Answer:

Mass = 4.55 g

Explanation:

Given data;

Mass of nitrogen = 3.75 g

Mass of ammonia produced = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

N₂ + 3H₂ → 2NH₃

Number of moles of nitrogen:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles =3.75 g / 28 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.134 mol

Now we compare the moles ammonia with  nitrogen

                              N₂              :      NH₃

                                1               :        2

                                0.134         :      2/1 ×0.134 = 0.268 mol                                

Theoretical yield:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass =0.268 mol × 17 g/mol

Mass = 4.55 g
