Quizplus · Accepted Answer

From the balanced equation, we can see that for every mole of N₂(g) and 3 moles of H₂(g) used up, we will produce 2 moles of NH₃(g). This means that the total number of moles of gas in the balloon will remain the same. Therefore, the volume of the balloon after the reaction is complete will also be 1.00 L. Thus, the correct choice is B.
