Answer: 0.050 moles of nitrogen monoxide are produced by 0.050 moles of ammonia.
Explanation:
According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. Thus the mass of products has to be equal to the mass of reactants. The number of atoms of each element has to be same on reactant and product side. Thus chemical equations are balanced.
The balanced chemical reaction is:
According to stoichiometry:
4 moles of ammonia produce = 4 moles of nitrogen monoxide
Thus 0.050 moles of ammonia produce = moles of nitrogen monoxide
Answer: The correct option is 2.
Explanation: Group 15 elements are Nitrogen, phosphorous, Arsenic, Antimony, Bismuth.
To know whether an element exits as a diatomic molecule or not, we look at the atomicity of an element.
Atomicity is the number of atoms of an element combining to form a molecule.
Atomicity of Nitrogen = 2
Atomicity of Phosphorous = 4
Atomicity of Bismuth = 1
Atomicity of Arsenic = 1
The element having atomicity 2 will exist as a diatomic molecule.
Hence, Nitrogen is a diatomic molecule
