Below are the reduction half reactions for chemolithoautotrophic denitrification, where hydrogen is a source of electrons and energy and nitrate is the terminal electron acceptor.

NO3- + 10e- -> N2 (E0 = +0.74 V)

H+ + 2e- -> H2 (E0 = -0.42 V)

If you balance and combine the reactions so that 220 molecules of H2 gas are oxidized to H+, how many molecules of NO3- will be reduced to dinitrogen gas?
