Find the volume of a gas STP if it’s volume is 80.0 mL at 109 kpa and-12.5c

photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

Approximately $8.38 \times 10^8\; \rm mL$ , which is the same as $8.38 \times 10^5 \; \rm L$ . Assumption: the behavior of this gas is ideal.

Explanation:

Initial state of the gas:

$T_\text{initial} = -12.5\; \rm ^\circ C = (-12.5 + 273.15)\; \rm K = 260.65\; \rm K$ .
$P_\text{initial} = \; \rm 10^9\; \rm kPa = 10^{12}\; \rm Pa$ .

STP state:

$T_\text{STP} = 0\; \rm ^\circ C = 273.15\; \rm K$ .
$P_\text{STP} = 10^5\; \rm Pa$ .

The initial state of this gas can be changed to STP state in two steps:

First, reduce the pressure from $10^{12}\; \rm Pa$ to $10^5\; \rm Pa$ .
Second, increase the temperature from $260.65\; \rm K$ to $273.15\; \rm K$ .

Assume that the gas acts like an ideal gas at all time. Also, assume that the number of gas particles did not change.

Assume that temperature stays the same when the pressure changes from $10^{12}\; \rm Pa$ to $10^5\; \rm Pa$ . By Boyle's Law, volume is inversely proportional to pressure when all other factors stay the same. In other words,

$\begin{aligned}V_\text{intermediate} &= V_\text{initial} \cdot \displaystyle \frac{P_{\text{initial}}}{P_{\text{STP}}} \\ &= 80.0\; \rm mL \times \frac{10^{12}\; \rm Pa}{10^5\; \rm Pa} = 8.00 \times 10^8\; \rm mL\end{aligned}$ .

After that, assume that pressure stays the same when the temperature changes from $\rm 260.65\; \rm K$ to $\rm 273.15\; \rm K$ . By Charles's Law, volume is proportional to pressure when all other factors stay the same. In other words,

$\begin{aligned}V_\text{STP} &= V_\text{intermediate} \cdot \displaystyle \frac{T_{\text{STP}}}{T_{\text{initial}}} \\ &= 8.00 \times 10^8\; \rm mL \times \frac{273.15\; \rm K}{260.65\; \rm K} \\ &\approx 8.38\times 10^8\; \rm mL = 8.38 \times 10^5\; \rm L\end{aligned}$ .

An electrically neutral atom has an atomic mass of 30.973 and an atomic number of 15. How many neutrons does this atom have?____

Serggg [28]

Answer: 16 neutrons

Explanation: The atomic number for any element is the number of protons in its atomic nuclei. In a neutral atom, the number of electrons are the same as the number of protons. The atomic mass (mass number) is the sum of the protons and neutrons in the nucleus. Mass number can vary due to the fact that the number of neutrons can vary. Isotopes are named for their mass numbers.

So, this element has 15 protons (atomic number), 15 electrons, and 16 neutrons (mass number minus atomic number).

This isotope is phosphorus-31, which has atomic number 15.

A gas has a temperature of 273.15 k and a pressure of 101.325 kpa. what can be concluded about the gas?

FromTheMoon [43]

We are given with a <span>temperature of 273.15 Kelvin and a pressure of 101.325 kPa. Using PV=nRT rule of ideal gas, where P is pressure, V is volume, n is the number of moles, R is the gas constant and T is temperature, we can conclude that the conditions are under STP(standard temp and pressure) and one mole of this gas occupies 22.4 L of volume.</span>

Which is the correct chemical equation for the following statement? “Sodium reacts with oxygen in a 2 to 1 ratio to produce sodi

den301095 [7]

I think answer youre looking for is 2Na+O->Na2O . But sadly it is wrong since we dont use atomic oxygen in reactions. It should be rather
4Na+O2 => 2Na2O but it doesnt correspond to ratios given.
