What volume of 1.20 M nitric acid is needed to convert 5.5g of m-chlorophenol to 3-chloro-2,6-dinitrophenol?
I So far I have converted the 5.5g chlorophenol to mols and I got .043 mol. I know Volume * Molarity (1.2M)=moles. At this point I am stuck.

Writing the real subject title will usually get you answers sooner.
Using the coefficients in the balanced equation, convert mols chlorophenol to mols of HNO3 need to make the product. Then you know M = moles/L; L is the only unknown.
DrWLS is right. I wouldn't click on ORGO but if you wrote chemistry there for the subject you would have obtained a quicker answer.

Thank you I was able to work it out:
it's a 1:1 ratio so since 5.5g chlorophenol is .043 mols, nitric acid must be .043 mols as well.
V(1.20M) = .043mol
V= .036L
