When a problem says that Molecule A reacts with Element B in the presence of C, we don't have to write/include C in the equation right? For instance, in problem H7, the problem is:
Write a balanced equation for [...] the reaction of ammonia gas with oxygen gas at high temperatures in the presence of a copper metal catalyst produces the gases water and nitrogen dioxide.
Since copper is just a catalyst, we don't have to write it on the equation right?
So the answer will be: 4NH3 (g) + 7 O2 (g) ---> 6 H2O (g) + 4 NO2 (g)...
Is this right?
