The depletion of ozone (O) in the stratosphere has been a matter of great concern among scientists in recent years. It is believed that ozone can react with nitric oxide
(NO) that is discharged from high altitude planes. The reaction is
0, + NO → 0, +NO,
If 7.40 g of O, reacts with 0.670 g of NO,
a)
b)
Which compound will be the limiting reagent?
How many grams of NO, will be produced?
Calculate the number of moles of the excess reagent remaining at the end
of the reaction.
