4 C3H5N3O9--- 6 N2+ 12 CO2 + 10 H2O + O2
This reaction generates a large amount of heat and many gaseous products. It is the sudden formation of these gases, together with a rapid expansion, that produces the explosion. a) what is the maximum amount of O2 in grams that can be obtained from 2.00x10^2 of nitroglycerin? b) calculate the percent yield in this reaction if the same amount of O2 generated is found to be 6.55g.
a) 7.05g. b) 92.9%
