Nitroglycerin is a dangerous powerful explosive that violently decomposes when it is shaken or dropped. The Swedish chemist Alfred Nobel(1833-1896) founded the Nobel Prizes with a fortune he made by inventing dynamite, a mixture of nitroglycerin and inert ingredients that wassafe to handle.1. Write a balanced chemical equation, including physical state symbols, for theOndecomposition of liquid nitroglycerin (C;H;(NO3),) into gaseous dinitrogen, gaseousdioxygen, gaseous water and gaseous carbon dioxide.2. Suppose 74.0 L of carbon dioxide gas are produced by this reaction, at atemperature of - 13.0 °C and pressure of exactly 1 atm. Calculate the mass ofnitroglycerin that must have reacted. Round your answer to 3 significant digits.

States of Matter

The substance that constitutes everything in the universe is known as matter. Matter comprises atoms which in turn are composed of electrons, protons, and neutrons. Different atoms combine together to give rise to molecules that act as a foundation for all kinds of substances. There are five states of matter based on their energies of attraction, namely solid, liquid, gases, plasma, and BEC (Bose-Einstein condensates).

Chemical Reactions and Equations

When a chemical species is transformed into another chemical species it is said to have undergone a chemical reaction. It consists of breaking existing bonds and forming new bonds by changing the position of electrons. These reactions are best explained using a chemical equation.
