Nitrogen is a naturally occurring element that is essential for growth and reproduction in both plants and animals. It is found in amino acids that make up proteins, in nucleic acids, that comprise the hereditary
material and life's blueprint for all cells, and in many other organic and inorganic compounds.
Nitrogen is found in soils and plants, in the water
we drink, and in the
air we breathe. It is also essential to life: a key building block of DNA, which determines our genetics, is essential to plant growth, and therefore necessary for the food
we grow.
The volume at NTP occupied by 14 g of nitrogen is 11.2 liters.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : 14 g of nitrogen.
To find : Calculate the volume at n.t.p occupied by nitrogen ?
Solution :
We know that,
At NTP a mole of any gas weighs 22.4 litres.
Now, The number of moles in 14 g of nitrogen is
Molecular weight W= 28 g/mol
Given weight w=14 g
Volume of 1 mole is 22.4 liters.
So, volume of 0.5 mole is
Volume of 0.5 mole is 11.2 liters.
