In this situation, we can use the ideal gas equation which is PV = nRT

P = Pressure (atm)

V = Volume (L)

n = moles (mol)

R = constant (0.08206 atm-l/mol-K)

T = Temperature (K) ---> C + 273.15 = K

PV = nRT

n = PV/RT

= (7atm)(15L) / (0.08206 atm-l/mol-K)(23 + 273.15)

= 4.32 mol

Hope that helped!!!

3.65 gram of hcl is dissolved in 180 gram of water. Find the total number of molecules of hydrogen

Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

$Molec_{\ H_{tot}}=1.206x10^{25}molec$

Explanation:

Hello.

In this case, taking into account that HCl has one molecule of hydrogen per mole of compound which weights 36.45 g/mol, we compute the number of molecules of hydrogen in hydrochloric acid by considering the given mass and the Avogadro's number:

$molec_{\ H}=3.65gHCl*\frac{1molHCl}{36.45gHCl} *\frac{1molH}{1molHCl}*\frac{6.022x10^{23}molec_\ H}{1molH} =6.03x10^{22}molec$

Now, from the 180 g of water, we see two hydrogen molecules per molecule of water, thus, by also using the Avogadro's number we compute the molecules of hydrogen in water:

$molec_{\ H}=180gH_2O*\frac{1molH_2O}{18gH_2O} *\frac{2molH}{1molH_2O}*\frac{6.022x10^{23}molec_\ H}{1molH} =1.20x10^{25}molec$
