Consider the balanced equation below.

4NH3 + 3O2  2N2 + 6H2O  

What is the mole ratio of NH3 to N2?    4:2


Answer:

Mole ratio NH3: N2 = 4:2

Explanation:

The given equation depicts the reaction between ammonia (NH3) and oxygen (O2) to form nitrogen (N2) and water (H2O). The balanced equation is:

[tex]4NH_{3} +3 O_{2} \rightarrow 2 N_{2}+ 6H2O[\tex]

Based on the reaction stoichiometry:

4 moles of NH3 combines with 3 moles of O2 to form 2 moles of N2 and 6 moles of H2O

Thus the mole ratio of NH3: N2 = 4:2 (or 2:1)
