Question

Calculate the number of gams of nitrogen dioxide that are produced from 4 moles of nitric oxide

Answer 1

Answer: 184 g of nitrogen dioxide that are produced from 4 moles of nitric oxide

Explanation:

The balanced chemical reaction is:

$2NO(g)+O_2(g)\rightarrow 2NO_2(g)$  

According to stoichiometry :

2 moles of $NO$ produce = 2 moles of $NO_2$

Thus 4 moles of $NO$ will require=$\frac{2}{2}\times 4=4moles$  of $NO_2$

Mass of $NO_2=moles\times {\text {Molar mass}}=4moles\times 46g/mol=184g$

Thus 184 g of nitrogen dioxide that are produced from 4 moles of nitric oxide
