The organic compound di‑n‑butyl phthalate, C 16 H 22 O 4 ( l ) , C16H22O4(l), is sometimes used as a low‑density ( 1.046 g ⋅ mL

− 1 ) (1.046 g⋅mL−1) manometer fluid. Compute the pressure in torr of a gas that supports a 459 mm 459 mm column of di‑n‑butyl phthalate. The density of mercury is 13.53 g ⋅ mL − 1

Answer:

36.63 Torr

Explanation:

You need to use two expressions, one for pressure and the other with the relation of density and height of the column.

For the pressure:

P = h * d * g  (1)

h is height.

d density

g gravity

The second expression put a relation between the densities and height of the column so:

d1/d2 = h1/h2 (2)

let 1 be the phthalate, and 2 the mercury.

Let's calculate first the relation of density:

d1/d2 = 13.53 / 1.046 = 12.93

Now with the first expression, we can calculate the pressure so:

P = hdg

We have two compounds so,

h1d1g = h2d2g ---> gravity cancels out

From here, we can solve for h2:

h2 = h1*(d1/d2)

replacing:

h2 = 459 / 12.53

h2 = 36.63 mm

1 mmHg is 1 torr, therefore the pressure of the gas in Torr would be 36.63 Torr

What would the volume of gas be at 150 c if it had a volume of 693 ml at 45 c​
marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

\boxed{\text{922 mL}}

Explanation:

The pressure is constant, so we can use Charles' Law to calculate the volume.

\dfrac{V_{1}}{T_{1}} = \dfrac{V_{2}}{T_{2}}

Data:

V₁ = 693 mL; T₁ =  45 °C

V₂ = ?;           T₂ = 150 °C

Calculations:

(a) Convert temperature to kelvins

T₁ = (  45 + 273.15) = 318.15 K

T₂ = (150 + 273.15) = 423.15 K

(b) Calculate the volume

\dfrac{ 693}{318.15} = \dfrac{ V_{2}}{423.15}\\\\2.178 = \dfrac{ V_{2}}{423.15}\\\\V_{2} = 2.178 \times 423.15 = \boxed{\textbf{922 mL}}

carbon dioxide at 25 degrees celsius and 101.3 kpa has a density of 1.799 kg/m^3 determine gas constant
dusya [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Temperature of gas in absolute scale T = 25 + 273 = 298 .

pressure of gas P = 1.013 x 10⁵ N / m²

density D = 1.799 kg / m³

= 1799 g / m³

From gas formula

PV / T = n R Where P is pressure , V is volume and T is absolute temperature , n is no of moles

P / T = n R / V

P / T = m R /M V where m is mass of gas and M is molecular weight .

m / V = D ( density )

P / T = DR/ M  

PM / DT = R

Putting the values

1.013 x 10⁵ x 44  /  (1799 x 298)

R = 8.314.09 J / K mole
