. Nitric acid, HNO3, can be manufactured from ammonia, NH3, by using the three reactions shown below. Step 1: 4 NH3(g) 5 O2(g) 4 NO(g) 6 H2O(l) Step 2: 2 NO(g) O2(g) 2 NO2(g) Step 3: 3 NO2(g) H2O(l) 2 HNO3 + : (aq) + NO(g) + : + : + What is the maximum number of moles of HNO3 that can be obtained from 4.00 moles of NH3? (Assume that the NO produced in step 3 is not recycled back into step 2.) (a) 1.33 mol; (b) 2.00 mol; (c) 2.67 mol; (d) 4.00 mol; (e) 6.00 mol.
