If 100.0 grams of na3n decompose to form sodium and nitrogen, how many moles of sodium are formed? write and balance equation before solving

3.62 moles

Explanation:

Sodium nitride (Na₃N) will decompose as shown in the balanced equation below

2Na₃N → 6Na + N₂

The molar mass of sodium nitride in the solution is

Mass of Na above is (2 ₓ 3 ₓ 23) = 138 g

Mass of N above is (2 ₓ 14) = 28 g

Mass of Na₃N = 138g + 28g = 166g

From the equation above, we can deduce that 166g of Na₃N will produce 6 moles of sodium. Hence 100g of Na₃N will produce X moles of sodium where X is unknown.

∴ 166g of Na₃N →  6 moles of Na

100g of Na₃N → X moles of Na

When the above is cross multiplied,

X =

X = 3.62 moles

3.62 moles of sodium (Na) will be formed when 100g of Na₃N decomposes

mechanics (greek   is that area of science concerned with the behaviour of physical bodies when subjected to forces or displacements, and the subsequent effects of the bodies on their environment. the scientific discipline has its origins in ancient greece with the writings of aristotle and archimedes[1][2][3] (see history of classical mechanics and timeline of classical mechanics). during the early modern period, scientists such as galileo, kepler, and newton laid the foundation for what is now known as classical mechanics. it is a branch of classical physics that deals with particles that are either at rest or are moving with velocities significantly less than the speed of light. it can also be defined as a branch of science which deals with the motion of and forces on objects. the field is yet less widely understood in terms of quantum theory.
