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 was safe to handle. 1. Write a balanced chemical equation, including physical state symbols, for the decomposition of liquid nitroglycerin (C3H;(NO,),) into gaseous dinitrogen, gaseous dioxygen, gaseous water and gaseous carbon dioxide. 2. Suppose 73.0 L of carbon dioxide gas are produced by this reaction, at a temperature of -12.0 °C and pressure of exactly 1 atm. Calculate the mass of nitroglycerin that must have reacted. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.

The O'Keefe's have 50 gallons of cucumbers for pickling. They have supplies of potassium hydroxide, sulfuric acid and ethanol on hand. The 1.5M KOH solution costs $5 per liter, 9 M H2SO4 solution costs $7.50 per liter, and ethanol costs $25 per liter. A 50 g jar of alum from the grocery store costs $8.59. Do you think it’s worth the time and trouble for Richard and Diane to make their own alum from discarded aluminum cans? Explain your answer showing all calculations
