Nitrogen dioxide reacts with water to form nitric acid and nitrogen monoxide according to the equation:
3 NO2 (g)+ H2O (l) --> 2HNO3 (l) + NO (g)
Suppose that 5 mol NO2 and 1 mol H2O combine and react completely. How many moles of the reactant in excess are present after the reaction has completed?
Is it 2 NO2 remaining?
