From the information presented in the question, the number of molecules present of water present is obtained 2.41 × 10^21 molecules.

From the information we have;

Volume of the damp air = 1 L

Pressure of the damp air = 741.0 torr or 0.975 atm

Temperature of the gas = 20 oC + 273 = 293 K

R = 0.082 atm LK-1mol-1

Number of moles = ?

n =PV/RT

n = 0.975 × 1/0.082 × 293

n = 0.041 moles

Volume of water vapor = 1 L

Temperature of water = -10 oC + 273 = 263 K

Pressure of the gas = 607.1 torr or 0.799 atm

R = 0.082 atm LK-1mol-1

n= PV/RT

n = 0.799 × 1/ 0.082 × 263

n = 0.037 moles

Number of moles of water = 0.041 moles - 0.037 moles = 0.004 moles

If 1 mole = 6.02 × 10^23 molecules

0.004 moles = 0.004 moles × 6.02 × 10^23 molecules/1 mole

= 2.41 × 10^21 molecules

When 10.0 grams of sulfur reacts with fluorine gas at a pressure of 2.69 atmosphere in a 5.00 L container at 0.00 degrees Celsiu

Gwar [14]

Answer:

74.1%

Explanation:

Based on the reaction:

S₈ + 16F₂ → 8SF₄

1 mole of sulfur reacts with 16 moles of F₂ to produce 8 moles of SF₄

To solve this question we must find the moles of each reactant in order to find the moles of SF₄. Thus, we can find the theoretical mass produced. Percent yield is:

Percent yield = Actual yield (25.0g) / Theoretical yield * 100

Moles S₈: 256.52g/mol

10.0g * (1mol / 256.52g) = 0.0390 moles

Moles F₂:

PV = nRT

PV/RT = n

Where P is pressure in atm, V is volume in liters, R is gas constant and T is absolute temperature (0°C = 273.15K)

2.69atm*5.00L / 0.082atmL/molK*273.15K = n

0.600 moles = n

For a complete reaction of 0.600 moles F₂ are required:

0.600mol F₂ * (1mol S₈ / 8 mol F₂) = 0.075 moles S₈

As there are just 0.0390 moles, S₈ is limiting reactant.

The theoretical moles and mass of SF₄ -Molar mass: 108.07g/mol- is:

0.0390 moles S₈ * (8mol SF₄ / 1mol S₈) = 0.312 moles SF₄ * (108.07g) =

33.7g

Percent yield = 25.0g / 33.7g * 100

= 74.1%
