Question

5 F2 (g) + 2 NH3 (g) → N2F4 (g) + 6 HF (g) If you reacted 2.42 moles of F2 how many moles of HF would be produced?

Answer 1

The balanced equation is telling us that for every 5 moles of F2 that react, 6 moles of HF are produced.

To find out how many moles of HF would be produced if we have 2.42 moles of F2, we can use the following conversion:

moles of HF = (moles of F2) x (moles of HF/moles of F2)

moles of HF = (2.42 moles) x (6 moles / 5 moles)

moles of HF = 2.92 moles

So 2.92 moles of HF would be produced if you reacted 2.42 moles of F2.
