Question 3
Nitroglycerin is a dangerous powerful explosive that violently decomposes when it is shaken or dropped. The Swedish chemist Alfred Nobel (1833-1896) founded
the Nobel Prizes with a fortune he made by inventing dynamite, a mixture of nitroglycerin and inert ingredients that was safe to handle.
1. Write a balanced chemical equation, including physical state symbols, for the
decomposition of liquid nitroglycerin (C,H,(NO,)) into gaseous dinitrogen,
gaseous dioxygen, gaseous water and gaseous carbon dioxide.
2. Suppose 30.0 L of carbon dioxide gas are produced by this reaction, at a
15.0 °C and pressure of exactly 1 atm. Calculate the mass of
temperature of
nitroglycerirn that must have reacted. Be sure your answer has the correct number of
significant digits.
