How many miles of a gas at 100 c does it take to fill a 1.00 l flask to a pressure of 152kPa
Hatshy [7]

The complete question is as follows: How many moles of a gas at 100 c does it take to fill a 1.00 l flask to a pressure of 152kPa

Answer: There are 0.0489 moles of a gas at 100^{o}C is required to fill a 1.00 l flask to a pressure of 152kPa.

Explanation:

Given: Volume = 1.00 L,    

Pressure = 152 kPa (1 kPa = 1000 Pa) = 152000 Pa

Convert Pa into atm as follows.

1 Pa = 9.86 \times 10^{-6} atm\\152000 Pa = 152000 \times \frac{9.86 \times 10^{-6}atm}{1 Pa}\\= 1.5 atm

Temperature = 100^{o}C = (100 + 273) K = 373 K

Using the ideal gas formula as follows.

PV = nRT

where,

P = pressure

V = volume

n = no. of moles

R = gas constant = 0.0821 L atm/mol K

T = temperature

Substitute the values into above formula as follows.

PV = nRT\\1.5 atm \times 1.0 L = n \times 0.0821 L atm/mol K \times 373 K\\n = \frac{1.5 atm \times 1.0 L}{0.0821 L atm/mol K \times 373 K}\\n = 0.0489 mol

Thus, we can conclude that there are 0.0489 moles of a gas at 100^{o}C is required to fill a 1.00 l flask to a pressure of 152kPa.

tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

different reactants

Explanation:

because if you think about it what's really thick and it takes a lot longer to burn a piece of paper is super fit material which can just tear real easily just by ripping it with your fingers so if you think about it how fast it burns it's not how big the molecules are because paper has smaller molecules than wood would so the paper burns faster in differently so it's probably the reactant it's made of

A student weighs 0.347 g of KHP on a laboratory balance. The KHP was titrated with NaOH and the concentration of the NaOH determ
V125BC [204]

Answer:

Following are the solution to the given question:

Explanation:

Each method through KHP is somewhat more precise since we have weighed that requisite quantity, we exactly know the KHP intensity appropriately. Its initial 6 M HCl concentration was never considered mandatory. They have probably prepared 6 M HCl solution although long ago and could have changed its concentration over even a period.
