Explanation:
What we're doing here is calculating basic mole-mole relationships, something that you'll be doing quite a bit!
The steps to solving mole-mole problems like this are
write the balanced chemical equation for the reaction (this is given)
divide the number of moles of the given known substance (3.55) by that substance's coefficient in the chemical equation (3)
multiply that number by the coefficient of the substance you're trying to find (4)
Using simple dimensional analysis, it looks like this:
3.55mol N2H4(←given amount)(4mol NH3(coefficient)3mol N2H4(coefficient))=4.73mol NH3
rounded to 3
significant figures, the amount given in the problem.
Thus, if the reaction goes to completion, 3.55 moles of N2H4 will yield 4.73 moles of NH3
