NEET Chemistry Limiting Reagent MCQ Question
In a reaction between nitrogen gas and hydrogen gas to form ammonia, which statements are correct regarding the limiting reagent and the amount of ammonia produced?
Dihydrogen is the limiting reagent, leading to the formation of ammonia based only on its available moles.
The reaction will proceed until all nitrogen is consumed, regardless of the amount of hydrogen present.
The amount of ammonia produced depends solely on the moles of nitrogen present in the reaction.
Ammonia formation will be limited by the stoichiometric ratio of nitrogen to hydrogen in the reaction.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
Dihydrogen is identified as the limiting reagent because it is present in insufficient quantity to react with all of the nitrogen, thus determining the maximum amount of ammonia produced, which is based on its available moles.
