Nitrogen monoxide reacts with oxygen according to the following reaction: 2NO(g)+ O₂(g)→ 2NO₂(g)If 12 moles of nitrogen monoxide are combined with 10 moles of oxygen, how many moles of NO₂ should form?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The balanced equation shows a 2:1:2 ratio for NO:O2:NO2. With 12 moles of NO and 10 moles of O2, NO is the limiting reactant. Thus, 12 moles of NO will produce 12 moles of NO2.
