Question
4mol of a mixture containing one mol each of LiNO3,NaNO3,Ca(NO3)2 and Mg(NO3)2 is decomposed by strongly heating the total number of moles of NO2 evolved is (assuming complete decomposition of all the salts.)

Solution
2LiNO3Δ⟶Li2O+2NO2+12O2
1 mol of LiNO3 will produce NO2=1 2Mg(NO3)2Δ⟶2MgO+4NO2+O2
1 mol of Mg (NO3)2 will produce NO2=2 2Ca(NO3)2Δ⟶2CaO+4NO2+O2
1 mol of Ca(NO3)2 will produce NO2=2 2NaNO3Δ⟶2NaNO2+O2 ∴ Total number of moles of NO2 produced = 5
