Yazid wants to make compost from leaves, sawdust, and food scraps. Leaves have 2% N, C:N 22.5, and MC 77%. Sawdust has 30% C, C:N 300, and MC 20%, whereas food scraps have 2% N, C:N 20, and 50% MC. If the amount of leaves used is 15 kg, determine how much food scraps and sawdust should be added to get a compost mixture with an ideal ratio of C:N 30:1 and moisture content 60%?

QUESTION 7 (Start on a new page.)
The airbags in motor vehicles contain the compound sodium azide (NaNs). When a car
crashes into an object, the compound decomposes and the nitrogen inflates the airbag.
The balanced equation for the reaction is as follows:
NaN(s) → 2Na(s) + 3N2(g)
In one such decomposition, 2,53 x 10° molecules of nitrogen are generated.
Calculate the:
7.1
Number of moles of NaN(s) that decomposed
7.2
Volume of N2(g) produced
Assume that the reaction occurs at standard pressure.
QUESTION 8 (Start on a new page.)
Aluminium sulphate is used as a coagulant in water purification. It reacts with sodium
hydroxide to form aluminium hydroxide which drags the impurities as it settles.
The balanced equation for the reaction is:
Al2(SO4)3(aq) + 6NaOH(aq) → 2Al(OH)3(s) + 3Na2SO4(aq)
A chemist at a water purification plant adds 700 g of Al2(SO4)3 to a sample of water.
