macro for sumif formula

I currently have an excel document that uses the sumif formula. Currently, it
checks column E for a specific word (in this case "Hydrogen") It then takes
all the rows with "hydrogen" and adds up the numbers in the N column for
those respective rows.

My problem is that I need to turn this process into a macro rather than
relying on a formula. Any direction on how to code this? I know it should be
fairly simple but I'm a VBA novice.

Thanks in advance!

Sub MySumif()
Range("A1") = Application.SumIf(Range("E:E"), "Hydrogen", Range("N:N"))
End mySumif

You could change "Hydrogen" to reference a cell e.g. X1

Range("A1") = Application.SumIf(Range("E:E"), Range("X1"),Range("N:N"))
