Question

In the following reaction, how many grams of nitroglycerin C3H5(NO3)3 will decompose to give 25 grams of CO2?

4C3H5(NO3)3(l) 12CO2(g) + 6N2(g) + 10H2O(g) + O2(g)

The molar mass of nitroglycerin is 227.0995 grams and that of carbon dioxide is 44.01 grams.

14.5 grams

387.10 grams

43.00 grams

1.6 grams

193.5 grams

Answer 2

I cant do this problem right now.

Answer 3

Okay. That is fine.

Answer 4

we can't compare \(masses\) of different compounds together, we can only compare \(moles\) of compounds, because a mole is always the same number of molecules or atoms.

Answer 5

take the \(mass\) of \(CO_2\) you need to form and convert it into \(moles\)

Answer 6

This is stoichometry right?

Answer 7

it is

Answer 8

I got 43.00.
