Tell whether the statement is TRUE or FALSE. Air pressure is gravity pulling down on air molecules.

1 answer:

8 0

True
Pressure is the force per unit area on an object. The force in the case of air pressure is the weight of the air molecules; therefore, the air pressure is essentially due to gravity pulling down air molecules.

A compound has an empirical formula of CH2 and a molar mass of 56 g. What is its molecular formula?

kipiarov [429]

Answer:

C4H8

Explanation:

First find the molar mass of CH2;

2(1.01) + 1(12.01) = 14.03g

Now divide the molar mass of the compound by the molar mass of CH2;

56g/14.03g = 3.9914 Round to nearest whole number = 4

Multiply CH2 by 4 to get the molecular formula;

CH2* 4 = C4H8

Gallium is produced by the electrolysis of a solution made by dissolving gallium oxide in concentrated NaOH ( aq ) . Calculate t

Sedbober [7]

Answer:

Approximately $6.30\times 10^{-3}\;\rm mol$ .

Explanation:

The gallium here is likely to be produced from a $\rm NaGaO_2\, (aq)$ solution using electrolysis. However, the problem did not provide a chemical equation for that process. How many electrons will it take to produce one mole of gallium?

Note the Roman Numeral " $\mathtt{(III)}$ " next to $\rm Ga$ . This numeral indicates that the oxidation state of the gallium in this solution is equal to $+3$ . In other words, each gallium atom is three electrons short from being neutral. It would take three electrons to reduce one of these atoms to its neutral, metallic state in the form of $\rm Ga\, (s)$ .

As a result, it would take three moles of electrons to deposit one mole of gallium atoms from this gallium $\mathtt{(III)}$ solution.

How many electrons are supplied? Start by finding the charge on all the electrons in the unit coulomb. Make sure all values are in their standard units.

$t = \rm 80.0\; min = 80.0\; min \times 60\;s \cdot min^{-1} = 4800\; s$ .

$Q = I \cdot t = \rm 0.380 \; A \times 4800 \; s = 1.824\times 10^3\; C$ .

Calculate the number of electrons in moles using the Faraday's constant. This constant gives the size of the charge (in coulombs) on each mole of electrons.

$\begin{aligned} n(\text{electrons}) &= \frac{Q}{F} \cr &= \rm \dfrac{1.824\times 10^3\; C}{96485.332\; C \cdot mol^{-1}}\cr &\approx \rm 1.89\times 10^{-2}\; mol \end{aligned}$ .

It takes three moles of electrons to deposit one mole of gallium atoms $\rm Ga\, (s)$ . As a result, $\rm 1.89\times 10^{-2}\; mol$ of electrons would deposit $\displaystyle \rm \frac{1}{3}\times 1.89\times 10^{-2}\; mol \approx 6.30\times 10^{-3}\; mol$ of gallium atoms $\rm Ga\, (s)$ .
