Answer:- 0.800 moles of the gas were collected.

Solution:- Volume, temperature and pressure is given for the gas and asks to calculate the moles of the gas.

It is an ideal gas law based problem. Ideal gas law equation is used to solve this. The equation is:

PV=nRT

Since it asks to calculate the moles that is n, so let's rearrange this for n:

n=\frac{PV}{RT}

V = 19.4 L

T = 17 + 273 = 290 K

P = 746 mmHg

we need to convert the pressure from mmHg to atm and for this we divide by 760 since, 1 atm = 760 mmHg

P=746mmHg(\frac{1atm}{760mmHg})

P = 0.982 atm

R = 0.0821\frac{atm.L}{mol.K}

Let's plug in the values in the equation to get the moles.

n=\frac{0.982atm*19.4L}{0.0821\frac{atm.L}{mol.K}*290K}

n = 0.800 moles

So, 0.800 moles of the gas were collected.

Which pH value represents a solution with the lowest OHM<br> ion concentration?
Arlecino [84]

pH value 1 represents a solution with the lowest OH⁻ion concentration.

<u>Explanation:</u>

pH is given by the expression as the negative logarithm to the base 10 of the concentration of hydrogen ions.

pH = -log₁₀[H⁺]

If the pH is lower than 7, pH < 7 then it is acidic

If the pH = 7, then it is neutral

If the pH > 7, then it is basic

If pH is 1 then the solution is showing mostly acidic character,which is least basic in its character.

So if the pH is 1, which is most acidic and least basic solution that is lowest OH⁻ ion concentration.

A chemist dissolves 699. mg of pure hydrobromic acid in enough water to make up 180. mL of solution. Calculate the pH of the sol
Sedaia [141]

Answer: 1.32

Explanation:

First, we must obtain the molar mass of HBr. After that, we try to obtain the concentration of the hydrobromic acid from the formula n=CV since the volume of solution and mass of acid was provided. Recall that n=m/M. If the concentration of acid is thus obtained, we make use of the fact that the concentration of H+ in the acid is equal to the molar concentration of HBr to obtain the pH. The pH is the negative logarithm of the concentration we obtained in the initial step.

Zinc metal is produced by heating solid zinc sulfide with solid wine witte resulting in liquid zinc and sulfur dioxide gas Write
elena-s [515]

Answer:

The balance chemical equation can be given as:

ZnS(s)+ZnSO_4(aq)\overset{heat}\rightarrow 2Zn(s)+2SO_2(g)

Explanation:

When zinc sulfide is allowed to react with zinc sulfate it gives zinc metal and sulfur dioxide gas as a product.The balance chemical equation can be given as:

ZnS(s)+ZnSO_4(aq)\overset{heat}\rightarrow 2Zn(s)+2SO_2(g)

According to reaction we can see when 1 mol of zinc sulfide reacts with 1 mol of zinc sulfate it forms 2 moles of zinc metal and 2 moles of sulfur dioxide gas.

During the distillation nitrogen gas is obtained first, then argon and oxygen. What can u say about the boiling points of these
svetlana [45]

Explanation:

The boiling point of liquid nitrogen, liquid argon, and liquid oxygen are -196°C, -186°C, and -183°C respectively. So, the correct order is nitrogen, argon, oxygen.
