3.5 moles

Simply write out the mole ratio of the known and unknown components:

$(n(NH_3))/(n(N_2))=2/1$

$n(NH_3)=2n(N_2)=2xx1.75mol=3.5mol$

Using the following reaction, if 1.75 moles of nitrogen gas are reacted with excess hydrogen gas, how many moles of NH_3NH_3 will be produced? N_2 + 3H_2 -> 2NH_3N_2 + 3H_2 -> 2NH_3?
