The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Write the balanced chemical equation. The decomposition of ammonium nitrate (NH₄NO₃) is given by the equation: \[ 2 \text{NH}_4\text{NO}_3 \rightarrow 2 \text{N}_2 + \text{O}_2 + 4 \text{H}_2\text{O} \] ### Step 2: Calculate the molar mass of NH₄NO₃. The molar mass of NH₄NO₃ can be calculated as follows: - Nitrogen (N): 14 g/mol (2 Nitrogens = 28 g) - Hydrogen (H): 1 g/mol (4 Hydrogens = 4 g) - Oxygen (O): 16 g/mol (3 Oxygens = 48 g) Total molar mass of NH₄NO₃: \[ 14 + 4 + 16 + 16 = 80 \text{ g/mol} \] ### Step 3: Calculate the number of moles of NH₄NO₃ in 16 g. Using the formula: \[ \text{Number of moles} = \frac{\text{mass}}{\text{molar mass}} \] \[ \text{Number of moles of NH}_4\text{NO}_3 = \frac{16 \text{ g}}{80 \text{ g/mol}} = 0.2 \text{ moles} \] ### Step 4: Determine the number of moles of gas produced. From the balanced equation, 2 moles of NH₄NO₃ produce 7 moles of gas (2 N₂ + 1 O₂ + 4 H₂O). Therefore, the number of moles of gas produced from 0.2 moles of NH₄NO₃ is: \[ \text{Moles of gas} = 0.2 \text{ moles NH}_4\text{NO}_3 \times \frac{7 \text{ moles gas}}{2 \text{ moles NH}_4\text{NO}_3} = 0.7 \text{ moles gas} \] ### Step 5: Use the Ideal Gas Law to find the volume. The Ideal Gas Law is given by: \[ PV = nRT \] Where: - \( P \) = pressure (0.821 atm) - \( V \) = volume (in liters) - \( n \) = number of moles (0.7 moles) - \( R \) = ideal gas constant (0.0821 L·atm/(K·mol)) - \( T \) = temperature in Kelvin (627°C + 273 = 900 K) Rearranging for volume \( V \): \[ V = \frac{nRT}{P} \] Substituting the values: \[ V = \frac{0.7 \text{ moles} \times 0.0821 \text{ L·atm/(K·mol)} \times 900 \text{ K}}{0.821 \text{ atm}} \] ### Step 6: Calculate the volume. Calculating the volume: \[ V = \frac{0.7 \times 0.0821 \times 900}{0.821} \] \[ V \approx \frac{42.927}{0.821} \approx 52.2 \text{ liters} \] ### Final Answer: The total volume of gas produced is approximately **52.2 liters**. ---
