To prevent the hydrolysis and to catalyse the reaction.
Explanation:
- Sulphuric acid is the catalyst and also a dehydrating agent in this reaction.
- Sulphuric acid is using in redox reaction because sulphuric acid is providing H+ ions which is necessary for this reaction to occur more quickly, but the sulphate ions from the sulphuric acid barely react during this process. So H2SO4 is adding in this reaction to make it more acidic.
- H2SO4 is preventing hydrolysis by providing excess H+ ions into the reaction. H2SO4 is stable towards the direction of oxidation.
a. mol O₂=0.5
b. volume O₂ = 25 cm³
c. i. the total volume of the two reactants = 75 cm³
c. ii. the volume of nitrogen dioxide formed = 50 cm³
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Reaction
2NO(gas) + O₂(gas) ⇒ 2NO₂ (gas)
a.
mol NO = 1
From the equation, mol ratio NO : O₂ = 2 : 1, so mol O₂ :

b.
From Avogadro's hypothesis, at the same temperature and pressure, the ratio of gas volume will be equal to the ratio of gas moles
Because mol ratio NO : O₂ = 2 : 1, so volume O₂ :

c.
i. total volume of reactants : 25 cm³+ 50 cm³=75 cm³
ii. the volume of nitrogen dioxide formed :
mol ratio NO : NO₂ = 2 : 2, so volume NO₂ = volume NO = 50 cm³
