Acid rain can be destructive to both the natural environment and human-made structures. The equation below shows a
reaction that occurs that may lead to the formation of acid rain.
3NO2 + H2O → 2HNO3 + NO
How many moles (precise to the nearest 0.01 mol) of nitric acid are produced from 300.00 mol of nitrogen dioxide?
O 200.00 mol
200.09 mol
450.00 mol
O 450.02 mol

Answer:

200.00 mol        

Explanation:

Given data:

Moles of nitric acid produced = ?

Moles of nitrogen dioxide = 300.00 mol

Solution:

Chemical equation:

3NO₂ + H₂O  →  2HNO₃ + NO

Now we will compare the moles of nirtic acid with nitrogen dioxide.

                NO₂            :               HNO₃

                   3              :                  2

               300.00       :                 2/3×300 = 199.99 mol

Nearest to 0.01:

200.00 mol
