Question

1.) The illustration on the left represents a mixture of N2 (blue) molecules and O2 (red) molecules.If these were to react to form NO2 molecules, what is the maximum number of NO2 molecules that could form?

Answer 1

In this question, we need to write the total number of molecules of NO2 formed from the given amount of N2 and O2 molecules, and in the question we have:

4 N2 and 2 O2

The complete and balanced equation for this reaction is:

N2 + 2 O2 --> 2 NO2

Which means that with 2 O2 molecules, we will produce 2 NO2 molecules

The answer will be 2 NO2 molecules
