Answer:

<em> Pressure exerted by the gas is 574.85 torr</em>

Explanation:

Atmospheric pressure = 751 torr

but 1 torr = 1 mmHg

therefore,

atmospheric pressure = 751 mmHg

1 mmHg = 133.3 Pa

therefore,

atmospheric pressure = 751 x 133.3 = 100108.3 Pa

distance labeled (tube section with mercury) = 176 mm

the pressure within the tube will be

P_{tube} = ρgh

where ρ is the density of mercury = 13600 kg/m^3

h is the labeled distance = 176 mm = 0.176 m

g is acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s^2

P_{tube}  = 13600 x 9.81 x 0.176 = 23481.216 Pa

The general equation for the pressure in the manometer will be

P_{atm} = P_{tube} + P_{gas}

where P_{atm}  is the atmospheric pressure

P_{tube}  is the pressure within the tube with mercury

P_{gas} is the pressure of the gas

substituting, we have

100108.3 = 23481.216 + P_{gas}

P_{gas} = 100108.3 - 23481.216 = <em>76627.1 Pa</em>

This pressure can be stated in mmHg as

76627.1 /133.3 =<em> 574.85 mmHg </em>

and also equal to<em> 574.85 torr</em>

Convert 3.30 g of copper (II) hydroxide Cu(OH)2 to molecules.
ratelena [41]

Answer:

0.18× 10²³ molecules

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of copper hydroxide = 3.30 g

Number of molecules = ?

Solution:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 3.30 g/97.56 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.03 mol

Avogadro number:

The given problem will solve by using Avogadro number.

It is the number of atoms , ions and molecules in one gram atom of element, one gram molecules of compound and one gram ions of a substance.  The number 6.022 × 10²³ is called Avogadro number.

1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ molecules

0.03 mol × 6.022 × 10²³ molecules / 1mol

0.18× 10²³ molecules
