Section D — Long Answer (5 marks) 1 × 5 = 5 marks
11.
$28\,g$ of $N_2$ is mixed with $6\,g$ of $H_2$ for $N_2 + 3H_2 \rightarrow 2NH_3$. Find the limiting reagent, mass of $NH_3$ formed and mass of excess reagent left.

Answer Key

Section A — Multiple Choice Questions
  1. (B) empirical formula
  2. (C) $75\%$
  3. (C) $1:1$
  4. (B) is completely consumed first
  5. (B) conservation of mass
Section B — Short Answer (2 marks)
  1. 4Fe + 3O2 -> 2Fe2O3.
  2. M = 17; H mass = 3; % H = (3/17) x 100 = 17.6%.
  3. Empirical formula is the simplest whole-number ratio of atoms. For C6H12O6 it is CH2O.
Section C — Short Answer (3 marks)
  1. C = 92.3/12 = 7.69; H = 7.7/1 = 7.7; ratio 1:1 so empirical formula CH (mass 13). n = 78/13 = 6, molecular formula C6H6.
  2. n(CH4) = 16/16 = 1 mol; gives 1 mol CO2 = 44 g.
Section D — Long Answer (5 marks)
  1. n(N2) = 28/28 = 1 mol; n(H2) = 6/2 = 3 mol. Per coefficient: N2 = 1/1 = 1, H2 = 3/3 = 1, both equal, so reactants are in exact ratio with no excess. NH3 formed = 2 mol = 2 x 17 = 34 g; no reactant left over.
