Ammonia gas is synthesized according to the balanced equation below. N2 (g) + 3 H2 (g) → 2 NH3 (g) If 2.75 L N2 react with 7.75 L H2, what is the theoretical yield (in liters) of NH3?
Volumes of reactants and products are assumed to be measured at the same temperature and pressure.
(Should I convert the liters into grams to determine theoretical yield or should I leave them as they are?)

1 Answer
The balanced equation of the gaseous reaction given is
As per the reaction stochiometry we see that the gaseous ractants and products are in the following mole ratio
Hence to maintain that ratio the
But the volume of
