**Problem Statement:**
What is the mass in grams of NO that can be formed from 2.18 moles of NO₂ in the reaction below?
\[ 3 \, \text{NO}_2 \, (g) + \text{H}_2\text{O} \, (g) \rightarrow 2 \, \text{HNO}_3 \, (g) + \text{NO} \, (g) \]
**Explanation:**
To determine the mass of NO that can be formed from 2.18 moles of NO₂, we need to follow these steps:
1. **Identify the Stoichiometry of the Reaction:**
- According to the balanced chemical equation, 3 moles of NO₂ produce 1 mole of NO.
2. **Calculate Moles of NO Produced:**
- From 2.18 moles of NO₂, using the stoichiometry of the reaction (3 moles of NO₂ produce 1 mole of NO),
\[
\text{Moles of NO} = \frac{2.18 \, \text{moles of NO}_2}{3} = 0.7267 \, \text{moles of NO}
\]
3. **Calculate the Mass of NO:**
- The molar mass of NO (Nitric Oxide) is approximately 30.01 g/mol.
- Therefore, the mass of NO is calculated as:
\[
\text{Mass of NO} = 0.7267 \, \text{moles} \times 30.01 \, \text{g/mol} \approx 21.8 \, \text{g}
\]
Thus, the mass of NO that can be formed from 2.18 moles of NO₂ is approximately 21.8 grams.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F75c7225b-0db1-4c1a-927e-b9120981a291%2F5caae872-119a-45a9-93cf-791f09bbc88c%2Fm5o3la_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
