Problem

Dinitrogen oxide,

\text{N}_2\text{O}

, is a greenhouse gas produced from the decomposition of artificial nitrate fertilizers. Calculate the volume of

\text{N}_2\text{O}

produced from

1.0 \text{ g}

of ammonium nitrate when it reacts, at STP, according to the equation:

\text{NH}_4\text{NO}_3(\text{s}) \rightarrow \text{N}_2\text{O}(\text{g}) + 2\text{H}_2\text{O}(\text{l})
