C. a scientific approach to answering questions
The molecules of hydrogen gas that are formed is when 48.7 g of sodium are added to water is 6.375 x 10²³ molecules
<u><em>calculation</em></u>
2 Na +2H₂O → 2 NaOH +H₂
Step 1: find the moles of sodium (Na)
moles =mass÷ molar mass
from periodic table the molar mass of Na = 23 g/mol
moles= 48.7 g÷ 23 g/mol =2.117 moles
Step 2:use the mole ratio to determine the moles of H₂
from given equation Na:H₂ is 2:1
therefore the moles of H₂ = 2.117 moles x 1/2=1.059 moles
Step 3: find the molecules of H₂ using the Avogadro's law
According to Avogadro's law 1 mole = 6.02 x 10²³ molecules
1.059 moles = ? molecules
by cross multiplication
= [(1.059 moles x 6.02 x10²³ molecules) / 1 mole] =6.375 x 10²³ molecules
Each compound will be neutral
There are several information's already given in the question. Based on the information's the answer can be easily deduced.
We know the formula
<span>P1*V1/T1 = P2*V2/T2
</span>
As the temperature is constant, so T1 and T2 can be negated. The formula changes to
<span>P1*V1 = P2*V2
</span>70 * 1 = 540 * V2
270/540 = V2
<span>V2 = 0.5
</span>
From the above deduction, we can conclude that the new volume is 0.5 liters. I hope that the procedure is clear enough for you to understand.
