Nitrogen dioxide, a major air pollutant, can be produced by the combustion of nitrogen oxide as shown. 2NO + O2 mc026-1.jpg 2NO2 In a plant, 1,500 kg of nitrogen oxide is consumed per day to produce 1,500 kg of nitrogen dioxide per day. What is the percent yield?

Hello!

The percent yield of the combustion of Nitrogen Oxide in the plant is 65,22%

The chemical equation for the reaction is:

2NO + O₂ → 2NO₂

To calculate the percent yield we need to calculate the theoretical yield, using the following conversion factor:

[tex]1500 kg NO* \frac{1000 g NO}{1 kg NO}* \frac{1 mol NO}{30 g NO}* \frac{2 mol NO_2}{2 mol NO}* \frac{46 g NO_2}{1 mol NO_2}* \frac{1 kg}{1000 g} \\ \\ = 2300 kg NO_2 [/tex]

Now we use the following equation to calculate the percent yield:

[tex]\% yield= \frac{Actual Yield}{Theoretical Yield}*100= \frac{1500 kg}{2300 kg}*100=65,22 \% [/tex]

Have a nice day!
