4NO + 3O2 + 2H2O = 2.4 moles of NO 2.4 moles of O2 and 2.4 moles of H2O react and 2.0 moles of HNO3 are recovered from the reaction. what is the percent yield of this reaction ?

83%

Explanation:

Percent yield is 100 times the ratio between actual yield (2.0moles HNO₃) and theoretical yield. To find theoretical yield:

As you can see in the reaction:

4NO + 3O₂ + 2H₂O → 4HNO₃

4 moles of NO are required when 3 moles of O₂ and 2 moles of H₂O reacts. As equal moles of each reactant are added, the limiting reactant is NO because is the substance that requires more moles to react.

2.4 mol NO produce 2.4 mol HNO₃-Because 4 moles of NO produce 4 moles of HNO₃. That means theoretical yield is 2.4 moles and percent yield is:

2.0 moles / 2.4 moles * 100 = 83%

not clear

have a great day because if you dont you and i will be sad
