The solution calculates the mass of nitric acid that can be produced using Ostwald process.

Solution Preview

Ostwald process is represented by the following equations:

4 NH3 (g) + 5 O2 (g) ---> 4 NO (g) + 6 H2O (g)
2 NO (g) + O2 (g) -----> 2 NO2 (g)
3 NO2 (g) + H2O (l) ------> 2 HNO3 (aq) + NO ...
