In Ostwald's process for the manufacture...

In Ostwald's process for the manufacture of nitric acid, the first step involves the oxidation of ammonia gas by oxygen gas to give nitric oxide gas and steam. What is the maximum weight of nitric oxide that can obtained starting only with `10.00 g` of ammonia and `20.00 g` of oxygen?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The balanced equation for the reaction is
`4NH_(3)(g)+5O_(2)overset(1100K)underset(pt)rarr 4 NO(g)+6H_(2)O(g)`
here 68 g of `NH_(3)` will react with `O_(2)=160 g`
`therefore` 10g of `NH_(3)` will react with `O_(2) =160/160xx20-=15g`
