Question

Nitrogen monoxide gas is obtained by the reaction of nitrogen gas and oxygen gas .
Write a balanced chemical equation for this reaction

Answer 1

Answer:

N2 (g) + O2 (g) → 2NO (g) is the balanced equation

Answer 2

$\boxed{\sf{\red{\large{N_{2} + O_{2} \overset{\Delta }\longrightarrow 2NO}}}}$

This is the balanced chemical equation involving the reaction of Nitrogen gas and Oxygen gas leading to the formation of Nitrogen Monoxide gas.

As per the balanced Equation:

• 1 mole of Nitrogen reacts with 1 mole of Oxygen in presence of heat to produce 2 moles of Nitrogen Monoxide.

• This is the only method to produce an oxides of Nitrogen by heating procedure.

The reaction environment temperature has to be atleast 2000 K to produce Nitrogen Monoxide.
