Nitric acid is produced commercially by the Ostwald process. In the first step ammonia is oxidized to nitric oxide:
4NH3(g) +502 (9) → 4NO(g) + 6H₂O(g)
Assume this reaction is carried out in the apparatus diagramed below.
0+0
3.00 L NH3
0.500 atm
1.50 L 0₂
1.50 atm
The stopcock between the two reaction containers is opened, and the reaction proceeds using proper catalysts. Calculate the partial pressure of NO after the reaction is complete. Assume
100% yield for the reaction, assume the final container volume is 4.50 L, and assume the temperature is constant.
Partial pressure of NO =
atm
