The density of water at 30.0 °C is 0.9956 g/mL. If the specific gravity of acetic acid is 1.040 at 30.0 °C, what is the density
mash [69]

Answer:

The density of acetic acid at 30°C = 1.0354_g/mL

Explanation:

specific gravity of acetic acid = (Density of acetic acid at 30°C) ÷ (Density of water at 30°C)

Therefore, the density of acetic acid at 30°C = (Density of water at 30°C) × (Specific gravity of acetic acid at 30°C)

= 0.9956 g/mL × 1.040

= 1.0354_g/mL

Specific gravity, which is also known as relative density, is the ratio of the density of a substance to the density of a specified standard substance.

Generally the standard substance of to which other solid and liquid substances are compared is water which has a density of 1.0 kg per litre or 62.4 pounds/cubic foot at 4 °C (39.2 °F) while gases are normally compared with dry air, with a density of 1.29 grams/litre or 1.29 ounces/cubic foot under standard conditions of a temperature of 0 °C and one standard atmospheric pressure

A 100.0mL bubble of hot gases at 225 C and 1.80 atm escapes from an active volcano, what is the new volume of the bubble outside
Inessa05 [86]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

112.08 mL

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

From the question we are given;

  • Initial volume, V1 = 100.0 mL
  • Initial temperature, T1 = 225°C, but K = °C + 273.15

thus, T1 = 498.15 K

  • Initial pressure, P1 = 1.80 atm
  • Final temperature , T2 = -25°C

                                     = 248.15 K

  • Final pressure, P2 = 0.80 atm

We are required to calculate the new volume of the gases;

  • According to the combined gas law equation;

\frac{P1V1}{T1}=\frac{P2V2}{T2}

Rearranging the formula;

V2=\frac{P1V1T2}{T1P2}

Therefore;

V2=\frac{(1.80atm)(100mL)(248.15K)}{(498.15K)(0.80atm)}

V2=112.08mL

Therefore, the new volume of the gas is 112.08 mL
