<u>Answer:</u> The total number of moles of gases produced are 7.25 moles.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The chemical reaction for the decomposition of C_3H_5(NO_3)_3 follows the equation:

4C_3H_5(NO_3)_3\rightarrow 12CO_2(g)+6N_2(g)+10H_2O(g)+O_2(g)

We are given:

Moles of C_3H_5(NO_3)_3 = 1.00 mol

  • <u>For carbon dioxide:</u>

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

4 moles of C_3H_5(NO_3)_3 is producing 12 moles of carbon dioxide.

So, 1 mole of C_3H_5(NO_3)_3 will produce = \frac{12}{4}\times 1=3mol of carbon dioxide.

Moles of carbon dioxide produced = 3 moles

  • <u>For nitrogen:</u>

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

4 moles of C_3H_5(NO_3)_3 is producing 6 moles of nitrogen.

So, 1 mole of C_3H_5(NO_3)_3 will produce = \frac{6}{4}\times 1=1.5mol of nitrogen.

Moles of nitrogen produced = 1.5 moles

  • <u>For water:</u>

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

4 moles of C_3H_5(NO_3)_3 is producing 10 moles of water.

So, 1 mole of C_3H_5(NO_3)_3 will produce = \frac{12}{10}\times 1=2.5mol of water.

Moles of water produced = 2.5 moles

  • <u>For oxygen:</u>

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

4 moles of C_3H_5(NO_3)_3 is producing 1 moles of oxygen.

So, 1 mole of C_3H_5(NO_3)_3 will produce = \frac{1}{4}\times 1=0.25mol of oxygen.

Moles of oxygen produced = 0.25 moles

Total number of moles of the gases produced are = 3 + 1.5 + 2.5 + 0.25 = 7.25 moles.

Hence, the total number of moles of gases produced are 7.25 moles.

1. During the Middle Ages, armies often attacked castles using large siege engines such as the counterweight trebuchet at left.
fredd [130]

Answer: Some challenges that I could see would be the walls, possibly a moat, tar, and the towers.

Explanation: The wall is obliviously a main problem, trying to get over it or through it is a difficult challenge. The moat (if it has one) means that there is more than likely only one way to get in or out.  If it does have tar it means that the attackers are going to be put in a "sticky situation" And finally the towers, they have people at the top shooting arrows down at you, or throwing things at you.

How would the period of pendulum differ from an equivalent one on earth?<br>​
Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

If you know that that free fall acceleration g on the Moon is about 6 times less than on the Earth, it gives you the answer: on the Moon the same pendulum will have a period about √6≈2.45 longer than on the Earth.

Lena [83]
Long time ago, people saw the constellations as patterns in the sky.  They names these patterns and tell stories about them. What people saw laong time ago are just mere patterns which forms animals and shapes.  We got the names of our constellations from the Greeks who named the constellations after the mythological heroes and mythological legends.
