Question 2: In 2.15 mols of ammonium nitrate, there are 1.30 x 10^24 molecules of the compound. This is calculated by multiplying Avogadro's number (6.022 x 10^23) by the number of moles.
Question 3:
A. The full reaction for the decomposition of silver bromide to form solid silver and bromine gas is: 2AgBr(s) -> 2Ag(s) + Br2(g). This reaction is balanced with two moles of silver bromide producing two moles of silver and one mole of bromine gas.
B. To determine the number of grams of bromine gas produced when 25.54 grams of silver bromide decomposes fully, we first need to convert the given mass of silver bromide to moles using the molar mass of silver bromide (187.77 g/mol). Once we have the number of moles of silver bromide, we can use the stoichiometry of the balanced chemical equation to find the number of moles of bromine gas produced. Finally, we convert the moles of bromine gas to grams using the molar mass of bromine gas (79.904 g/mol). This calculation shows that 7.08 grams of bromine gas will be produced when 25.54 grams of silver bromide decomposes fully.
