Lithium and nitrogen react to produce lithium nitride: 6Li (s) + N₂(g) → 2Li₃N (s)
How many moles of lithium nitride are produced when 0.330 mol of lithium react in this fashion?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

According to the balanced chemical equation, 6 moles of lithium react with nitrogen to produce 2 moles of lithium nitride. Therefore, 0.330 moles of lithium would produce (0.330 moles Li * 2 moles Li3N / 6 moles Li) = 0.110 moles of lithium nitride.
