Answer: The Henry's constant for oxygen gas is $3.81\times 10^{-2}g/L.atm$

Explanation:

To calculate the molar solubility, we use the equation given by Henry's law, which is:

$C_{O_2}=K_H\times p_{O_2}$

where,

$K_H$ = Henry's constant = ?

$C_{O_2}$ = molar solubility of oxygen gas = $0.590g/L$

$p_{O_2}$ = partial pressure of oxygen gas = 15.5 atm

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.590g/L=K_H\times 15.5atm\\\\K_H=\frac{0.590g/L}{15.5atm}=3.81\times 10^{-2}g/L.atm$

Hence, the Henry's constant for oxygen gas is $3.81\times 10^{-2}g/L.atm$

At 35.0°c and 3.00 atm pressure, a gas has a volume of 1.40 l. what pressure does the gas have at 0.00°c and a volume of 0.950 l

Leona [35]

Answer : The pressure of gas will be, 3.918 atm and the combined gas law is used for this problem.

Solution :

Combined gas law is the combination of Boyle's law, Charles's law and Gay-Lussac's law.

The combined gas equation is,

$\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2V_2}{T_2}$

where,

$P_1$ = initial pressure of gas = 3 atm

$P_2$ = final pressure of gas = ?

$V_1$ = initial volume of gas = 1.40 L

$V_2$ = final volume of gas = 0.950 L

$T_1$ = initial temperature of gas = $35^oC=273+35=308K$

$T_2$ = final temperature of gas = $0^oC=273+0=273K$

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get the final pressure of gas.

$\frac{3atm\times 1.40L}{308K}=\frac{P_2\times 0.950L}{273K}$

$P_2=3.918atm$

Therefore, the pressure of gas will be, 3.918 atm and the combined gas law is used for this problem.

PLS HELP THE QUESTION IS ON THE PICTURE

Concepts used:

1 mole of an element or a compound has 6.022 * 10²³ formula units

So, we can say that: Number of formula units = number of moles * 6.022*10²³

number of moles of an element or a compound = given mass/molar mass

__________________________________________________________

003 - Number of CaH₂ formula units in 6.065 grams

Number of Moles:

We know that the molar mass of CaH₂ is 42 grams/mol

Number of Moles of CaH₂ = given mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 6.065 / 42

Number of moles = 0.143 moles

Number of Formula units:

Number of formula units = number of moles * 6.022*10²³

= 0.143 * 6.022 * 10²³

= 0.86 * 10²³ formula units

__________________________________________________________

004 - Mass of 6.34 * 10²⁴ formula units of NaBF₄

Number of Moles:

We mentioned this formula before:

Number of formula units = number of moles * 6.022*10²³

Solving it for number of moles, we get:

Number of moles = Number of Formula units / 6.022* 10²³

replacing the variable

Number of moles = 6.34 * 10²⁴ / 6.022*10²³

Number of moles= 10.5 moles

Mass of 10.5 moles of NaBF₄:

Molar mass of NaBF₄ = 38 grams/mol

Mass of 10.5 moles = 10.5 * molar mass

Mass of 10.5 moles = 10.5 * 38

Mass = 399 grams

__________________________________________________________

005 - Number of moles in 9.78 * 10²¹ formula units of CeI₃

Number of Moles:

We have the formula:

Number of moles = Number of Formula units / 6.022* 10²³

replacing the variables

Number of Moles = 9.78 * 10²¹ / 6.022*10²³

Number of Moles = 1.6 / 10²

Number of Moles = 1.6 * 10⁻² moles OR 0.016 moles

How does an elements period number related to the number of the energy level of its valence electrons?

Mrac [35]

There is a direct correlation between the period number and the energy level for valence electrons. For example, the H and He elements, in period 1, have their outer electrons in the energy level "1". This continues down the rows: all the elements in period 2 have their principal energy level as n = 2, period 3 has n = 3, and so on.
