Question

If x dm 3 of N2 reacts with x dm3 of H2 to form NH3
under suitable conditions, then
(1) H2 is limiting reagent
(2) N2 is limiting reagent
(3) Both reactants are limiting reagents
(4) NH3 is limiting reagent​

Answer 1

Hey Dear,

◆ Answer -

(1) H2 is limiting reagent

● Explanation -

Reaction between H2 and N2 to form ammonia is as following -

N2 + 3H2 --> 2NH3

In this reaction, H2 required is three times that of N2. As we have equal amount of both H2 and N2, H2 will get diminished first. Thus H2 is a limiting reagent.

Best luck. Thanks for asking..

Answer 2

Answer:

H2 is limiting reagent
