. Nitric acid can be manufactured from ammonia in a series of reactions called the Ostwald process, developed in 1902 by German chemist Wilhelm Ostwald. The reactions are shown below: + 4 NH3(g) + 5 O2(g) → 4 NO(g) + 6 H20m) 2 NO9 + O2(g) → 2 NO2(8) 3 NO2(g) + H,00 → 2 HNO3(aq) + NO (3) Calculate the mass of nitric acid that is produced if 4.00 mol of ammonia is completely reacted through the Ostwald process.
