Chemical Process Calculation Questions and Answers – Stoichiometry-II

This set of Chemical Process Calculation Multiple Choice Questions & Answers (MCQs) focuses on “Stoichiometry-II”.

1. In the reaction a NH3 + b O2 → c NO2 + d H2O, what is the balanced value of a (the coefficient for NH3)?
a) 2
b) 4
c) 6
d) 8
View Answer

Answer: a
Explanation: The reaction is balanced by setting a = 4 to ensure both nitrogen and hydrogen atoms are accounted for.

2. For the reaction a NH3 + b O2 → c NO2 + d H2O, what is the balanced value of b (the coefficient for O2)?
a) 1.5
b) 2.5
c) 3.5
d) 4.5
View Answer

Answer: c
Explanation: To balance oxygen atoms, we find that b = 3.5 provides the correct ratio.

3. In the reaction a NH3 + b O2 → c NO2 + d H2O, what is the balanced value of c (the coefficient for NO2)?
a) 2
b) 4
c) 6
d) 8
View Answer

Answer: a
Explanation: Balancing nitrogen atoms requires that c = 4 to match the number of nitrogen atoms on both sides of the equation.

4. In the balanced reaction a NH3 + b O2 → c NO2 + d H2O, what is the balanced value of d (the coefficient for H2O)?
a) 1
b) 2
c) 3
d) 4
View Answer

Answer: c
Explanation: Balancing hydrogen atoms shows that d = 6 to provide an equal number of hydrogen atoms on both sides of the equation.
