Question

1. Predict the products and balance the decomposition of AlN. (aluminum nitride; for full credit, write out the complete reaction.)

Answer 1

Ans:-

The thermal decomposition of aluminum nitride to produce Aluminum and Nitrogen. This reaction takes place at a temperature of over $1800^oC$ in vacuum.

Aluminum Nitride decomposes:

$2AlN(s) \rightarrow 2Al(s) +N_2 (g)$
