Question

H 2 When 68g of silver nitrate (AgNO) is heated it decomposes to form 43.2 g of silver (A H 18.4g of nitrogen dioxide (NO₂) and 6.4g of oxygen O₂. Use this data to write a balanced equation for the reaction. You must show all your working. [Relative formula masses: AgNO3 = 170; Ag =108; NO₂=46; O₂ = 32] ​

Answer 1

2AgNO3 --> 2AgNO2 + O2

Step-by-step explanation:

Matter is neither created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction. Balanced equations ensures that.
