Chapter 14, Problem 14.24QP

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

To determine: The balanced chemical equation for the conversion of ${\text{N}}_{\text{2}}\text{O}$ to ${\text{NO}}_{\text{2}}$ in the presence of ${\text{O}}_{\text{2}}$.

Interpretation: The balanced chemical equation for the conversion of ${\text{N}}_{\text{2}}\text{O}$ to ${\text{NO}}_{\text{2}}$ in the presence of ${\text{O}}_{\text{2}}$ is to be stated.

Concept introduction: The chemical equation that has equal number of atoms and equal amount of charges on both the sides of the equation is termed as balanced chemical equation.

(b)
