Chapter 4, Problem 4.2P

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The mass of ${\text{HNO}}_{\text{3}}$ , in $\text{kg}$ , that will form the given amount of ${\text{NO}}_{\text{2}}$ pollutant is to be calculated.

Concept introduction: Nitric acid is the component of acid rain which forms when nitrogen dioxide reacts with oxygen and water.

The mass of the compound is calculated by the formula,

$\text{Mass}=\text{Moles}\times \text{Molar}\text{mass}$

To determine: The mass of ${\text{HNO}}_{\text{3}}$ , in $\text{kg}$ , that can will the given amount of ${\text{NO}}_{\text{2}}$ pollutant.
