The  balanced chemical reaction is given as:

2NaN_{3}(s)\rightarrow 2Na(s)+3N_{2}(g)

Now, convert 19.0 ft^{3} into litres.

1 ft^{3}  = 28.3168

So, 19.0 ft^{3} = 19\times 28.3168 = 538.0192 L

Density is equal to the ratio of mass to the volume.

D=\frac{M}{V}

where, M = mass and V= volume (538.0192 L)

Substitute the value of density and volume in formula to get the value of mass.

1.25 g/L=\frac{M}{538.0192 L}

1.25 g/L\times 538.0192 L= M

Mass = 672.524 g

Now, number of moles of N_{2} gas=\frac{672.524 g}{28.02 g/mol}

= 24.00 moles

According to the reaction, 2 moles of sodium azide gives 3 moles of nitrogen gas.

Now, in 24.00 moles of nitrogen gas produced from= \frac{2 moles of sodium azide}{3 moles of nitrogen gas}\times 24.00 moles of nitrogen gas, moles of sodium azide.

number of moles of sodium azide  = 16 moles

Mass of sodium azide in g  =  number of moles\times molar mass of sodium azide.

= 16 moles\times 65.00 g/mol

= 1040 g

Thus, mass of sodium azide which is required to produce 19.0 ft^{3} of nitrogen gas  = 1040 g

The kinetic molecular theory (KMT) deals specifically with
fgiga [73]
This kind of questions cannot be open because there might be many different answers depending of the focus.

In fact, I found the set of options that comes with this questions. This is:

A. behavior of ions.
B. molecular bonding.
C. molecular shape.
D. molecular motion.

Of course, the answer is the option D. molecular motion.

And, of course, you need an explanation.

It is good to know that the word kinetic refers to motion, so definetly kinetic molecular theory is a theory about the motion of the molecules.

With that you likely had been able to answer the question. But it is good to know what the molecular theory is.

The molecular kinetic molecular theory explains the properties and behavior of the gases in terms of the motion of its particles (molecules) making several assumptions about the energy, size and motion of such particles.

A freezer compartment is covered with a 2-mm-thick layer of frost at the time it malfunctions. If the compartment is in ambient
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

The time required to melt the frost is 3.25 hours.

Explanation:

The time required to melt the frost dependes on the latent heat of the frost and the amount of heat it is transfered by convection to the air .

The heat transferred per unit area can be expressed as:

q=h_c*A*\Delta T\\\\q/A=h_c*\Delta T

being hc the convective heat transfer coefficient (2 Wm^-2K^-1) and ΔT the difference of temperature (20-0=20 °C or K).

q/A=h_c*\Delta T=2\frac{W}{m^2K}*20K=40\frac{W}{m^2}

If we take 1 m^2 of ice, with 2 mm of thickness, we have this volume

V=T*A = 0.002 m * 1 m^2=0.002m^3

The mass of the frost can be estimated as

M=\rho * V=700\frac{kg}{m^3}*0.002m^3= 1.4 kg

Then,  the amount of heat needed to melt this surface (1 m²) of frost is

Q=L*M=334\frac{kJ}{kg}*1.4kg= 467.6kJ

The time needed to melt the frost can be calculated as

t=\frac{Q}{(q/A)}=\frac{467.6kJ/m2}{40W/m2} = 11.69\frac{kJ}{W}*\frac{1W*s}{1J}*\frac{1000J}{1kJ}=   11690s=3.25h
