Answer:
1. NaN₃(s) → Na(s) + 1.5 N₂(g)
2. 79.3g
Explanation:
<em>1. Write a balanced chemical equation, including physical state symbols, for the decomposition of solid sodium azide (NaN₃) into solid sodium and gaseous dinitrogen.</em>
NaN₃(s) → Na(s) + 1.5 N₂(g)
<em>2. Suppose 43.0L of dinitrogen gas are produced by this reaction, at a temperature of 13.0°C and pressure of exactly 1atm. Calculate the mass of sodium azide that must have reacted. Round your answer to 3 significant digits.</em>
First, we have to calculate the moles of N₂ from the ideal gas equation.
The moles of NaN₃ are:
The molar mass of NaN₃ is 65.01 g/mol. The mass of NaN₃ is:
Chemical energy is converted to thermal energy.
The is the B) doing background research about the question
Since there are 63.01284 grams to one mole of HNO3, then 12.5 moles would be in 450 grams of it.
