For the reaction CH₄(g)+ 4 NO(g)$\to$ 2 N₂(g)+ CO₂(g)+ 2 H₂O(g),the rate of the production of water is __________ that of the rate of consumption of NO.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Looking at the balanced chemical equation, we see that the coefficient of NO is 4 and the coefficient of water is 1. Therefore, for every four moles of NO consumed, one mole of water is produced. This means that the rate of consumption of NO is four times the rate of production of water. Thus, the answer is B, half.
