Answer

$N_2(g)+3H_2(g)\rightarrow 2NH_3(g)$ This is combination.

Work Step by Step

$N_2(g)+H_2(g)\rightarrow NH_3(g)$ This is a combination reaction because two molecules are combining to form a new compound. The ration of N:H in the output is 1:3, so add a coefficient of 3 to $H_2$. $N_2(g)+3H_2(g)\rightarrow NH_3(g)$ Add a coefficient of 2 to $NH_3$ to balance $N$ and $H$.. $N_2(g)+3H_2(g)\rightarrow 2NH_3(g)$
