An unknown gas effuses at a rate of 2.0 times the rate of Cl₂. What is the molar mass of the unknown gas?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Ratling [72]2 years ago
3 0

The molar mass of the unknown gas is determined as 17.75 g.

<h3>Rate of gas diffusion</h3>

The rate of gas diffusion is given by Graham's law.

R₁√M₁ = R₂√M₂

where;

  • R₁ is the rate of diffusion of the unknown gas
  • M₁ is the molecular mass of the unknown gas
  • R₂ is rate of diffusion of chlorine gas
  • M₂ is the molecular mass of chlorine gas

\frac{R_1}{R_2} = \sqrt{\frac{M_2}{M_1} } \\\\\frac{2R_2}{R_2} = \sqrt{\frac{71}{M_1} }\\\\2 = \sqrt{\frac{71}{M_1} }\\\\2^2 = \frac{71}{M_1} \\\\M_1 = \frac{71}{4} \\\\M_1 = 17.75 \ g

Phosphorus atomic radius is smaller than magnesium atomic radius <br> True or false
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Atomic radius can be defined as a measure of the size (distance) of the atom of a chemical element such as hydrogen, oxygen, carbon, nitrogen etc, typically from the nucleus to the valence electrons. The atomic radius of a chemical element decreases across the periodic table, typically from alkali metals (group one elements such as hydrogen, lithium and sodium) to noble gases (group eight elements such as argon, helium and neon). Also, the atomic radius of a chemical element increases down each group of the periodic table, typically from top to bottom (column).

<em>Hence, the atomic radius of phosphorus is smaller than the atomic radius of magnesium. Basically, the atomic radius of phosphorus is 98 pm while the atomic radius of magnesium is 145 pm.</em>

A compound is formed when 9.03 g
NikAS [45]

The percent composition  of this compound :

Mg = 72.182%

N = 27.818%

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

9.03 g  Mg

3.48 g  N

Required

The percent composition

Solution

Proust stated the Comparative Law that compounds are formed from elements with the same Mass Comparison so that the compound has a fixed composition of elements

Total mass of the compound :

= 9.03 g + 3.48 g

= 12.51 g

The percent composition :

Mg : 9.03/ 12.51 g x 100% = 72.182%

N : 3.48 / 12.51 g x 100% = 27.818%
