Refer to the following equation: 4NH3(g)+7O2(g)=4NO2(g)+6H2O(g). How many molecules of NO2 are produced when 5.38 mil of ammonia is completely reacted? Refer to the following equation: 4NH3(g)+7O2(g)=4NO2(g)+6H2O(g). How many molecules of NO2 are produced when 5.38 mil of ammonia is completely reacted? Refer to the following equation: 4NH3(g)+7O2(g)=4NO2(g)+6H2O(g). How many molecules of NO2 are produced when 5.38 mil of ammonia is completely reacted? Refer to the following equation: 4NH3(g)+7O2(g)=4NO2(g)+6H2O(g). How many molecules of NO2 are produced when 5.38 mil of ammonia is completely reacted?Explanation / Answer
Given : mol NH3 = 5.38 mol
Reaction :
4 NH3 + 7 O2 ------------ > 4 NO2 (g) + 6 H2O g)
Here we use stoichiometric equivalence
4 mol NH3 produces 3 mol NO2
We have to calculate moles of NO3 produced from 5.38 moles of NH3
Conversion factor is : (4 mol NO2 / 4 mol NH3 )
Lets use this to get moles of NO2 from 5.38 moles of NH3
= 5.38 mol NH3 * 4 mol NO2 / 4 mol NH3
= 5.38 mol NO2
Ans: 5.38 mol NO2 are produced
