Question

Nitric acid can be produced by NH3 in three steps process:
(i)4NH3(g)+5O2(g)4NO(g)+6H2O(g)
(ii)2NO(g)+O2(g)2NO2(g)
(iii)3NO2(g)+H2O(l)2HNO3(aq)+NO(g)
% yield of i,ii and iii are 50%,60% and 80% respectively, then what volume of NH3(g) at 1atm and 0C required to produce 1575g of HNO3?

Solution

The correct option is C 3500
Moles of NO2 required=(157563)×32×10.8=46.875.
Moles of NO required=46.8750.60.
Moles of NH3 required=46.8750.60×10.50=156.25.
Volume of NH3 at STP required=156.25×22.4=3500L.
