a) NO is the limiting reagent and 11.185 g NO2 will be formed.
b) NO is the limiting reagent and 15.973 g NO2 will be formed.
c) NO is the limiting reagent and 28.800 g NO2 will be formed.
d) O2 is the limiting reagent and 15.973 g NO2 will be formed.
e) O2 is the limiting reagent and 28.800 g NO2 will be formed.
3. A sample of a gas is confined in a cylinder under a pressure of 3.182 atm at a temperature of 15.11 C. Initially, the volume of the gas is 9.162 L. If the pressure on the gas is increased to 6.741 atm and the temperature does not change, what will the new volume of the gas be?

| d) 1.30 atm | e) 0.55 atm |
5. What is the density of O2 gas when the pressure is 5.187 atm and the temperature is 13.73 C?
| a) 1.117 g / L | b) 3.500 g / L | c) 4.992 g / L |
| d) 6.105 g / L | e) 7.051 g / L |
6. Balance the equation
C3H8 + O2 ----------> CO2 + H2O
If your set of coefficients happens to have a common factor other than
one, divide all coefficients by the greatest common factor to get the
chemical equation in lowest terms. When the equation is balanced
using integers in lowest terms, the coefficient of O2 is
