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!
