In this activity, you are tasked with designing an airbag for a company that creates airbags for automobiles. You must design the driver’s front airbag for a specific car model so it will protect the driver as effectively as possible. For this car, the airbag must have a volume of 58 liters when fully inflated. To provide an adequate cushion for the driver’s head, the air pressure inside the airbag should be 4.4 psi. This pressure value is in addition to the normal atmospheric pressure of 14.7 psi, giving a total absolute pressure of 19.1 psi, which equals 1.30 atmospheres.

An airbag is a bag which is designed to self-inflate and serve as a cushion for the head and neck of a driver to prevent injuries when an impact occurs head-on on the car.

The gas that inflates the airbag is nitrogen which is produced from sodium azide according to equation below:

2NaN₃ → 2Na + 3N₂

In conclusion, the design of the airbag is such that the correct amount of sodium azide is present to produce the volume of nitrogen required to fill up the airbag.
