This equation represents a single replacement reaction. Single replacement reactions consist of one element reacting with one compound on the reactant side (left side of the equation) and they form one new element and one new compound on the product side of the equation (right side).
<u>Given:</u>
Moles of He = 15
Moles of N2 = 5
Pressure (P) = 1.01 atm
Temperature (T) = 300 K
<u>To determine:</u>
The volume (V) of the balloon
<u>Explanation:</u>
From the ideal gas law:
PV = nRT
where P = pressure of the gas
V = volume
n = number of moles of the gas
T = temperature
R = gas constant = 0.0821 L-atm/mol-K
In this case we have:-
n(total) = 15 + 5 = 20 moles
P = 1.01 atm and T = 300K
V = nRT/P = 20 moles * 0.0821 L-atm/mol-K * 300 K/1.01 atm = 487.7 L
Ans: Volume of the balloon is around 488 L
Decomposition reaction D. 2H20⇒ 2H2 + O2
<h3>Further explanation
</h3>
Every chemical reaction involves a compound consisting of reactants and products
Reactants are compounds that react and form new compounds called products
There are several forms of reactions that can occur, including single replacement, double replacement, synthesis, decomposition, etc.
A. 2C2H6 + 702 ⇒ 4CO2 + 6H20
Combustion : reaction of Hydrocarbon and Oxygen
B. AgNO3 + LiCl → AgCl + LINO3
Double replacement : there is an ion exchange between two ion compounds in the reactant to form two new ion compounds in the product
C. Ca + MgS → CaS + Mg
Single replacement :one element replaces the other elements of a compound to produce new elements and compounds
D. 2H20⇒ 2H2 + O2
Decomposition : One compound breaks down into 2 components
Possible answer could be: P/T = k
