Calculate the volume of ammonia that can be obtained from a 10 L portion of nitrogen

Calculate the volume of ammonia that can be obtained from a 10 L portion of nitrogen, if the product yield during the synthesis is 16% of the theoretically possible.

The ammonia synthesis reaction is described by the following chemical equation:

3H2 + N2 = 2NH3;

From one mole of nitrogen, you can theoretically get 2 moles of ammonia.

If nitrogen takes up 10 liters, then the ammonia obtained from it will take up a volume of 10 x 2 = 20 liters.

Since the yield of the product during the synthesis will be 16% of the theoretically possible, the volume of ammonia will be obtained:

V NH3 = 10 x 2 x 0.16 = 3.2 liters.
