The first thing that needs to be done in order to answer the question above is to balance first the chemical equation by seeing to that the number of moles of a certain element on the reactant side is equal to the number of moles in the product side. 4NH3 + 5O2  4NO + 6H2O The mole fraction between the NH3 and NO is therefore 4:4 or 1:1.
