Chapter 10, Problem 74GQ
A miniature volcano can be made in the laboratory with ammonium dichromate. When ignited, it decomposes in a fiery display.
(NH4)2Cr2O7(s) → N2(g) + 4 H2O(g) + Cr2O3(s)
If 0.95 g of ammonium dichromate is used and the gases from this reaction are trapped in a 15.0-L flask at 23 °C, what is the total pressure of the gas in the flask? What are the partial pressures of N2 and H2O?
