The rows in the top third - This group consists of elements like Sodium, Magnesium, Potassium and Calcium on the right and Chlorine, Carbon, Nitrogen and Oxygen on the left.
Sodium and Chlorine are components of salt, a very important compound of our blood, essential for transferring electrical signals from the brain to the rest of the body and vice versa. Calcium is the building block of our bones, while Magnesium and potassium ensure proper functioning of our organs.

Josefina and Raul were comparing how sound moves through various mediums and how charge moves through conducting wires. They per
Fed [463]

They found that difference occurs in the speed of both sound and charges occur due to the difference in the type of medium.

Sound and charges needs specific medium for faster movement i.e. sound moves faster in solid as compared to liquid and gas whereas charges moves faster and easily in gold due to lower resistance which is followed by copper. Sound can move from solid, liquid and gases whereas charges move only in solid metal in which free electrons are present. The speed of sound and flow of current are affected due to difference in the arrangement of atoms in solid, liquid and gas.

What is the volume of 0.80 grams of o2 gas at stp? (5 points) group of answer choices 0.59 liters 0.56 liters 0.50 liters 0.47 l
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

0.56L

Explanation:

This question requires the Ideal Gas Law:  PV=nRT where P is the pressure of the gas, V is the volume of the gas, n is the number of moles of the gas, R is the Ideal Gas constant, and T is the Temperature of the gas.

Since all of the answer choices are given in units of Liters, it will be convenient to use a value for R that contains "Liters" in its units:R=0.0821\frac{L\cdot atm}{mol\cdot K}

Since the conditions are stated to be STP, we must remember that STP is Standard Temperature Pressure, which means T=273.15K and P=1atm

Lastly, we must calculate the number of moles of O_2(g) there are.  Given 0.80g of O_2(g), we will need to convert with the molar mass of O_2(g).  Noting that there are 2 oxygen atoms, we find the atomic mass of O from the periodic table (16g/mol) and multiply by 2:  32g\text{ }O_2=1mol\text{ }O_2

Thus, \frac{0.80g \text{ }O_2}{1} \frac{1mol\text{ }O_2}{32g\text{ }O_2}=0.25mol\text{ }O_2=n

Isolating V in the Ideal Gas Law:

PV=nRT

V=\frac{nRT}{P}

...substituting the known values, and simplifying...

V=\frac{(0.025 mol \text{ }O_2)(0.0821\frac{L\cdot atm}{mol \cdot K} )(273.15K)}{(1atm)}

V=0.56L \text{ } O_2

So, 0.80g of O_2(g) would occupy 0.56L at STP.
