The salt ammonium nitrate can follow three modes of decomposition: (a) to HNO 3 ( g ) and NH 3 ( g ), (b) to N 2 O( g ) and H 2 O( g ), and (c) to N 2 ( g ), O 2 ( g ), and H 2 O( g ). Calculate Δ G rxn ° for each mode of decomposition at 298 K. Explain in light of these results how it is still possible to use ammonium nitrate as a fertilizer and the precautions that should be taken when it is used.

You have now performed a liquid-liquid extraction protocol in Experiment 4. In doing so, you
manipulated and exploited the acid-base chemistry of one or more of the compounds in your
mixture to facilitate their separation into different phases. The key to understanding how liquid-
liquid extractions work is by knowing which layer a compound is in, and in what protonation state.
The following liquid-liquid extraction is different from the one you performed in Experiment
4, but it uses the same type of logic. Your task is to show how to separate apart Compound
A and Compound B.
. Complete the following flowchart of a liquid-liquid extraction. Handwritten work is
encouraged.
•
Draw by hand (neatly) only the appropriate organic compound(s) in the boxes.
.
Specify the reagent(s)/chemicals (name is fine) and concentration as required in Boxes 4
and 5.
•
Box 7a requires the solvent (name is fine).
•
Box 7b requires one inorganic compound.
• You can neatly complete this assignment by hand and…
