How much potassium nitrate do i need to make 21g of nitric acid?

It takes 0.333 mol (33.7 g) of KNO₃ to make 21 g of HNO₃.

KNO₃ reacts with concentrated H₂SO₄ to produce HNO₃ and KHSO₄.

(balanced.)

Each mole formula unit of KNO₃ reacts with excess H₂SO₄ to produce one mole of HNO₃. In other words, it takes the same number formula units of KNO₃ to produce a certain number of moles of HNO₃.
