Explanation / Answer

Question 1.

The reaction:

2 NO(g) + 5 H2(g) 2 NH3(g) + 2 H2O(g)

if there are 4 species, then we can relate as follow: (remember that we cant repeat ratios)

That is,

5 H2 = 2NH3; is the same as 5/2H2 = NH3 or H2 = 2/5*NH3

then, knowing this

For NO:

NO = H2; NH3, H2O (3x)

meaning that we can relate NO to all other 3

Then, choose H2,

H2 = NH3, H2O (2x)

Note that we cant repeat NO, so only 2 x

Finally; only left:

NH3 = H2O ( 1x)

total ratios = 3+2+1 = 6
