    1) Balanced chemical reaction

    4NH3 + 5O2 - - - > 4NO + 6H2O

    2) Molar ratios

    4 mol NH3 : 5 mol O2 : 4 mol NO : 6 mol H2O

    3) Convert 8.45 g of O2 to moles

    moles = mass in grams / molar mass = 8.45 g / 32.0 g/mol = 0.264 mol O2

    4) Proportion

    5 mol O2 / 6 mol H2O = 0.264 mol O2 / x

    => x = 0.264 mol O2 * 6 mol H2O / 5 mol O2 = 0.3168 mol H2O

    5) Convert 0.3168 mol H2O in grams

    mass = molar mass * number of moles

    molar mass H2O = 18.0 g/mol

    mass = 18.0 g/mol * 0.3168 mol = 5.7024 g ≈ 5.70 g

    Answer: 5.70 g
