In this equation, 2Mg + O2 → 2MgO, what is the coefficient of the oxygen molecule?

Calculate the second volumes. <br> 7.03 Liters at 31 C and 111 Torr to STP

DIA [1.3K]

The second volume : V₂= 0.922 L

<h3> Further explanation </h3><h3>Given </h3>

7.03 Liters at 31 C and 111 Torr

Required

The second volume

Solution

T₁ = 31 + 273 = 304 K

P₁ = 111 torr = 0,146 atm

V₁ = 7.03 L

At STP :

P₂ = 1 atm

T₂ = 273 K

Use combine gas law :

P₁V₁/T₁ = P₂V₂/T₂

Input the value :

0.146 x 7.03 / 304 = 1 x V₂/273

V₂= 0.922 L

There are two binary compounds of mercury and oxygen. heating either of them results in the decomposition of the compound, with

grandymaker [24]

$\text{Hg} \text{O}$ and $\text{Hg}_{2} \text{O}$ .

Assuming complete decomposition of both samples,

$m(\text{Hg}) = m(\text{residure})$
$m(\text{O}) = m(\text{loss})$

First compound:

$m(\text{O}) = m(\text{loss}) = 0.6498 - 0.6018 = 0.048 \; g$
$m(\text{Hg}) = m(\text{residure}) = 0.6018 \; g$

$n = m/M$ ; $0.6498 \; g$ of the first compound would contain

$n(\text{O atoms}) = 0.048 \; g / 16 \; g \cdot mol^{-1}= 0.003 \; mol$
$n(\text{Hg atoms}) = 0.6018 \; g / 200.58 \; g \cdot mol^{-1}= 0.003 \; mol$

Oxygen and mercury atoms seemingly exist in the first compound at a $1:1$ ratio; thus the empirical formula for this compound would be $\text{Hg} \text{O}$ where the subscript "1" is omitted.

Similarly, for the second compound

$m(\text{O}) = m(\text{loss}) = 0.016 \; g$
$m(\text{Hg}) = m(\text{residure}) = 0.4172 - 0.016 = 0.4012 \; g$

$n = m/M$ ; $0.4172 \; g$ of the first compound would contain

$n(\text{O atoms}) = 0.016 \; g / 16 \; g \cdot mol^{-1}= 0.001 \; mol$
$n(\text{Hg atoms}) = 0.4012 \; g / 200.58 \; g \cdot mol^{-1}= 0.002 \; mol$

$n(\text{Hg}) : n(\text{O}) \approx 2:1$ and therefore the empirical formula

$\text{Hg}_{2} \text{O}$ .

At what temperature would 2.10moles of N2 gas have a pressure of 1.25atm and fill a 25.0 L tank

hodyreva [135]

Answer:

$\large \boxed{\text{-92 $^{\circ}$C}}$

Explanation:

We can use the Ideal Gas Law and solve for T.

pV = nRT

Data

p = 1.25 atm

V = 25.0 L

n = 2.10 mol

R = 0.082 06 L·atm·K⁻¹mol⁻¹

Calculations

1. Temperature in kelvins

$\begin{array} {rcl}pV & = & nRT\\\text{1.25 atm} \times \text{25.0 L} & = & \rm\text{2.10 mol} \times 0.08206 \text{ L}\cdot\text{atm}\cdot\text{K}^{-1}\text{mol}^{-1} \times T\\31.25&=&0.09847T\text{ K}^{-1}\\T& = &\dfrac{31.25}{\text{0.098 47 K}^{-1}}\\\\& = &\text{181 K}\end{array}$

2. Temperature in degrees Celsius

$\begin{array} {rcl}T & = & (181 - 273.15) \, ^{\circ}\text{C}\\& = & -92 \, ^{\circ}\text{C}\\\end{array}\\\text{The temperature of the gas is $\large \boxed{\mathbf{-92 \, ^{\circ}}\textbf{C}}$}$
