In the reaction below, 7.0 mol of NO and 5.0 mol of O₂ are reacted together. The reaction generates 3.7 mol of NO₂. What is the percent yield for the reaction? 2 NO (g) + O₂ (g) → 2 NO₂ (g)
Added by Mark K.
Step 1
The balanced chemical equation tells us that 2 moles of NO react with 1 mole of O₂ to produce 2 moles of NO₂. So, if we have 7.0 moles of NO, theoretically we could produce 7.0 moles of NO₂. However, we only have 5.0 moles of O₂, which could theoretically Show more…
