Reactants and Products in an Airbag Inflator In this activity, you are tasked with designing an airbag for a company that creates airbags for automobiles. You must design the driver’s front airbag for a specific car model so it will protect the driver as effectively as possible. For this car, the airbag must have a volume of 58 liters when fully inflated. To provide an adequate cushion for the driver’s head, the air pressure inside the airbag should be 4.4 psi. This pressure value is in addition to the normal atmospheric pressure of 14.7 psi, giving a total absolute pressure of 19.1 psi, which equals 1.30 atmospheres.

Part a
Deploying an airbag in an automobile is a complex process. Identify at least three steps in the process. Refer to your research in part A of task 1 if you need help.

Part B
One of the main components of an airbag is the gas that fills it. As part of the design process, you need to determine the exact amount of nitrogen that should be produced. Calculate the number of moles of nitrogen required to fill the airbag. Show your work. Assume that the nitrogen produced by the chemical reaction is at a temperature of 495°C and that nitrogen gas behaves like an ideal gas.

Part C
Recall the balanced chemical equation from part B of task 1:
2NaN3 → 2Na + 3N2.
Calculate the mass of sodium azide required to decompose and produce the number of moles of nitrogen you calculated in part B of this task.

Part D
What would happen if the amount of sodium azide used was far greater or far less than what you calculated in part C? Describe both cases.

Astudent made a graph plotting the progress of a reaction over time. the student forgot to label the y-axis of the graph. a graph is shown with two graph lines. one graph line starts at a higher position on the y axis and slopes downwards towards the right. the other graph line starts at a lower position on the y axis and slopes upwards towards the right. the two graph lines stop short of intersecting each other and continue as separate lines which gradually become straight and parallel to the x axis. a vertical line is shown at a point where the two graph lines finally became parallel to the x axis. this vertical line is labeled equilibrium. the title on the x axis is time and an arrow pointing towards the right is shown above time. the title on the y axis is left blank. what best explains the label that the student should use on the y-axis? amount, because as the amount of product decreases, the amount of reactant increases over time. reaction rate, because forward and backward reaction become equal at equilibrium. amount, because the amounts of reactants and products become constant after equilibrium is reached. reaction rate, as the rate of forward reaction increases and rate of backward reaction decreases over time.

Some liquids can be distilled, but only at temperatures that are so high that it is impractical, or so high the compound decomposes. explain why distillation such compounds at significantly less than atmospheric pressure (some degree of vacuum) would solve this problem.
