Chemistry problem please help ...?

Urea, NH2CONH2, is a nitrogen fertilizer that is manufactured from ammonia and carbon dioxide. Write and balance the equation for the formation of aqueous urea and liquid water from gaseous ammonia and carbon dioxide and use it to determine the volume of ammonia at 25 ºC and 1.5 atm needed to produce 1.0 lb of urea. Thank you so much

1. 2 NH3 + CO2 = NH2CONH2 + H2O mass urea = 453.5 g moles = 453.6 g / 60.0554 g/mol=7.55 moles NH3 = 7.55 x 2 =15.1 V = 15.1 x 0.08206 x 298 K / 1.5 =246 L
