Laughing gas, N2O, also known as nitrous oxide contains 28.01 g of nitrogen in every 44.01 g of nitrous oxide. What mass of nitrous oxide can be formed from 85.20 g of nitrogen?

Answer : The mass of nitrous oxide formed from 85.20 g of nitrogen is, 133.9 grams.

Explanation :

As we are given that, 28.01 g of nitrogen is present in 44.01 g of nitrous oxide. Now we have to determine the mass of nitrous oxide formed from 85.20 g of nitrogen.

As, 28.01 g of nitrogen is present in 44.01 g of nitrous oxide

So, 85.20 g of nitrogen is present in of nitrous oxide

Thus, the mass of nitrous oxide formed from 85.20 g of nitrogen is, 133.9 grams.

a. energy is absorbed in the reaction.

if in a given reaction the energy of products is greater than the energy of reactants it means that reaction is endothermic and during the reaction, the energy is absorbed by reactants. in an endothermic reaction, the products have more stored chemical energy than the reactants. and in this reaction the reactants are more stable than products before the compounds with less energy are always more stable.
