Chemistry Question on Some basic concepts of chemistry

NO reacts with O2O_2 to form NO2NO_2. When 10 g of NO2NO_2 is formed during the reaction, the mass of O2O_2 consumed is

A

1.90 g

B

5.0 g

C

3.48 g

D

13.9 g

Answer

3.48 g

Explanation

Solution

2NO+ \underset{\text{32 g}}{ {O_{2}}}\to \underset{\text{2 \times 46 g}}{ {2 NO_{2}}} 92gNO292\,g \, NO_{2} uses O2=32gO_{2}=32\,g 10gNO2\therefore 10\,g \,NO_{2} uses O2=3.48gO_{2}=3.48\,g
