(a)
Interpretation:
The given decomposition reaction needs to be balanced.
Concept Introduction:
The reaction in which a single break down into two or more elements is known as decomposition reaction.
(a)

Explanation of Solution
The unbalanced reaction is shown below:
In reactant side, there is one nitrogen atom and in product side there are 2 nitrogen atoms. So, multiply with 2 in reactant side and to balance the Iodine atom, multiply 3 with product side.
The decomposition reaction is shown below:
Nitrogen triiodide is an inorganic compound which decomposed into nitrogen gas and iodine solid.

(e)
Interpretation:
The given decomposition reaction needs to be balanced.
Concept Introduction:
The reaction in which a single break down into two or more elements is known as decomposition reaction.
(e)

Explanation of Solution
The unbalanced reaction is shown below:
In the reactant side; there are 1 sodium atom and in the product side there are 3 sodium atoms. So, multiply with 3 in the reactant side to balance the sodium atom and to balance the nitrogen atom multiply with 5/2 in the product side.
The decomposition reaction is shown below:
When sodium azide decompose it will form solid of sodium nitride and nitrogen gas.

H3O+ If this reaction will work, draw the major organic product or products you would expect in the drawing area below. If there's more than one major product, you can draw them in any arrangement you like. Be sure you use wedge and dash bonds if necessary, for example to distinguish between major products with different stereochemistry. 0 If the major products of this reaction won't have a new CC bond, just check the box under the drawing area and leave it blank. فا Explanation Check Click and drag to start drawing a structure.arrow_forward
