Type: MCQ-fact-Medium-Class 11
In the reaction between nitrogen and hydrogen to produce ammonia, which reagent is identified as the limiting reagent when 50.0 kg of N2 is mixed with 10.0 kg of H2?
A
Nitrogen (N2)
B
Hydrogen (H2)
C
Ammonia (NH3)
D
None of the above
Correct Answer
Option B
Detailed Explanation
In the situation described, dihydrogen (H2) is the limiting reagent because it is present in a smaller amount compared to the amount required for the reaction with nitrogen (N2). This is determined from the molar ratios required for the production of ammonia (NH3).
