finding how many molecules of hydrogen were used?
« on: January 16, 2011, 03:12:58 PM »
Ammonia is produced from its elements in a formation reaction. If 1.50 x 10^25 molecules of ammonia are produced, how many molecules of hydrogen were used?

So do I have to find how many moles there are first to find how many molecules their are?

You know the reaction?
It's 3H2+N2 :rarrow:2NH3.

You calculate the mols of ammonia, then you calculate number of mols of hydrogen and ten you calculate the number of molecules.

N(number of molecules)=NA*n
