One way to prevent emission of the pollutant NO from industrial plants is by a catalyzed reaction with NH₃:
4NH₃(g) + 4NO(g) + O₂(g) → 4N₂(g) + 6H₂O(g)
(a) If the NO has a partial pressure of 4.5X10⁻⁵ atm in the flue gas, how many liters of NH₃ are needed per liter of flue gas at 1.00 atm?

Respuesta :

4.5 × 10⁻⁵ L of NH₃ are needed per liter of flue gas at 1.00 atm.

What is Balanced Chemical Equation ?

The equation during which the number of atoms on the reactant side is equal to the number of atoms on the product side in an equation is called balanced chemical equation.

The given balanced chemical equation is

4NH₃(g) + 4NO(g) + O₂(g) → 4N₂(g) + 6H₂O(g)

How to find mole fraction ?

To find mole fraction use this expression

P.P = M.F ×  T.P

where,

P.P = Partial Pressure

M.F = Mole Fraction

T.P = Total pressure

Here,

Given flue gas total pressure (T.P) is 1.00 atm

Given NO Partial Pressure (P.P) = 4.5 × 10⁻⁵

Now putting the values we get

P.P = M.F × T.P

4.5 × 10⁻⁵ atm = 1.00 atm × M.F

M.F = 4.5 × 10⁻⁵ L

Thus from the above conclusion we can say that 4.5 × 10⁻⁵ L of NH₃ are needed per liter of flue gas at 1.00 atm.
