Consider the following reversible reaction. In a 3.00 liter container, the following amounts arc found in equilibrium at 400 degree C: 0.0420 mole N_2, 0.516 mole H_2 and 0.0357 mole NH_3. Evaluate K_c. N_2 (g) + 3H_2 (g) 2NH_3(g) a. 0.202 b. 1.99 c. 16.0 d. 4.94 e. 0.503

every chemical equation adheres to the law of conservation of mass, which states that matter cannot be created or destroyed. therefore, there must be the same number of atoms of each element on each side of a chemical equation.

as given the equation is

2al + 6 hcl > 2 alcl3 + 3 h2(g)

as per equation two moles of aluminum reacts with six moles of hcl to give two moles of alcl3 and three moles of hydrogen gas

given: three moles of al are present and 7 moles of hcl

for three moles of aluminum nine moles of hcl will be required

however as 7 moles of hcl are present so the limiting reagent is hcl

hcl is going to decide the number of moles of product formed

when six moles of hcl are present = 3 moles of h2 are formed

when one mole of hcl is present == 3/6 mole sof h2 will be formed

when 7 moles of hcl are present = 3 x 7/ 6 moles of h2 will be formed = 3.5 moles of h2
