What volume in liters of carbon monoxide will be required to produce 18.9 L of nitrogen in the reaction below 2co(g) + 2no(g) -> n2(g) + 2co2(g)

37.8 L OF CARBON MONOXIDE IS REQUIRED TO PRODUCE 18.9 L OF NITROGEN.

Explanation:

Equation for the reaction:

2 CO + 2 NO > N2 + 2 CO2

2 moles of carbon monoxide reacts with 2 moles of NO to form 1 mole of nitrogen

At standard temperature and pressure, 1 mole of a gas contains 22.4 dm3 volume.

So therefore, we can say:

2 * 22.4 L of CO produces  22.4 L of N2

44.8 L of CO produces 22.4 L of N2

Since, 18.9 L of Nitrogen is produced, the volume of CO needed is:

44.8 L of CO = 22.4 L of N

x L = 18.9 L

x L = 18.9 * 44.8 / 22.4

x L = 18.9 * 2

x = 37.8 L

The volume of Carbon monoxide required to produce 18.9 L of N2 is 37.8 L
