Nitrogen gas reacts with hydrogen gas to form ammonia:
N2+3H2→2NH3
If you start with 2.0 mol N2 and 3.0 mol H2, which reactant is limiting?
Hydrogen (H₂) is the limiting reactant.
If a reaction absorbs heat from the surroundings, is it endothermic or exothermic?
Endothermic
Endothermic = heat goes IN to the system from the surroundings.
Name the compound: NaNO₃

Na
If 3.0 mol H2 is limiting, how many moles of ammonia (NH₃) will form?
3H2→2NH3
2.0 mol NH3
In an exothermic reaction, does the temperature of the surroundings increase or decrease?

A gas occupies 2.50 L at 1.00 atm. If pressure increases to 2.50 atm at constant temperature, what is the new volume?
(hint: Boyle's Law)
V2=1.00 L
(1.00)(2.50)=(2.50)(V2)⇒V2=1.00 L
Magnesium reacts with oxygen:
2Mg+O2→2MgO
You have 12.2 g Mg and 10.0 g O₂.
How many grams of MgO can be produced?
Mg: 0.50 mol
O: 0.3125 mol
For 0.50 mol Mg, we require 0.25 mol O₂ → we have 0.3125 mol of O, so Mg is limiting.
Answer: 20.2 g MgO
