An open flask sitting in a lab fridge looks empty, but we know that actually it is filled with a mixture of gases called air. if

the flask volume is 1.50 l, and the air is at standard temperature and pressure, how many gaseous molecules does the flask contain?

Use ideal gas law PV=nRT
at STP, pressure is 1atm and temperature is 273K (0 Celsius)
1×1.5L=n × 0.0821 × 273
n is moles and R is ideal gas law constant, always 0.0821
moles= 14.9422(6.02×10^23 molecules)=9.0×10^24 molecules

How many grams of iron(II) chloride are needed to produce 44.3 g iron(II) phosphate in the presence of excess sodium phosphate?
zalisa [80]

Answer:

47.2 g

Explanation:

Let's consider the following double displacement reaction.

3 FeCl₂ + 2 Na₃PO₄ → Fe₃(PO₄)₂ + 6 NaCl

The molar mass of Fe₃(PO₄)₂ is 357.48 g/mol. The moles corresponding to 44.3 g are:

44.3 g × (1 mol / 357.48 g) = 0.124 mol

The molar ratio of Fe₃(PO₄)₂ to FeCl₂ is 1:3. The moles of FeCl₂ are:

3 × 0.124 mol = 0.372 mol

The molar mass of FeCl₂ is 126.75 g/mol. The mass of FeCl₂ is:

0.372 mol × (126.75 g/mol) = 47.2 g

Certain hydrocarbon is 92.3 % carbon and 7.7 % hydrogen by mass.If the molar mass of the hydrocarbon is approximately 40 g/mol,
zimovet [89]

Answer:

The hydrocarbon has a molecular formula of C3H3

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Suppose the mass of the compound is 100 grams

A hydrocarbon contains:

 ⇒ 92.3 % carbon = 92.3 grams

 ⇒ 7.7 % hydrogen = 7.7 grams

Molar mass of the compound is 40 g/mol

Molar mass of carbon = 12.01 g/mol

Molar mass of hydrogen = 1.01 g/mol

Step 2: Calculate moles

Moles = mass / molar mass

Moles carbon = 92.3 grams / 12.01 g/mol

Moles carbon = 7.69 moles

Moles hydrogen = 7.70 grams / 1.01 g/mol

Moles hydrogen = 7.62

Step 3: Calculate mol ratio

We divide by the smallest amount of moles

Carbon: 7.69/7.62 = 1

Hydrogen: 7.62/7.62 = 1

The empirical formula is CH

The molar mass is 13.02 g/mol

Step 4: Calculate the molecular formula

n = 40 g/mol / 13.02 g/mol

n ≈ 3

We need to multiply the empirical formula by 3 to get the molecular formula

Molecular formula = 3*(CH) = C3H3

The hydrocarbon is C3H3

Explain why fluorine has a smaller atomic radius than both oxygen and chlorine
Alex777 [14]

Answer:

1) Has a smaller radius than oxygen because of the increased electromagnetic attraction of the nuclei

2) Has a smaller radius than chlorine because all the electrons of F have lower energy levels and have less repulsion of other electrons and hence are more attracted to the nuclei .

Explanation:

Further the electrons are from the nuclei , the bigger the atomic radius is.

(+) attraction of electrons to the nuclei, (-) repulsion of the electrons away from the nuclei.

1) From O to F:

(+) there is one more proton --> Stronger positive charge of the nuclei means that the electrons are attracted more , then they come closer to it and therefore the radius decreases

(-) There is one more electron --> Every electron is repulsed by others away from the nuclei --> the radius increases. But this effect is not so strong because the new electron is added at the same energy level.

Overall the (+) effect is stronger than the (-) effect --> Radius decreases from O to F

2) From F to Cl

(+) there is one more protons --> Same effect as before

(-) There is one more electron --> Every electron is repulsed by others away from the nuclei. But this time the new electrons have a higher energy level --> Meaning that they are less attracted and hence the radius increases.

And also the other inner layers of electrons (electrons of lower energy levels) repulse this new external layer of electrons more effectively than the case of O  --> Strong repulsion effect (called electron shielding effect) --> Radius increases

Overall the (-) effect is stronger than the (+) effect --> Radius increases from F to Cl  (or decreases from Cl to F)

According to the kinetic molecular theory, which statement describes an ideal gas?
djverab [1.8K]
The correct answer is option 3. There are no attractive forces between the gas particles in an ideal gas. For an ideal gas to be achieved, the molecules are far from each other as possible where no attraction or collisions happen with each molecule.
