How does the total volume of gas particles compare to the volume of the space between gas particles?

1 answer:

7 0

Answer:
There is more space between gas particles than the size of the particles.

Explanation:
This scenario can be understand by taking a very simple example. As we know that 1 mole of any gas at standard temperature and pressure occupy 22.4 liters of volume. Lets take Hydrogen gas and Oxygen gas, 1 mole of each gas will occupy same volume. Why it is so? Why same volume although Oxygen is 16 times more heavier? This is because the space between gas molecules is very large. Approximately the distance between gas molecules is 300 times greater than their own diameter from its neighbor molecules.

If 4.0 mol of NO and 4.0 mol of O2 are combined, how many moles

Masja [62]

4.0

i think it has something to do with molar ratios and finding the limiting reactant

4.0 mol NO * 2 mol NO2/2 mol NO = 4.0 moles of NO2

4.0 mol O2 * 2 mol NO2/1 mol O2 = 8.0 moles of NO2

so the limiting reactant (the reactant that runs out the quickest leaving an excess) is NO

once the limiting reactant is found, we can use that data for that substance to calculate the amount of product

4.0 mol NO * 2 mol NO2/2 mole NO = 4.0 moles of NO2
