Alright. Looks like you've balanced the equations or they were already balanced.
Remember to check that aspects first and foremost.
Put an index finger on NO and another on HNO3.
It reads "for every 2 NO, you'll need 8 HNO3" or "for every 8 HNO3, you'll need 2 NO".
With moles it becomes "for every 2 moles of NO, you'll need 8 moles of HNO3" or "for every 8 moles of HNO3, you'll need 2 moles of NO"
NOTE: These relationships/ratios do not work with grams ..... If given grams, you'll need to convert to moles.
Now, for example .....If I was given 10 moles of NO, that's 5 times more than the 2 moles in the equation.
So, I'll need 5 times more of the HNO3. 40 moles of HNO3
"for every 60 moles of HNO3, you'll need _____ NO"
Try the other two in the same way.
