There are three reactions involved so the final product is harmless. The first step begins with the thermal decomposition of sodium azide, a explosive.
At the end you obtain a safe product, a glass (alkaline silicate), that is stable and unignitable.
First we need to calculate the number of moles of N2 in 70L, this can be done with the ideal gas equation:
Isolating n we have:
At 1 atm and 273.15 K (standard conditions) we have
From the first equation, we obtain 3 mol of N2 (from the thermal decomposition of 2 mol of NaN3 ), but there are also produced 2 moles of Na that react to form N2 , we need to know how many moles of N2 are produced in this second reaction , this is done as follows bearing in mind that we began with 2 moles of NaN3:
The total number of moles of produced nitrogen is:
So, for each 2 mol of NaN3 are produced, in total, 3.2 mol of N2. This is approximately the calculated amount so, you need 2 mol of NaN3. Using the molar mass of the compound you get:
You need approximately 130g of sodium azide for a 70L bag

Use your favorite internet search engine and locate a lease agreement. Find the clause dealing with assignment of the lease and answer these questions about that clause: 1. What is the URL for the lease that you found? 2. What does the assignment clause say? 3. What would happen under the contract if the lessee assigned the lease? 4. What would happen under the common law if the lessee assigned the lease?
