According to the following reaction, how many moles of dinitrogen
monoxide will be formed upon the complete reaction of 0.192 moles

ammonium nitrate?
ammonium nitrate (aq)
>dinitrogen monoxide (g) +
water (1)

…moles dinitrogen monoxide

0.192 mol N₂O

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced equation

NH₄NO₃(aq) ⇒ N₂O(g) + 2 H₂O(l)

Step 2: Establish the appropriate molar ratio

According to the balanced equation, the molar ratio of NH₄NO₃ to N₂O is 1:1.

Step 3: Calculate the number of moles of N₂O formed upon complete reaction of 0.192 moles of NH₄NO₃

We will use the previously established molar ratio.

0.192 mol NH₄NO₃ × 1 mol N₂O/1 mol NH₄NO₃ = 0.192 mol N₂O
