Question

Given the reaction: 4NH3 + 502 4NO + 6H2O

What is the total number of moles of NO produced when
1.0 mole of O2 is completely consumed?

Answer 1

Answer: 0.80 mole

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

`(4)/(5)` moles

Step-by-step explanation:

The reaction equation is given as:

4NH₃ + 5O₂ → 4NO + 6H₂O

The number of moles of O₂ that completely reacted is given as 1 mole

To solve this problem, we are going to use a stoichiometric approach from the balanced reaction equation:

5 moles of O₂ will react completely to produce 4 moles of NO

1 mole of O₂ will therefore react to produce x mole of NO

5x = 4

x =
`(4)/(5)` moles of NO
