Given reaction for the formation of ammonia-
N2​+3H2​⟶2NH3​
From the above reacton,
1 mole of N2​ reacts with 3 moles of H2​.
Therefore,
6 moles of N2​ will react with 18 moles of H2​.
Given amount of H2​=6 moles
Therefore, H2​ is the limiting reagent.
Therefore,
Again from the above reaction.
No. of moles of ammonia formed when 3 moles of H2​ react with excess of N2​=2
∴ No. of moles of ammonia formed when 6 moles of H2​ react with excess of N2​=32​×6=4 moles
Hence 4 moles of ammonia are formed when 6 moles of N2​ react with 6 moles of H2​.
