A certain sample of a gas has a volume of 20 L at 0°C and 1 atm. A plot of the experimental data of its volume against the Celsi

us temperature, at constant P, gives a straight line of slope 0.0741 L(C)^-1. From these data alone (without making use of the perfect gas law), determine the absolute zero of temperature in degrees Celsius.

Answer:

-270 °C

Explanation:

The equation of a straight line in which y (dependent variable) is plotted against x (independent variable) is given as y = mx + b. Where m is the slope of the graph and b is the intercept (y value when x = 0).

Given that the volume (V) is plotted against the Celsius temperature (T). It can be represented by the function:

V = mT + b

m = slope = 0.0741 L(C)^-1, b = intercept (value of volume at temperature of 0°) = 20 L

Hence:

V = 0.0741T + 20

At absolute zero, V = 0 L, therefore:

0 = 0.0741T + 20

0.0741T = -20

T = -20 / 0.0741

T = -269.9

T ≅ -270 °C

Convert 16.8 L of nitrogen monoxide gas at STP to grams .
german

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

1 mole of a gas occupies 22.4 L

x moles occupies 16.8 L

x = 1 mole *  16.8 L/22.4 L

x = 0.75 moles

number of moles = mass/molar mass

mass =  number of moles  * molar mass

mass =  0.75 moles * 30.01 g/mol = 22.5075 g = 2.25 * 10^1 g

the coefficient of the scientific notation answer = 2.25

the exponent of the scientific notation answer = 1

significant figures are there in the answer = 6

the right most significant figure in the answer = 3

2.

number of moles = 12.5g/38g/mol = 0.3289 moles

1 mole occupies 22.4 L

0.3289 moles occupies 0.3289 moles * 22.4 L/1 mole

= 7.36736 L = 7.36736 * 10^0 L= 7.37 * 10^0 L

the coefficient of the scientific notation answer =7.37

the exponent of the scientific notation answer = 0

significant figures are there in the answer = 6

the right most significant figure in the answer= 3
