N<em>itroglycerin  decomposes    according  to   the   following  equation

4 C3H5N309  --->  12 CO2 +  10 H20  +  6 N2 +O2
The  moles  of  CO2 =  25 /44(molar  mass  of  CO2)=  0.568  moles

the  mole  ratio  of  C3H5N3O9  to  CO2  IS  4:12   from  equation  above
therefore  the  moles  of  C3H5N3O9=( 0.568 x 4)/12= 0.189  moles
mass  of C3H5N3O9=moles  x  molar  mass  of  C3N5N3O9

That  is    0.189 mol x  227  g/mol=  42.903  grams</em>

Which element is the excess reagent when 3.00 moles of Mg is ignited in 2.20 moles of pure oxygen
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

Oxygen is in excess.

Explanation:

The coefficients of the balanced equation create a mole ratio that shows the ratio of how many reactants are used up and products are created.  

The mole ratio of Mg to O2 in this equation is 2:1, which means that for every two moles of Mg used, there will be 1 mole of O2 used.

If we have 3.00 moles of Mg, we will only need 1.5 moles of oxygen to completely burn the Mg. Therefore, when all 3.00 moles of Mg are used, there will still be some of the 2.20 moles of oxygen remaining.
