At high temperature, oxygen and nitrogen reacts to form nitric oxide (NO), a substance that is toxic even in very small concentrations. For standard air composition (3.76 kmol of N2 per kmol of O2), determine the lowest temperature at which the amount of NO produced exceed 25 (parts per million). ppm
