the following information:

Balanced equation: N2 + 3H2 -> 2NH3

Molar mass of NH3: 14 + 3(1) = 17 g/mol

For 14g of H2:
- Calculate moles of H2:
14g H2 * (1 mol H2 / 2g H2) = 7 moles H2
- Using the mole ratio from the balanced equation, calculate moles of NH3 produced:
7 moles H2 * (2 moles NH3 / 3 moles H2) = 4.67 moles NH3
- Calculate grams of NH3 produced:
4.67 moles NH3 * 17 g/mol = 79.39g

Therefore, if 14g of H2 are reacted with an excess of N2, 79.39g of NH3 will be produced.
