35.0 grams of nitrogen gas reacts with 60.0 grams of hydrogen gas: N2 + 3H2--> 2NH3 a) Identify the limiting reagent:
b) Calculate the grams of ammonia formed:
c) Calculate the grams of excess reactant formed:

Explanation:

Moles of N2 = 35.0g / (28g/mol) = 1.25mol

Moles of H2 = 60.0g / (2g/mol) = 30.0mol

Since 1.25mol * 3 < 30.0mol, nitrogen is limiting.

Moles of NH3 = 1.25mol * 2 = 2.50mol.

Mass of NH3 = 2.50mol * (17g/mol) = 42.5g.

30.0mol - 1.25mol * 3 = 26.25mol.

Excess mass of H2

= 26.25mol * (2g/mol) = 52.5g.

put the answers   and i could answer.

the answer is b because, investigating whether another species of moth also drinks tears might be interesting, but it would not directly explain why this species of moth does.

to explain why this species of moth drinks tears, the scientist could ask: "what nutrients that moths need are in elephant tears? "

the scientist could experiment with moth repellent or oter ways to keep the moths away, but that would not answer his original question.
