Analysis of a Chemical Mixture Using the Ideal Gas Law The objective of this experiment was to determine the composition of the NaNO2 mixture in the net ionic reaction of NO2-(aq) + HSO3NH2(aq) → HSO4-(aq) + H2O(l) + N2(g) in unknown mixture number nine. It was known that NO2-(aq) and HSO3NH2(aq) were in a stoichiometric 1:1 molar ratio. In trial one the percent mass of NaNO2 in the unknown mixture was 59.30%. In trial two‚ the percent mass of NaNO2 was 63.47%. Lastly in trial three
