Answer 1

35 g (Rounded to the nearest tenth) H₂O can be made when 5.8 moles of HNO₃ are consumed.

What is Mole ratio ?

Mole Ratio is a conversion factor between compounds in a chemical reaction, that is derived from the coefficients of the compounds in a balanced equation.

The mole ratio is therefore used to convert between quantities of compounds in a chemical reaction.

The mole ratio of HNO₃ and H₂O is 6 : 2

Hence, 16.9 moles of HNO₃ will produce = 2/6 × 5.8 = 1.93 moles of H₂O

Also,

Mass = Moles × M.Mass

Mass = 1.93 mol × 18.02 g/mol

Mass = 34.83 g H₂O

         = 35 g (Rounded to the nearest tenth)
