Question

Nitric acid is produced commercially by the Ostwald process. In the first step ammonia is oxidized to nitric oxide:

4NH₃ (g) + 5O₂ (g) → 4NO (g) + 6H₂O (g)

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% tield for the reaction, assume the final container volume is 3.00 L, and assume the temperature is constant.

Assume this reaction is carried out in the apparatus diagramed below.
2.00 L NH3
0.500 atm
1.00 L O2
1.50 atm
