Answer:
[tex]\large \boxed{\text{0.44 g}}[/tex]
Explanation:
1. Calculate the molar mass of ammonia
1 N = 1 × 14.01 g = 14.01 g
3 H = 3 × 1.008 g = 3.024
TOTAL = 17.03 g
2. Calculate the mass of hydrogen
So, there are 3.024 g of H in17.03 g of NH₃.
The conversion factor is either
[tex]\dfrac{\text{3.024 g H}}{\text{17.03 g NH}_{3}} \text{ or } \dfrac{\text{17.03 g NH}_{3}}{\text{3.024 g H}}[/tex]
We want to find grams of H, so we choose the one with grams of H on top.
[tex]\text{Mass of H} = \text{2.5 g NH}_{3} \times \dfrac{\text{3.024 g H}}{\text{17.03 g NH}_{3}} = \textbf{0.44 g H}\\\\\text{The mass of H is $\large \boxed{\textbf{0.44 g}}$}[/tex]
