What would be the predominant state of matter if there were no intermolecular forces?

Chemistry
1 answer:
loris [4]3 years ago

<span>Stronger Intermolecular forces (greater attractions) hold molecules together better. Meaning the molecules don't want to leave whatever liquid they are part of. for example, chloroform(the knock out gas), which has only weak intermolecular forces evaporates very quickly at room temp. However, water which participates in H-bonding, strong intermolecular forces, evaporates slowly at room temp. The colder a liquid is, the harder it is for the molecules to overcome their intermolecular bonds and break free. a.k.a. slow evaporation. but when a liquid is heated the molecules have enough energy to overcome their brotherly bonds and go into the gas phase.</span>

Using henry's law, calculate the molar concentration of o2 in the surface water of a mountain lake saturated with air at 20 ∘c a
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer: The molar concentration of oxygen gas in water is 1.43\times 10^{-7} mol/L.

Explanation:

Partial pressure of the O_2gas = 685 torr = 0.8905 bar

1 torr = 0.0013 bar

According Henry's law:

p_{o_2}=K_H\times\chi_{O_2}

Value of Henry's constant of oxygen gas at 20 °C in water = 34860 bar

0.0013=34860 bar\times \chi_{O_2}

\chi_{O_2}=\frac{0.8905 bar}{34680 bar}=2.56\times 10^{-5}

Let the number of moles of O_2 gas in 1 liter water be n.

1 Liter water = 1000 g of water

Moles of water in 1 L n_w=\frac{1000 g}{18 g/mol}=55.55 mol

\chi_{O_2}=\frac{n}{n+n_w}

2.56\times 10^{-5}=\frac{n}{n+55.55}

n=1.43\times 10^{-7} moles

Molarity=\frac{\text{Moles of}O_2}{Volume}

Molar concentration of oxygen gas in 1 L of water:

=\frac{1.43\times 10^{-7} moles}{1 L}=1.43\times 10^{-7} mol/L

The molar concentration of oxygen gas in water is 1.43\times 10^{-7} mol/L.

How do you find the pressure in a container if you don't have the temperature? 
BARSIC [14]
It depends on the process.
Like for example if the process is isothermal(temperature is constant), you can use,
PV = constant or P1V1 = P2V2 where P1V1 are initial conditions and P2V2 are final.


For adiabatic process,

PV^gamma = constant or P1V1 ^gamma = P2V2 ^gamma.

where gamma = Cp
                          ------
                           Cv
Cp = specific heat at constant pressure and Cv = specific at constant volume.

Value of Gamma will be given in question.
Hope this helps!

Why must each atom of an element always have the same number of protons?
Yuliya22 [10]
Atoms do not always contain the same number of electrons and protons, although this state is common. When an atom has an equal number of electrons and protons, it has an equal number of negative electric charges (the electrons) and positive electric charges (the protons). The total electric charge of the atom is therefore zero and the atom is said to be neutral. In contrast, when an atom loses or gains an electron (or the rarer case of losing or gaining a proton, which requires a nuclear reaction), the total charges add up to something other than zero.

What was the oxygen crisis
salantis [7]
The Great Oxidation Event (GOE), sometimes also called the Great Oxygenation Event, Oxygen Catastrophe, Oxygen Crisis, Oxygen Holocaust,[2] or Oxygen Revolution, was a time period when the Earth's atmosphere and the shallow ocean first experienced a rise in oxygen, approximately 2.4 billion years ago (2.4 Ga) to 2.1–2.0 Ga during the Paleoproterozoic era.[3] Geological, isotopic, and chemical evidence suggests that biologically produced molecular oxygen (dioxygen, O2) started to accumulate in Earth's atmosphere and changed Earth's atmosphere from a weakly reducing atmosphere to an oxidizing atmosphere,[4] causing many existing species on Earth to die out.[5] The cyanobacteria producing the oxygen caused the event which enabled the subsequent development of multicellular forms.
