Suppose you were tasked with producing some nitrogen monoxide (a.k.a. nitric oxide). I'm sure this is often requested of you. You can do it by combusting ammonia (be careful!). The equation would be as follows: 4NH3 + 5O2 → 4NO + 6H2O. If you form 2 mol of water, how much NO forms? A. 1.33 mol. B. 2.57 mol. C. 3.86 mol. D. 2.29 mol.

Ammonia reacts with O2 to form either NO or NO2 according to the unbalanced equations shown below: NH3 + O2 → NO + H2O NH3 + O2 → NO2 + H2O In an experiment, 5 mol NH3 and 12.6 mol O2 are intially placed in a closed flask. After the reaction all the NH3 has reacted and 5.5 mol O2 remain. Calculate the number of moles of NO in the flask after reaction. Round your answer to two significant figures.

When ammonia reacts with oxygen, nitrogen monoxide and water are produced. The balanced equation for this reaction is: 4NH3 (g) + 5O2 (g) → 4NO (g) + 6H2O (g) If 16 moles of ammonia react, the reaction consumes 20 moles of oxygen. The reaction produces 16 moles of nitrogen monoxide and 24 moles of water.
