Question

Nitrogen gas reacts with hydrogen gas to form ammonia balanced equation

Answer 1

Answer:

Given,

Nitrogen(g) + Hydrogen(g) -----> Ammonia(g)

or, N2 (g) + H2 (g) -------> NH3 (g)

On the RHS, there's one N atom less, so we Multiply it by 2.

N2 + H2 -------> 2NH3

Now, N2 is balanced but hydrogen is not. There are 6 H-atoms on RHS but only 2 on LHS. We, now, use simple maths and multiply H2 by 3, to make get 6 H-atoms on LHS too.

N2 + 3H2 ------> 2NH3

Now, both N2 and H2 are balanced.
