Question

Given this chemical equation 2N₂O → 4NO₂ + O₂, if 6 moles of N₂O are consumed, then 3 moles of O₂ are produced.

a.True
b.False

Answer 1

If 6 moles of N₂O are consumed, the resulting products would be 12 moles of NO₂ and 3 moles of O₂.

Step-by-step explanation:

The chemical equation you provided is 2N₂O → 4NO₂ + O₂. According to the coefficients in the balanced equation, for every 2 moles of N₂O consumed, 4 moles of NO₂ and 1 mole of O₂ are produced. Therefore, if 6 moles of N₂O are consumed, the resulting products would be 12 moles of NO₂ and 3 moles of O₂. So the statement is false, as 3 moles of O₂ are produced, not consumed.
