Answer:
72.04 g of H₂O
Explanation:
The balance chemical equation is as follow;
NH₄NO₃ → 2 H₂O + N₂O
To solve this problem we will first find the number of Moles of NH₄NO₃ as;
Moles = Mass / M.Mass
Moles = 160.1 g / 80.03 g/mol
Moles = 2.00 Moles
Secondly, we will find the number of moles of H₂O produced as,
According to equation,
1 mole of NH₄NO₃ produced = 2.0 moles of H₂O
So,
2.00 moles of NH₄NO₃ will produce = X moles of H₂O
Solving for X,
X = 2.0 moles × 2.0 mole / 1 mole
X = 4.0 moles of H₂O
Atlast, we will convert moles of water to mass as,
Moles = Mass / M.Mass
Or,
Mass = Moles × M.Mass
Mass = 4.0 mol × 18.01 g/mol
Mass = 72.04 g of H₂O
