Nitrogen monoxide is produced by combustion in an automobile engine. For the following reaction, 4.36 grams of nitrogen monoxide are mixed with excess oxygen gas . The reaction yields 5.46 grams of nitrogen dioxide . nitrogen monoxide ( g ) oxygen ( g ) nitrogen dioxide ( g ) What is the theoretical yield of nitrogen dioxide

Explanation:

We have to start with the combustion reaction:

Then we can balance the reaction:

If we want to find the theoretical yield, we have to calculate the amount of . To do this, we have to first convert the 4.36 g of to moles (using the molar mass 30 g/mol), then we have to convert from moles of to moles of (using the molar ratio) finally, we have to convert from moles of to grams of (using the molas mass 46 g/mol), so:

I hope it helps!
