Answer:
53.7 grams of HNO3 will be produced
Explanation:
Step 1: Data given
Mass of NO2 = 59.0 grams
Molar mass NO2 = 46.0 g/mol
Step 2: The balanced equation
3NO2 + H2O→ 2HNO3 + NO
Step 3: Calculate moles NO2
Moles NO2 = 59.0 grams / 46.0 g/mol
Moles NO2 = 1.28 moles
Step 4: Calculate moles HNO3
For 3 moles NO2 we need 1 mol H2O to produce 2 moles HNO3 and 1 mol NO
For 1.28 moles NO2 we'll have 2/3 * 1.28 =0.853 moles HNO3
Step 7: Calculate mass HNO3
Mass HNO3 = 0.853 moles * 63.01 g/mol
Mass HNO3 = 53.7 grams
53.7 grams of HNO3 will be produced
It depends on the type of decay that is taking place if its a β+ it will decay into Mn-52 β- decays into Co-59
In easy words the connection between Reactants, Products and Limiting reactants is as follow,
Reactants and Products:
Reactants are the starting materials for the synthesis of final synthesized materials called as products.
Example:
CH₄ + 2 O₂ → CO₂ + 2 H₂O
In above reaction Methane (CH₄) and Oxygen (O₂) are the reactants while, CO₂ and H₂O are the products.
Reactants, Products and Limiting Reactants:
Considering the same example it is seen that for one mole of CO₂ two moles of O₂ are required to completely convert into CO₂ and H₂O. If either of the reactant is taken less than the required amount then it will act as a limiting reactant because it will consume first leaving the second reactant present in excess as compare to it. Hence, we can say that the limiting reactant is the starting material which controls the amount of product being formed.
