Achemical company makes ammonia by reacting with nitrogen and hydrogen and company needs to make 70 badges of ammonia for a client each batch contains 175 g they have 22,000 g of nitrogen and 1000 g of hydrogen will i be able to make enough ammonia to fill the order

Explanation:

This is a disguised limiting reactant problem.

We are given the masses of two reactants and asked to determine if we have enough to make a given amount of product.

1. Calculate the mass of NH₃ needed.

2. Assemble the information

We will need a balanced equation with masses and molar masses, so let’s gather all the information in one place.  

M_r:           28.02      2.016     17.03

                     N₂     +   3H₂ ⟶ 2NH₃

Mass/g:   22 000      1000    12 250

3. Calculate the moles of NH₃ needed

4. Calculate the moles of each reactant

5. Calculate the moles of NH₃ from each reactant

the reaction mixture contains some ammonia, plus a lot of unreacted nitrogen and hydrogen. the mixture is cooled and compressed, causing the ammonia gas to condense into a liquid. the liquefied ammonia is separated and removed. the unreacted nitrogen and hydrogen are then recycled back into the reactor .
