Write a balanced chemical equation, including physical state symbols, for the decomposition of liquid nitroglycerin (C3H3 (NO;),) into gaseous dinitrogen, gaseous dioxygen, gaseous water and gaseous carbon dioxide. 2. Suppose 12.0 L of carbon dioxide gas are produced by this reaction, at a temperature of - 5.0 °C and pressure of exactly 1 atm. Calculate the mass of nitroglycerin that must have reacted. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.

Camille placed a bar of iron that is 100 degrees C in a beaker that has H2O at 25 degrees C. The water is 15 g and it had a final temperature of 69 degrees C as well as the iron bar. How much does the bar weigh? Cp,H2O = 0.45 J/g degrees C. Given that the combustion of propane has ΔHrxn = -3,000 kJ, what is ΔH if C3H8 gas is burned at constant P and releases 21 g of water?
I have a geothermal heat pump that heats and cools my house. It heats the houses by compressing 286K refrigerant at 1 ATM, and compresses it to 1.2ATM. What temperature (in Kelvin) is the compressed refrigerant in the radiator?
Suppose you are overtaken by a blizzard while ski touring and you take refuge in a tent. You arethirsty, but you forgot to bring liquid water. You have a choice of eating a few handfuls of snow (say400 g) at −5.0 °C immediately to quench your thirst or setting up your propane stove, melting thesnow, and heating the water to body temperature before drinking it. You recall that the survival guide you leafed through at the hotel said something about not eating snow, but you cannotremember why–after all, it’s just frozen water. To understand the guide’s recommendation, calculatethe amount of heat that your body will have to supply to bring 400. g of snow at −5.0 °C to yourbody’s internal temperature of 37 °C. The specific heats of liquid water and ice are 4.184 J/(g•°C) and2.062 J/(g•°C), respectively, and the enthalpy of fusion of ice is 6.01 kJ/mol.

Nitric acid is a key industrial chemical, largely used to make fertilizers and explosives. The first step in its synthesis is the oxidation of ammonia. In this reaction, gaseous ammonia reacts with dioxygen gas to produce nitrogen monoxide gas and water. Suppose a chemical engineer studying a new catalyst for the oxidation of ammonia reaction finds that 874. liters per second of dioxygen are consumed when the reaction is run at 254. °C and the dioxygen is supplied at 0.45 atm. Calculate the rate at which nitrogen monoxide is being produced. Give your answer in kilograms per second. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.
One type of gas mixture used in anesthesiologyis a 50%/50% mixture (by volume) of nitrous oxide (N2O) and oxygen(O2), which can be premixed and kept in a cylinder for later use.Because these two gases don’t react chemically at or below 2000 psi, attypical room temperatures they form a homogeneous single gas phase,which can be considered an ideal gas. If the temperature drops below-6C, however, N2O may begin to condense out of the gas phase. Thenany gas removed from the cylinder will initially be nearly pure O2; asthe cylinder empties, the proportion of O2 will decrease until the gascoming from the cylinder is nearly pure N2O. In a hospital, pure oxygen may be delivered at 50 psi (gaugepressure) and then mixed with N2O. What volume of oxygen at 20Cand 50 psi (gauge pressure) should be mixed with 1.7 kg of N2O toget a 50%/50% mixture by volume at 20C? (a) 0.21 m3; (b) 0.27 m3;(c) 1.9 m3; (d) 100 m3

In another test, the valve of a 500 L cylinder full of the gas mixture at 2000 psi (gauge pressure) is opened wide so that the gas rushes out of the cylinder very rapidly. Why might some N2O condense during this process? (a) This is an isochoric process in which the pressure decreases, so the temperature also decreases. (b) Because of the rapid expansion, heat is…
Urea (H2NCONH2) is used extensively as a nitrogen source in fertilizers. It is produced commercially from the reaction of ammonia and carbon dioxide: 2NH3(g)+CO2(g)----heat----> H2NCONH2(s) + H2O(g) Ammonia gas at 223°C and 90 atm flows into a reactor at a rate of 500 L/min. Carbon dioxide at 223°C and 45 atm flows into the reactor at a rate of 600 L/min. What mass of Urea is produced per minute by this reaction assuming 100% yield.
