Calculate the mass of sodium azide required to decompose and produce 2.104 moles of nitrogen. Refer to the periodic table to get the atomic weights.

91 grams of sodium azide required to decompose and produce 2.104 moles of nitrogen.

Explanation:

2NaN32Na+3N2

This  is the balanced equation for the decomposition and production of sodium azide required to produce nitrogen.

From the equation:

2 moles of NaNO3 will undergo decomposition to produce 3 moles of nitrogen.

In the question moles of nitrogen produced is given as 2.104 moles

so,

From the stoichiometry,

3N2/2NaN3=2.104/x

= 3/2=2.104/x

3x= 2*2.104

   = 1.4 moles

So, 1.4 moles of sodium azide will be required to decompose to produce 2.104 moles of nitrogen.

From the formula

no of moles=mass/atomic mass

        mass=no of moles*atomic mass

                   1.4*65

               = 91 grams of sodium azide required to decompose and produce 2.104 moles of nitrogen.

the answer is a. co2, this would be colder than the : )
