Question

assume that 44.3g Na2O are formed during the inflation of an air bag.How many liters of CO2-density=1.35g/L are needed to completely react with the Na2O?Explain

Answer 1

This reaction is unknown to me. Air bags typically are formed with N2 as the active gas. Do you have the reaction?

Answer 2

This is the entire essay question that was presented to me as an assignment.
It just asks how many liters of CO2(density=1.35g/L)are needed to completely react with the Na2O.
I can'y find help anywhere whis this question

Answer 3

Then I will assume that we are talking about Na2O + CO2 ==> Na2CO3 although I understand that airbags have KNO3 and SiO2 in order to react with the Na2O produced to produce products other than Na2CO3.
mols Na2O = 44.3 grams/molar mass = ?
Mols CO2 = mols Na2O
g CO2 = mols CO2 x molar mass CO2
volume CO2 = mass CO2/density CO2.
