How do you write a balanced chemical equation for the reaction in which dinitrogen pentoxide gas reacts with water to produce nitric acid? if 208.48 of dinitrogen pentoxide reacts with excess water, how many moles of nitric acid can be produced

a)  

b)  3.8608 moles

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. Thus the mass of products has to be equal to the mass of reactants. The number of atoms of each element has to be same on reactant and product side. Thus chemical equations are balanced.

The balanced reaction for dinitrogen pentoxide gas with water to produce nitric acid is:

According to stoichiometry:-

As nitric acid is the limiting reagent as it limits the formation of product.

1 mole of gives = 2 moles of

Thus 1.9304 moles  of give = moles of

Thus 3.8608 moles of can be produced.

metals are good conductor of electricity. it has free electrons on their surface. according to electron pool theory, each atom present in a metal crystal losses all of its valence electron and as a result a pool of free is form. these pool of electrons are free to move and   conduct electricity easily   while making metal as good conductor.

the correct answer is a. the ability of electrons to flow throughout the metal.
