How many grams of nan3 are required to produce 19.0 ft3 of nitrogen gas, about the size of an automotive air bag, if the gas has a density of 1.25 g/l?

The  balanced chemical reaction is given as:

Now, convert into litres.

So,

Density is equal to the ratio of mass to the volume.

where, M = mass and V= volume

Substitute the value of density and volume in formula to get the value of mass.

Now, number of moles of gas=

=

According to the reaction, 2 moles of sodium azide gives 3 moles of nitrogen gas.

Now, in 24.00 moles of nitrogen gas produced from= of nitrogen gas, moles of sodium azide.

number of moles of sodium azide  =

Mass of sodium azide in g  =  .

=

=

Thus, mass of sodium azide which is required to produce of nitrogen gas  =

the population of unionid mussels in the hudson river decreased after zebra mussels were introduced. zebra mussels, a nonnative species, competed with the unionid mussels for food. the zebra mussels were able to outcompete the unionid mussels, allowing the zebra mussel population to increase dramatically over six years. the unionid mussel population decreased due to a lack of food.

hope this :
