Question

Nitrogen dioxide, a major air pollutant, can be produced by the combustion of nitrogen oxide as shown. 2NO + O2 Right arrow. 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?

Answer 1

The percentage yield of nitrogen dioxide is 65.217%.

- The reaction of production of nitrogen dioxide from nitrogen oxide is given as:

2 NO + O₂ → 2 NO₂

⇒ 60 g nitrogen oxide will produce 92 g nitrogen dioxide.

⇒ 60 kg nitrogen oxide will produce 92 kg nitrogen dioxide.

⇒ 1500 kg nitrogen oxide will produce 2300 kg nitrogen dioxide.

- So percentage yield = (Actual yield / Expected yield) × 100

⇒ % yield = (1500/2300) × 100

⇒ % yield = 65.217 %
