(a) Ammonia to nitric oxide using oxygen and platinum catalyst.
$4\text{NH}_3 + 5\text{O}_2 \xrightarrow[800 ^{\circ} \text{C}]{\text{Pt}.} 4\text{NO} + 6\text{H}_2\text{O} + \Delta$
(b) Sodium hydroxide to sodium sulphate using sulphuric acid.
2NaOH + H2SO4 ⟶ Na2SO4 + 2H2O
(c) Ferrous sulphide to hydrogen sulphide using hydrochloric acid
FeS + 2HCl ⟶ FeCl2 + H2S
