Question 102

Nitrous oxide decomposes in the stratosphere. The overall equation is:

2N2O(g)→2N2(g)+O2(g) 2\text{N}_2\text{O}(\text{g}) \rightarrow 2\text{N}_2(\text{g}) + \text{O}_2(\text{g}) 2N2​O(g)→2N2​(g)+O2​(g)

with ΔrH=−164 kJ mol−1\Delta_{\text{r}} H = -164\text{ kJ mol}^{-1}Δr​H=−164 kJ mol−1.

The molar gas volume in this region is approximately 4.0 m3 mol-1.

What is the energy released, in kJ\text{kJ}kJ, during the decomposition of 2.0 m3 of nitrous oxide?

A

41.041.041.0

B
