NEET Chemistry Limiting Reagent MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-numerical-Hard-Class 11

In a reaction where 50.0 kg of N2 and 10.0 kg of H2 are mixed to form NH3, which reagent is the limiting reagent and what amount of NH3 (in moles) is produced?

A

H2 is the limiting reagent, 3.30 × 10^3 moles of NH3 are produced

B

N2 is the limiting reagent, 5.36 × 10^3 moles of NH3 are produced

C

H2 is the limiting reagent, 5.36 × 10^3 moles of NH3 are produced

D

N2 is the limiting reagent, 3.30 × 10^3 moles of NH3 are produced

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

According to the balanced chemical equation, 3 moles of H2 are required for every mole of N2 to produce NH3. The moles of H2 available (4.96 × 10^3) are less than required (5.36 × 10^3), making H2 the limiting reagent, producing 3.30 × 10^3 moles of NH3.
