One of the main components of an airbag is the gas that fills it. As part of the design process, you need to determine the exact amount of nitrogen that should be produced. Calculate the number of moles of nitrogen required to fill the airbag. Show your work. Assume that the nitrogen produced by the chemical reaction is at a temperature of 495°C and that nitrogen gas behaves like an ideal gas. Use this fact sheet to review the ideal gas law.

The number of  moles of the gas is 0.016 moles

What is the airbag reaction?

We know that in the airbag, nitrogen gas is obtained by the decomposition of sodium azide as follows; 2NaN3 -----> 2Na + 3N2

Since it is under ideal conditions;

P = 1 atm

V = 1 L

T = 495°C  or 768 K

n = ?

R = 0.082 atm LK-1mol-1

From;

PV= nRT

n = PV/RT

n = 1 atm *  1 L/ 0.082 atm LK-1mol-1 *  768 K

n = 0.016 moles
