Question

Assume you completed the reaction below in the lab. You began with 22 grams of nitrogen, and produced 19 grams of ammonia (NH3). According to the mass calculations, you should be able to produce 26 grams of ammonia. What is the percent yield? N2 + 3 H2 → 2 NH3

Answer 1

The percent yield is 73,07%

Step-by-step explanation:

N2 + 3 H2 → 2 NH3

If you be able to produce 26 grams of ammonia, that is the 100 % yield reaction so:

26 grams ___ 100 %

19 grams ____ (19. 100) / 26 = 73,07%
