For the reaction given below, how many moles of nitrogen monoxide will form if we start with 4.7 moles of oxygen?
4 NH3 + 5 O2 → 4 NO + 6 H2O
Expert Answer
moles of NO produced…
first, identify the reactants:
mol of O2 = 4.7
note that
5 mol of O2 produces = 4 mol of NO
so
4.7 mol of O2 should produce = 4/5*4.7 = 3.76 mol of NO
then
the answer is 3.76 mol of Nitrogen Monoxide will be produced from 4.7 mol fo O2
