Poisonous carbon monoxide can be produced by furnaces in basements if the combustion and exhaust are not complete. Calculate the

density of carbon monoxide in g/L at 292 K and 1.00 atm of pressure to determine whether it is more or less dense than air. If it is more dense, it will remain in the basement; if it is less dense it will rise to the upper levels of the house. The density of dry air is 1.20 g/L.

Answer:

The Density of carbon monoxide is 1.17g/L. It is less dense than dry air which has a density of 1.20 g/L.

Therefore, the carbon monoxide will rise to the upper level of the house.

Explanation:

Step 1:

Data obtained from the question. This includes the following:

Temperature (T) = 292 K

Pressure (P) = 1 atm

Density of carbon monoxide =?

Density of air =?

Step 2:

Obtaining an expression for the density. This is illustrated below:

From the ideal gas equation:

PV = nRT (1)

Recall:

Number of mole (n) = mass (m)/molar mass (M)

n = m/M

Substitute the value of n into equation 1.

PV = nRT

PV = mRT/M

Divide both side by P

V = mRT/MP

Divide both side by m

V/m = RT/MP

Invert the equation

m/V = MP/RT (2)

Recall:

Density (ρ) = mass (m) / volume(V)

ρ = m/V

Replacing m/V with ρ in equation 2

m/V = MP/RT

ρ = MP/RT

Where R is the gas constant (0.082atm.L/Kmol)

M is Molar Mass of CO ( 12 + 16 = 28g/mol)

Step 3:

Determination of the density of carbon monoxide. The density of carbon monoxide can be obtained as follow:

T= 292 K

P = 1 atm

R = 0.082atm.L/Kmol

M = 28g/mol

Density (ρ) =?

ρ = MP/RT

ρ = (28 x 1) / (0.082 x 292)

ρ = 1.17g/L

The Density of carbon monoxide is 1.17g/L. It is less dense than dry air which has a density of 1.20 g/L.

Therefore, the carbon monoxide will rise to the upper level of the house

A monoprotic weak acid when dissolved in water is 0.66% dissociated and produces a solution with a pH of 3.04. Calculate the Ka
raketka [301]

Answer:

Ka = 6.02x10⁻⁶

Explanation:

The equilibrium that takes place is:

  • HA ⇄ H⁺ + A⁻
  • Ka = [H⁺][A⁻]/[HA]

We <u>calculate [H⁺] from the pH</u>:

  • pH = -log[H⁺]
  • [H⁺] = 10^{-pH}
  • [H⁺] = 9.12x10⁻⁴ M

Keep in mind that [H⁺]=[A⁻].

As for [HA], we know the acid is 0.66% dissociated, in other words:

  • [HA] * 0.66/100 = [H⁺]

We <u>calculate [HA]</u>:

  • [HA] = 0.138 M

Finally we <u>calculate the Ka</u>:

  • Ka = \frac{[9.12x10^{-4}]*[9.12x10^{-4}]}{[0.138]} = 6.02x10⁻⁶

A cylinder contains 250 g of Helium at 200 K. The external pressure is constant at 1 atm. The temperature of the system is raise
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

There is 96200 J or 96 kJ of heat released.

Explanation:

<u>Step 1: </u>Data given

Mass of helium = 250 grams

Temperature = 200 K

Temperature is raised by 74 K

The heat capacity of helium = 20.8 J/mol*K

Molecular weight for helium = 4 g/mol

<u>Step 2:</u> Calculate moles of Helium

Moles of Helium = mass of Helium / molar mass of helium

Moles of helium = 250 grams / 4g/mol

Moles of helium = 62.5 moles

<u>Step 3:</u> Calculate heat

Q = n*c*ΔT  or

⇒ with Q = the heat released in Joule

⇒ with n = moles of helium = 62.5 moles

⇒ with c = the heat capacity of helium = 20.8 J/mol*K

⇒ with ΔT = the change in temperature = T2 - T1 = 74 K

Q = 62.5 mol * 20.8 J/mol*K * 74 K

Q = 96200 J = 96 kJ

Since the temperature is raised, this is an exothermic reaction. The heat is released.

There is 96200 J or 96 kJ of heat released.

What will be the volume occupied by 2.5 moles of nitrogen gas exerting 1.75 atm of pressure at 475K?
Marina86 [1]

Answer:

THE VOLUME OF THE NITROGEN GAS AT 2.5  MOLES , 1.75 ATM AND 475 K IS 55.64 L

Explanation:

Using the ideal gas equation

PV = nRT

P = 1.75 atm

n = 2.5 moles

T = 475 K

R = 0.082 L atm/mol K

V = unknown

Substituting the variables into the equation we have:

V = nRT / P

V = 2.5 * 0.082 * 475 / 1.75

V = 97.375 / 1.75

V = 55.64 L

The volume of the 2.5 moles of nitrogen gas exerted by 1.75 atm at 475 K is 55.64 L
