Chapter 3, Problem 80E
One of the steps in the commercial procas for converting ammonia to nitric acid is the conversion of NH3 to NO:
4 NH3 (g) + 5 O2 (g) -> 4 NO(g) + 6 H2O(g)
In a certain experiment, 2.00 g of NH3 reacts with 2.50 g of O2.
a. Which is the limiting reactant?
b. How many grams of No and H20 form?
c. How many grams of the excess reactant remain after the limiting reactant is completely consumed?
d. Show that your calculations in parts (b) and (c) are consistent with the law of conservation of mass

4. The depletion of ozone (O3) in the stratosphere has been a matter of great concern among scientists in recent years. It is believed that ozone can react with nitric oxide (NO) that is discharged from high altitude planes. The reaction is
O3 + NO à O2 + NO2
If 7.40 g of O3 reacts with 0.670 g of NO,
a) Which compound will be the limiting reagent?
b) How many grams of NO2 will be produced? g (3 decimal places)
c) Calculate the number of moles of the excess reagent remaining at the end of the reaction. mol (4 decimal places)
