Chapter 3, Problem 74E

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The mass of ${\text{NH}}_3$ used to produce $1.00\times {10}^6\text{kg}$

  ${\text{HNO}}_3$ is to be calculated.

Concept introduction: In chemistry, the theory which is generally utilized to obtain chemical species’ amounts is stoichiometry. This calculation requires balanced chemical equations. Stoichiometric coefficients from the respective species are associated to evaluate their moles which can further be converted to their mass via molar mass.
