To solve the question we will assume that the gas behaves like an ideal gas, that is to say, that there is no interaction between the molecules. Assuming ideal gas we can apply the following equation:

PV=nRT

Where,

P is the pressure of the gas

V is the volume of the gas

n is the number of moles

R is a constant

T is the temperature

Now, we have two states, an initial state, and a final state. The conditions for each state will be.

Initial state (1)

P1=975Torr=1.28atm

V1=3.8L

T1=-18°C=255.15K

Final state(2), STP conditions

P2=1atm

T2=273.15K

V2=?

We will assume that the number of moles remains constant, so the nR term of the first equation will be constant. For each state, we will have:

\begin{gathered} \frac{P_1V_1}{T_1}=nR \\ \frac{P_2V_2}{T_2}=nR \end{gathered}

Since nR is the same for both states, we can equate the equations and solve for V2:

\begin{gathered} \frac{P_{2}V_{2}}{T_{2}}=\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1} \\ V_2=\frac{P_{1}V_{1}}{T_{1}}\times\frac{T_2}{P_2} \end{gathered}

We replace the known values:

V_2=\frac{1.28atm\times3.8L}{255.15K}\times\frac{273.15K}{1atm}=5.2L

At STP conditions the gas would occupy 5.2L. First option

What a three of the signs of an allergic reaction to iv t-pa?
Anna007 [38]
Look out for angioedema (like hives but a deeper swelling due to an allergic reacrion), bleeding (such as intracranial, gastrointestinal and genitourinal hemorrhaging) and adverse reactions to drugs. Nausea, blood pressure spikes, severe headaches, acute hypertsnsion, etc are other signs of negative reacrions to iv t-pa as well.

Acetylene gas, C2H2, can be produced by the reaction of calcium carbide and water. CaC2(s) + 2H2O(l) --> C2H2(g) + Ca(OH)2(aq
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

1.0 L

Explanation:

Given that:-

Mass of CaC_2 = 2.54\ g

Molar mass of CaC_2 = 64.099 g/mol

The formula for the calculation of moles is shown below:

moles = \frac{Mass\ taken}{Molar\ mass}

Thus,

Moles= \frac{2.54\ g}{64.099\ g/mol}

Moles_{CaC_2}= 0.0396\ mol

According to the given reaction:-

CaC_2_{(s)} + 2H_2O_{(l)}\rightarrow C_2H_2_{(g)} + Ca(OH)_2_{(aq)}

1 mole of CaC_2 on reaction forms 1 mole of C_2H_2

0.0396 mole of CaC_2 on reaction forms 0.0396 mole of C_2H_2

Moles of C_2H_2 = 0.0396 moles

Considering ideal gas equation as:-

PV=nRT

where,

P = pressure of the gas = 742 mmHg  

V = Volume of the gas = ?

T = Temperature of the gas = 26^oC=[26+273]K=299K

R = Gas constant = 62.3637\text{ L.mmHg }mol^{-1}K^{-1}

n = number of moles = 0.0396 moles

Putting values in above equation, we get:

742mmHg\times V=0.0396 mole\times 62.3637\text{ L.mmHg }mol^{-1}K^{-1}\times 299K\\\\V=\frac{0.0396\times 62.3637\times 299}{742}\ L=1.0\ L

<u>1.0 L of acetylene  can be produced from 2.54 g CaC_2.</u>

In a chemical reaction, mass is conserved. this means that...
sergij07 [2.7K]
Atoms are the smallest particales of an element that can take part in a chemical reaction. During a chemical reaction no particles are created or destroyed. The atoms are simply rearranged from the reactants to the products, mass is NEVER lost or gained in chemical reactions...Mass is ALWAYS conserved. :) Hope this helped

Is C3N2H4 a organic compound
KengaRu [80]

Organic compounds and inorganic compounds form the basis of chemistry. ... Also, nearly all organic compounds contain carbon-hydrogen or C-H bonds. Note, containing carbon is not sufficient for a compound to be considered organic! Look for both carbon and hydrogen.Jun 1, 2018
