Consider the following reaction: 3NO₂(g)+ H₂O(l)→ 2HNO₃(l)+ NO(g)How many moles of NO₂ are required to react with 1.50 moles of H₂O to form 3.00 moles of HNO₃?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The balanced chemical equation shows that 3 moles of $NO_2$ react with 1 mole of $H_2O$ to form 2 moles of $HNO_3$ and 1 mole of $NO$. To produce 3 moles of $HNO_3$, 1.5 times the stoichiometric amounts are needed, meaning 1.5 times 3 moles of $NO_2$, which equals 4.5 moles of $NO_2$.
