Given the unbalanced equation: N2(g) + H2(g) → NH3(g)
When the equation is balanced using the smallest whole-number coefficients, the ratio of moles of hydrogen consumed to moles of ammonia produced is
1 ) 1:3
2) 2:3
3) 3:1
4) 3:2

Respuesta :

Answer:

                   Option-4 (3:2) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Following steps are taken to balance the given unbalanced chemical equation.

Step 1: Write the unbalanced chemical equation,

                         N₂ +  H₂ →  NH₃

Step 2: Balance Nitrogen Atoms;

There are 2 nitrogen atoms on left hand side and 1 nitrogen atoms on right hand site therefore, to balance them multiply NH₃ on right hand side by 2 i.e.

                         N₂ +  H₂ →  2 NH₃

Step 3: Balance Hydrogen Atoms;

Now, there are 2 hydrogen atoms on left hand side and 6 hydrogen atom on right hand site therefore, to balance them multiply H₂ on left hand side by 3 i.e.

                         N₂ +  3 H₂ →  2 NH₃

Now, the equation is balanced.

Step 4: Finding out mole ratios:

From balanced chemical equation it can be concluded that 3 moles of H₂ are involved in producing 2 moles of NH₃ hence, the mole ratio of consumption of H₂ to production of NH₃ is 3:2.
