A 1.000 kg sample of an organic compound, C3H5N3O9, explodes and releases gases with a temperature of 1985°C at 836.0 atm. What is the volume of gas produced? (always balance equations) C3H5N3O9(s) → CO2(g) + H2O(g) + N2(g) + O2(g)
The listed answers are: 5378 L, 742.2 L, 3525 L, 4730 L, 352.5 L
My answer:
We have:
1.000 kg --> 1.000x10^3 g =1,000 g
C3H5N3O9
T= 1985C --> 1985C+273= 2258K
P= 836.0 atm
V=?
Balanced equation: 4C3H5N3O9-->12CO2+10H2O+6N2+O2
C= 3*12.0107 = 36.0321g
H= 5*1.00794 = 5.0397g
N= 3*14.00674 = 42.02022g
O= 9*15.9994 = 143.9946g
C3H5N3O9 = 227.08662 g/mol
1,000g*(1 mol/277.08662g) = 4.404 mol C3H5N3O9
CO2:
4.404 C3H5N3O9 * 12 mol
CO2/4 mol
C3H5N3O9 = 13.212
mol CO2
H2O:
4.404 C3H5N3O9 * 10 mol
H2O/4 mol
C3H5N3O9 = 11.01
mol H2O
N2:
4.404 C3H5N3O9 * 6 mol
N2/4 mol
C3H5N3O9 = 6.606
mol N2
O2:
4.404 C3H5N3O9 * 1 mol
O2/4 mol
C3H5N3O9 = 1.101
mol O2
Sum of mol of gasses: 13.212+11.01+6.606+1.101= 31.929 mol gasses
Ideal gas law: PV=nRT; to find V=nRT/P
V=[31.929 mol * 0.082058 (L*atm/K*mol) * 2258K]/ 836.0 atm
V= 7.077 L obviously isn't one of my possible
answer choices, am I doing something wrong?
