If 19*mol19mol of H_2(g)H2(g) react with stoichiometric N_2(g)N2(g), what molar quantity of ammonia results?

A bit under 13*mol13mol of ammonia..........

Explanation:

You have the stoichiometric equation........

N_2(g) + 3H_2(g) stackrel("catalysis")rarr2NH_3(g)N2(g)+3H2(g)catalysis−−−2NH3(g)

And clearly, if 19*mol19mol dihydrogen react completely (which is NOT an altogether probable outcome) then by the stoichiometry we get 19/3xx2*mol=12.7*mol193×2mol=12.7mol with respect to ammonia, NH_3NH3.......

What is the significance of this ammonia synthesis? Do you think that this reaction is widely performed?
