Not sure how it was invented but it had for the environment cause it causes plastic particles killing anything or endangering those that consume it.

A scientist has two samples of gas: The first sample contains one mole of argon atoms and has a mass of 39.948 g; the second sam

V125BC [204]

There are 6.022 × 10²³ atoms in 39.948 g of argon and 4.0026 g of helium.

Explanation:

39.945 g/mole is the molar mass of argon so 39.948 g of argon are equal to 1 mole of argon.

4.0026 g/mole is the molar mass of helium so 4.0026 g of helium are equal to 1 mole of helium.

We know that Avogadro's number tell us the number of particles in 1 mole of substance which is 6.022 × 10²³.

So in 39.948 g of argon and 4.0026 g of helium contains the same number of atoms, 6.022 × 10²³.

The air bags in cars are inflated when a collision triggers the explosive, highly exothermic decomposition of sodium azide (NaN3

Oksanka [162]

Answer : The mass of $NaN_3$ required is, 166.4 grams.

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the moles of nitrogen gas.

Using ideal gas equation:

$PV=nRT$

where,

P = Pressure of $N_2$ gas = 1.00 atm

V = Volume of $N_2$ gas = 113 L

n = number of moles $N_2$ = ?

R = Gas constant = $0.0821L.atm/mol.K$

T = Temperature of $N_2$ gas = $85^oC=273+85=358K$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$1.00atm\times 113L=n\times (0.0821L.atm/mol.K)\times 358K$

$n=3.84mol$

Now we have to calculate the moles of sodium azide.

The balanced chemical reaction is,

$2NaN_3(s)\rightarrow 2Na(s)+3N_2(g)$

From the balanced reaction we conclude that

As, 3 mole of $N_2$ produced from 2 mole of $NaN_3$

So, 3.84 moles of $N_2$ produced from $\frac{2}{3}\times 3.84=2.56$ moles of $NaN_3$

Now we have to calculate the mass of $NaN_3$

$\text{ Mass of }NaN_3=\text{ Moles of }NaN_3\times \text{ Molar mass of }NaN_3$

Molar mass of $NaN_3$ = 65 g/mole

$\text{ Mass of }NaN_3=(2.56moles)\times (65g/mole)=166.4g$

Therefore, the mass of $NaN_3$ required is, 166.4 grams.
