Answer: H₂O₂ (94%) > Air (23%) > Exhaled air (13%) > NaHCO₃ (0%)


Initial important note:


Although NaHCO₃ contents oxygen atoms, and you can calculate its compositoin, the resulting gas does not containg pure oxygen gas (O₂). For the comparisson it is not useful to calculate the content of oxygent atoms, but the concentration of O₂ gas. As such, the gas from NaHCO₃ contains 0% of pure O₂, that is why it is ranked last.


1) Air:


Source: internet


Approximate 23%. It is variable, because air is not a pure substance but a mixture of gases, whose compositon is not unique.


2) Exhaled air:


Source: internet.


Approximate 13%. The compositon of the air changes in our lungs, due to the respiration process: we inhale fresh air with around 23% of oxygen, part of this oxygen pass to the cells (lungs - blood - heart - cells) and then it is exhaled with a lower content of air and a greater content of CO₂


3) Air from the decomposition of H₂O₂.


In this case we can do a chemical calculation, since we can state the chemical equation of the reaction:


i) Chemical Equation:


H₂O₂ (g) → H₂ (g) + O₂ (g)


ii) mole ratio of the products 1 mol H₂ : 1 mol O₂


iii) convert moles into mass (grams)


1 mol H₂ × 2 × 1.008 g/mol = 2.016 g


1 mol O₂ × 2 × 15.999 g/mol = 31.998 g


Composition, % = [31.998 g / (2.016 g + 31.998 g) ] × 100 ≈ 94%



4) Air from the decomposition of NaHCO₃:


i) chemical equation:


2 NaHCO₃(s) → Na₂CO₃(s) + CO₂(g) + H₂O(g)


ii) mole ratio: take into account only the gases in the products:


1 mol CO₂ (g) : 1 mol H₂O


iii) mass in grams


CO₂: molar mass ia approximately 44.01 g/mol


H₂O: molar mass is approximately 18.02 g/mol


iii) Those gases although have oxygen atoms, do not hae free oxygen gas, which is what we are compariing. That means, that from the decomposition of NaHCO₃ you get 0% oxygen gas.


5) The result is:


H₂O₂ (94%) > Air (23%) > Exhaled air (13%) > NaHCO₃ (0%)

An example of a general formula of an acid is
<span>HCl

This is called as hydrochloric acid or hydrogen chloride.

H represents for the atom of Hydrogen
and Cl represents for the atom of Chlorine

Since their charges are -1, and +1, it's ratio is 1:1</span>

What data should be plotted to show that experimental concentration data fits a first-order reaction? A) 1/[reactant] vs. time B
natita [175]

Answer:

C) In[reactant] vs. time

Explanation:

For a first order reaction the integrated rate law equation is:

A = A_{0}e^{-kt}

where A(0) = initial concentration of the reactant

A = concentration after time 't'

k = rate constant

Taking ln on both sides gives:

ln[A] = ln[A]_{0}-kt

Therefore a plot of ln[A] vs t should give a straight line with a slope = -k

Hence, ln[reactant] vs time should be plotted for a first order reaction.

A 3.31-g sample of lead nitrate, Pb(NO3)2, molar mass = 331 g/mol, is heated in an evacuated cylinder with a volume of 2.53 L. T
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

0.486atm is the pressure of the cylinder

Explanation:

1 mole of Pb(NO₃)₂ descomposes in 4 moles of NO2 and 1 mole of O2. That is 1 mole descomposes in 5 moles of gas.

To find the pressure of the cylinder, we need to find moles of gas produced, and using general gas law we can determine the pressure of the gas:

<em>Moles Pb(NO₃)₂ and moles of gas:</em>

3.31g * (1mol / 331g) = 0.01 moles of Pb(NO₃)₂.

That means moles of gas produced is 0.05 moles.

<em>Pressure of the gas:</em>

Using PV = nRT

P = nRT/V

<em>Where P is pressure (Incognite)</em>

<em>V is volume (2.53L)</em>

<em>R is gas constant (0.082atmL/molK)</em>

<em>T is absolute temperature (300K)</em>

And n are moles of gas (0.05 moles)

P = 0.05mol*0.082atmL/molK*300K / 2.53L

P = 0.486atm is the pressure of the cylinder

A 0.300 m solution of hcl is prepared by adding some 1.50 m hcl to a 500 ml volumetric flask and diluting to the mark with deion
liberstina [14]
In dilution we add distilled water to decrease the concentration of required sample from high concentration to lower concentration
The law used for dilution:
M₁V₁]Before dilution = M₂V₂] After dilution
M₁ = 1.5 M
V₁ = ?
M₂ = 0.3 M
V₂ = 500 ml
1.5 * V₁ = 0.3 * 500 ml
so V₁ = 100 ml and it completed to 500 ml using 400 ml deionized water
