Working on a lab for Chem- my tutor is stuck so thought I'd ask here. NaN3 + KNO3 gives a reaction of N2 gas. We got a 2:1 ratio but the other data given to us doesn't have a volume for the gas (pv=nrt). Any ideas? Thank you.

This seems to be the reaction for an air bag explosion,
If the "ratio" is regarding the reactants, per the balanced equation above, they are present in a 5 to 1 ratio, not a 2 to 1 ratio.
You need to give us more data from the experiment in order to give us an opportunity to answer this question fully.
