Solution
The correct option is B 44.8 L The balanced reaction is: N2+3H2→2NH3
Thus, one mole of nitrogen reacts with 3 moles of hydrogen. We are provided with 1 mole of nitrogen and 4 moles of hydrogen. Hence, nitrogen is the limiting agent.
Again, 1 mole of nitrogen gives 2 moles of ammonia. Volume of ammonia formed at STP = 2×22.4 L= 44.8 L
