Phosphorus is in group 15 meaning it have 5 valence electrons. This means that it needs 3 more electrons to create a full outer shell. As these three electrons are negatively charged it means that P is a 3- ion (it’s an anion [negatively charged ion])

a helium balloon has a volume of 2.95 liters at 25 c. the volume of the ballon decreased to 2.25 l after it is placed outside on
OleMash [197]

Answer:

The outside temperature is -45.8°C

Explanation:

When a gas keeps on constant its moles and its pressure, we can assume that volume will be increased or decreased as the T° (absolute T° in K).

V1 / T1 = V2 / T2

2.95L/298K = 2.25L / T2

(2.95L/298K ) . T2 = 2.25L

T2 = 2.25L . 298K / 2.95L

T2 = 227.2K

T°K - 273 = T°C

227.2K - 273 = -45.8°C

Automotive air bags inflate when sodium azide, NaN3, decomposes explosively to its constituent elements. How many moles of nitro
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

2.29 g of N2

Explanation:

We have to start with the <u>chemical reaction</u>:

NaN_3~->~Na~+~N_2

The next step is to <u>balance the reaction</u>:

2NaN_3~->~2Na~+~3N_2

We can continue with the <u>mol calculation</u> using the molar mass of

NaN_3 (65 g/mol), so:

3.55~g~NaN_3\frac{1~mol~NaN_3}{65~g~NaN_3}=0.054~mol~NaN_3

Now, with the<u> molar ratio</u> between NaN_3  and N_2  we can <u>calculate the moles</u> of N_2  (2:3), so:

0.054~mol~NaN_3\frac{3~mol~N_2}{2~mol~NaN_3}=0.0819~mol~N_2

With the molar mass of N_2 we can <u>calculate the grams</u>:

0.0819~mol~N_2=\frac{1~mol~N_2}{28~g~N_2}=2.29~g~N_2

I hope it helps!
