Nitric oxide (NO) reacts with oxygen gas to produce nitrogen dioxide. A gaseous mixture contains 0.66 g of nitric oxide and 0.58 g of oxygen gas. After the reaction is complete, what mass of nitrogen dioxide is formed? Which reactant is in excess? How do you know? Suppose you actually recovered 0.91 g of nitrogen dioxide. What is your percent yield?

Answer:

NO is the limiting reagent.  

In this reaction 0.886 mole of NO2 is produced

Explanation:

The chemical equation for this reaction is  

2NO(g) + O2(g) → 2NO2(g)

In this limiting reagent reaction, 2 moles of NO reacts with one mole of O2  to produce 2 mole of 2NO2

0.886 mole of NO * (2 mole of NO2/2 mole of NO) = 0.886 mole of NO2

0.503 mole of O2 * (1 mole of NO2/1 mole of O2) = 1.01 mole of NO2

Hence, NO is the limiting reagent.  

In this reaction 0.886 mole of NO2 is produced
