Question:

Nitroglycerin decomposes into four different gases when detonated:4 C3H5(NO3)3(1) 6 N(g) + O(g) + 12 CO(g) + 10 HO(g)

The detonation of a small quantity of nitroglycerin produces a total pressure of 4.2 atm at a temperature of 450°C.
(a) What is the partial pressure of N2?
(b) If the gases occupy a volume of 1.5 L, what mass of nitroglycerin was detonated?
