Question
In the reaction N₂(g) + 3H₂(g) → 2NH₃(g), if you have 1 molecule of N₂ and 5 molecules of H₂, how many molecules of excess reagent remain?
Correct Answer
Option B is the correct answer.
Detailed Explanation
The reaction requires 3 molecules of H₂ for 1 molecule of N₂. With 5 molecules H₂ available, 5 - 3 = 2 molecules of H₂ remain as excess reagent.
