if a bacterial culture produces 60.0 mL of methane gas at 700.0 mm Hg, what volume would be produced at 760.0 mmHg

1 answer:

6 0

P1 x V1/ T1 = P2 x V2/ T2 works for all gas problems.
In this case the temperature is constant so
P1 x V1 = P2 x V2
700.0 x 60.0 = 760.0 x Answer
700.0 x 60.0/ 760.0 = Answer

A sample of 9.27 g9.27 g of solid calcium hydroxide is added to 38.5 mL38.5 mL of 0.500 M0.500 M aqueous hydrochloric acid. Writ

Answer: The excess reagent for the given chemical reaction is calcium hydroxide and the amount left after the completion of reaction is 0.115375 moles. The amount of calcium chloride formed in the reaction is 1.068 grams.

Explanation:

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$ ....(1)

For calcium hydroxide:

Given mass of calcium hydroxide = 9.27 g

Molar mass of calcium hydroxide = 74.093 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\text{Moles of calcium hydroxide}=\frac{9.27g}{74.093g/mol}=0.125mol$

To calculate the moles of a solute, we use the equation:

$\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}}{\text{Volume of solution (in L)}}$

We are given:

Volume of hydrochloric acid = 38.5mL = 0.0385 L (Conversion factor: 1 L = 1000 mL)

Molarity of the solution = 0.500 moles/ L

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.500mol/L=\frac{\text{Moles of hydrochloric acid}}{0.0385L}\\\\\text{Moles of hydrochloric acid}=0.01925mol$

For the given chemical equation:

$2HCl(aq.)+Ca(OH)_2(s)\rightarrow CaCl_2(s)+2H_2O(l)$

Here, the solid salt is calcium chloride.

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of hydrochloric acid reacts with 1 mole of calcium hydroxide.

So, 0.01925 moles of hydrochloric acid will react with = $\frac{1}{2}\times 0.01925=0.009625moles$ of calcium hydroxide.

As, given amount of calcium hydroxide is more than the required amount. So, it is considered as an excess reagent.

Thus, hydrochloric acid is considered as a limiting reagent because it limits the formation of product.

Amount of excess reagent (calcium hydroxide) left = 0.125 - 0.01925 = 0.115375 moles

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of hydrochloric acid produces 1 mole of calcium chloride.

So, 0.01925 moles of hydrochloric acid will produce = $\frac{1}{2}\times 0.01925=0.009625moles$ of calcium chloride.

Now, calculating the mass of calcium chloride from equation 1, we get:

Molar mass of calcium chloride = 110.98 g/mol

Moles of calcium chloride = 0.009625 moles

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$0.009625mol=\frac{\text{Mass of calcium chloride}}{110.98g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of calcium chloride}=1.068g$

Hence, the excess reagent for the given chemical reaction is calcium hydroxide and the amount left after the completion of reaction is 0.115375 moles. The amount of calcium chloride formed in the reaction is 1.068 grams.

How do you balance the chemical equation CH4+ O2= CO2+ 4H2O

viva [34]

$CH4+O2=CO2+4H20$

now split the equation in half

CH4+O2 I CO2 + 4H2O

C = 1 I C = 1

H = 4 I H = 8

O = 2 I O = 3

CH4+ 2O2 = CO2 + 2H20

How many liters of oxygen gas, at standard

Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

Explanation:

For the balanced reaction:

4Fe(s) + 3O₂(g) → 2Fe₂O₃(s).

It is clear that 4 mol of Fe react with 3 mol of O₂ to produce 2 mol of Fe₂O₃.

Firstly, we need to calculate the no. of moles of 35.8 grams of Fe metal:

no. of moles of Fe = mass/molar mass = (35.8 g)/(55.845 g/mol) = 0.64 mol.

Now, we can find the no. of moles of O₂ is needed to react with the proposed amount of Fe:

Using cross multiplication:

4 mol of Fe is needed to react with → 3 mol of O₂, from stichiometry.

0.64 mol of Fe is needed to react with → ??? mol of O₂.

∴ The no. of moles of O₂ needed = (3 mol)(0.64 mol)/(4 mol) = 0.48 mol.

Finally, we can get the volume of oxygen using the information:

It is known that 1 mole of any gas occupies 22.4 L at standard P and T (STP).

Using cross multiplication:

1 mol of O₂ occupies → 22.4 L, at STP conditions.

0.48 mol of O₂ occupies → ??? L.

∴ The no. of liters of O₂ = (0.48 mol)(22.4 L)/(1 mol) = 10.752 L.

If i were to put cesium in water and francium in a tub of water which one would explode first?

hoa [83]

Well according to me Cesium releases enough energy that even a small piece blows up in water. Francium is below cesium on the table and would react more readily and violently.
