Solution

The correct option is B All the oxygen is consumed
Calculation of limiting reactant
For Ammonia=given molesstoichiometric coefficient=14=0.25 mol
For Oxygen=given molesstoichiometric coefficient=15=0.20 mol
So, Oxygen is the limiting reagent. Hence, it will be totally consumed
As per stoichiometry,
5 mol of oxygen forms 4 mol of NO
1 mol will form = 45 = 0.8 mol of NO
Similarly,
5 mol of oxygen forms 6 mol of H2O
1 mol will form 65×1=1.2 mol of H2O
