Carbon monoxide (CO) detectors sound an alarm when peak levels of carbon monoxide reach 100 parts per million (ppm). This level

roughly corresponds to a composition of air that contains 400,000 /(/mu/)g carbon monoxide per cubic meter of air (400,000 /(/mu/)g/m3). Assuming the dimensions of a room are 18 ft x 12 ft x 8 ft, estimate the mass (in grams) of carbon monoxide in the room that would register 100 ppm on a carbon monoxide detector. (1 meter = 3.28 feet)

Answer:

19.61kg

Explanation:

The first thing to do is divide the amount of feet into 3.28:

18ft*12ft*8ft=5.49m*3.66m*2.44m

With this information, we calculate the volume:

V=5.49m*3.66m*2.44m=49.03m^{3}

As we have the concentration and the volume, we can calculate the mass of CO:

m=400,000 \mu g/m^{3}*49.03m^{3}=19611158.4 \mu g

As this is a very big number, we can express it in kg by dividing in 10^6:

19611158.4 \mu g/10^{6}=19.61 kg

The pressure on a sample of gas is increased from 1.0 atm to 3.0 atm. If the new volume is 0.52 L, find the original volume.
swat32

Answer: 1.56 ATM

Explanation: if we assume temperature is constant, gas obeys

Boyles law pV= constant. Then p1·V1= p2·V2. And V1 = p2V2/p1

= 3.0 atm·0,52 l / 1.0 atm

Which one of the following statements is FALSE? a In a neutralization reaction, an acid reacts with base to produce a salt and H
pishuonlain [190]

Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

HF is a weak acid and not a strong acid. This is because fluorine is a highly electronegative atom and when it combines with a hydrogen atom then it will attract the valence electron of hydrogen atom more towards itself.

As a result, it will not dissociates easily to give hydrogen ion. Hence, it acts as a weak acid.

A neutralization reaction is defined as a reaction in which an acid reacts with a base to give salt and water. For example, HCl + NaOH \rightarrow NaCl + H_{2}O

It is true that, spectator ions "appear in the total ionic equation for a reaction, but not in the net ionic equation".

Titration is defined as a process in which concentration of an unknown solution is determined using a solution of known concentration.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement HF, HCl, and HNO3 are all examples of strong acids, is false.
