Now they feel it is best to have you identify an unknown gas based on its properties. Suppose 0.508 g of a gas occupies a volume

pishuonlain [190]

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

mass = 0.508 g, Volume = 0.175 L

Temperature = (25 + 273) K = 298 K, P = 1 atm

As per the ideal gas law, PV = nRT.

where, n = no. of moles = $\frac{mass}{\text{molar mass}}$

Hence, putting all the given values into the ideal gas equation as follows.

PV = $\frac{mass}{\text{molar mass}} \times RT$

1 atm \times 0.175 L = $\frac{0.508 g}{\text{molar mass}} \times 0.0821 L atm/ K mol \times 298 K$

= 71.02 g

As the molar mass of a chlorine atom is 35.4 g/mol and it exists as a gas. So, molar mass of $Cl_{2}$ is 70.8 g/mol or 71 g/mol (approx).

Thus, we can conclude that the gas is most likely chlorine.

I have asked this before, to get more points, just put the same answer on the other questions

aleksklad [387]

The standard atomic weight is the average mass of an element in atomic mass units ("amu"). Though individual atoms always have an integer number of atomic mass units, the atomic mass on the periodic table is stated as a decimal number because it is an average of the various isotopes of an element.

How much mass defect is required to release 5.5 x 1020 J of energy?

Montano1993 [528]

Answer : The mass defect required to release energy is 6111.111 kg

Explanation :

To calculate the mass defect for given energy released, we use Einstein's equation:

$E=\Delta mc^2$

E = Energy released = $5.5\times 10^{20}J$

$\Delta m$ = mass change = ?

c = speed of light = $3\times 10^8m/s$

Now put all the given values in above equation, we get:

$5.5\times 10^{20}Kgm^2/s^2=\Delta m\times (3\times 10^8m/s)^2$

$\Delta m=6111.111kg$

Therefore, the mass defect required to release energy is 6111.111 kg
