Chapter 11, Problem 11.80QP

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The volume in liters of ${\text{NO}}_{\text{2}}$ produced has to be calculated.

Concept Introduction:

This is a gas stoichiometry problem that requires knowledge of Avogadro’s law to solve.

Avogadro’s law states that the volume of a sample of gas at constant temperature and pressure is directly proportional to the number of moles.

$\begin{array}{l}\text{V }\text{=}{\text{K}}_{\text{3}}\text{n}\text{or}\\ \frac{\text{V}}{\text{n}}\text{=}{\text{K}}_{\text{3}}\left(\text{at constant temperature and pressure}\right)\end{array}$

Avogadro’s law, the volume of a sample of gas is directly proportional to the number of moles.
