In this equation, stands for carbon, stands for nitrogen, and stands for oxygen. Which equation represents this reaction?


A.) 2CO + 2NO → 2CN2 + O2


B.) CO + NO → 2CO2 + 2N2


C.)2CO2 + 2NO → CO2 + N2


D.)2CO + 2NO → 2CO2 + N2


E.)2CO + 2NO → 2CN2 + O2

Respuesta :

In order to answer this question we must look at the image which I have attached.

The red atoms refer to oxygen atoms, the grey atoms are carbon atoms and the blue atoms are nitrogen. Therefore, the equation from the image suggests:

2CO + 2NO → 2CO₂ + N₂

Looking closely at the options given, several of them could be eliminated immediately since they are not balanced equations like B, C and E. Therefore, only A or D could be the answers.

The answer is option D.) 2CO + 2NO → 2CO2 + N2
