The reaction of solid dimethylhydrazine, (CH 3 ) 2 N 2 H 2 , and liquefied dinitrogen

Question:

The reaction of solid dimethylhydrazine, (CH3)2N2H2, and liquefied dinitrogen tetroxide, N2O4, has been investigated as a rocket fuel; the reaction produces gaseous carbon dioxide (CO2), nitrogen (N2), and water vapor (H2O), which are ejected as exhaust gases. In a controlled experiment, solid dimethylhydrazine reacted with excess nitrogen tetroxide and the gaseous products were collected in a closed vessel until a pressure of 2.50 atm and a temperature of 400.0 K were reached.

(a) What are the partial pressures of CO2, N2, and H2O?

(b) When the CO2 is removed by chemical reaction, what are the partial pressures of the remaining gases?
