Evaporation is the process by which water changes from a liquid to a gas or vapor. Evaporation is the primary pathway that water moves from the liquid state back into the water cycle as atmospheric water vapor.
Answer:
Alright, the first thing we have to do is to balance the chemical equation
2Na3N -----> 6Na + 1N2
We have 60g of Na3N, we convert them into moles by dividing the mass of the compound by the molar mass.
Molar mass of Na3N = (22.98 x 3) + (14) = 82.94g/mol
<u>60</u> = 0.72341451651 moles of Na3N
82.94
Now because we did the balanced equation, we know the mole to mole ratio of Na3N to N2 would be 2:1, so in order to get the moles of N2 you have to divide the moles of Na3N by 2
0.72341451651 moles/2 = 0.361707258 moles of N2
Now that we have the moles of N2, we just have to determine the mass of it in grams. In order to do that, just multiply the moles by the molar mass of N2 (28g/mol)
0.361707258 x 28 = <u>10.13g of N2</u>
<u>Therefore the decomposition of 60g of Na3N would result in 10.13g of N2 (nitrogen gas)</u>
