4PRACTICE PROBLEM
Ammonia can be produced from the reaction of hydrogen gas and nitrogen gas at 500°C with a presence of a catalyst.
i. Calculate the moles of air needed to react with 1.5 mol of hydrogen gas given that air is 78.0% N2 by volume.
ii. Determine the volume (in L) of this air occupies at STP.
