238 g

Explanation:

#NH_3+3/4O_2 =1/2N_2+3/2H_2O#

As guided by the above equation, we see 1 mole #"NH"_3# produces 1.5 moles of water.

Hence #"150 g NH"_3 =150/17 "mol NH"_3# produces #150/17*1.5# moles #"H"_2"O"# which will have a mass #150/17*1.5 × "molar mass of H"_2"O"#

#=150/17*1.5*18=238#
