2NaNO3 --> 2NaNO2 + O2. When a sample of solid sodium nitrate was heated 96cm3 of gas was collected, calculate the mass of NaNO3 Decomposed

We know that the reaction is a 2:1 ratio as 2 moles of NaNO3 is used to form 1 mole of O2 so first we need to find the moles of the product produced 
SoVolume of gas (dm3)= number of moles x 24dm3The...
