Chapter 3: Q149CP (page 138)

Nitrogen monoxide reacts with elemental oxygen to form nitrogen dioxide. The scene at right represents an initial mixture of reactants. If the reaction has a 66% yield, which of the scenes below (A, B, or C) best represents the final product mixture?

Short Answer

Expert verified

The circle Bwill represents the final product mixture.

Step by step solution

01

Translating the statement

The chemical equation can be denoted as,

2NO(g)+O2(g)→2NO2(g)

02

Representation for the final product mixture

There are six molecules of NO and three molecules of O2.This will theoretically produce NO2 6 molecules. These reactants will give 4 molecules of NO2 for 66% yield. When 4 molecules of NO2 are produced, and 2 molecules of O2 and 4 molecules of NO are used respectively.There are some unreacted 2 molecules of NO and 1 molecule of O2. The representation of final product mixture is circle B.
