Balance of Atoms Quick Check

When iron rusts and forms iron oxide, the iron oxide has more mass than the iron because there are more iron atoms in iron oxide than in pure iron.

The process of rust occurs when pure iron is exposed to air and moisture. Rust is the oxidation of pure iron to iron II oxide (Fe2O3).

We can see that there are two iron atoms per mole of Fe2O3 whereas there is only one iron atom in each mole of pure iron.

Therefore, iron oxide has more mass than the iron because there are more iron atoms in iron oxide than in pure iron.

Determine the temperature of 1.42 mol of a gas contained in a 3.00-L container at a pressure of 123 kPa

Rashid [163]

Answer:

The temperature is 30,92K

Explanation:

We use the formula PV=nRT. We convert the unit of pressure in kPa into atm.

101,325kPa----1atm

121kPa-------x=(121,3kPax 1 atm)/101,325kPa=1, 2 atm

PV=nRT---->T= (PV)/(RT)

T=(1,2 atm x 3L)/(1,42 mol x 0,082 l atm/K mol )= 30, 91721058 K
