Answer:

40.g CaH2

Explanation:

1. ideal gas law(PV = nRT) → use ideal gas law first when volume is given

P = 0.995atm

V = 48.0L H2

n = ?

R = 0.0821L atm/molK

T = 32 + 273 = 305K

n = (0.995atm x 48.0L H2)/(0.0821L atm/molK x 305K) → do not simplify as small decimals might change the answer

2. Conversions

2 H2 and 1 CaH2 → 1/2

(mole of H2) x 1/2 x (molar mass of CaH2)

(0.995atm x 48.0L H2)/(0.0821L atm/molK x 305K) x 1/2 x (40.08 + 2.02) = 40.g CaH2

the longer answer will be 40.14887882 but as the minimum sigfig given in the question is 2, it is 40.g CaH2.

Hope it helped!

Description of how the combined gas law must be modified to introduce the number of moles
telo118 [61]
So the ideal gas law is pv=nrt
The letter n stands for the number of moles. divide both side by rt to isolate.
pv/rt=n

Why increasing the temperature of a gas would increase the volume of its container in gas law?
Zarrin [17]

When the amount of gas in a container is increased, the volume increases. Lussac's law states that the pressure of a given amount of gas held at constant volume is directly proportional to the Kelvin temperature.

Identify which statement describes the following process. 2Ce + 3Cu2+ → 3Cu + 2Ce3+
Georgia [21]
Answer: <span>A-Ce is oxidized because it is losing electrons and Cu is reduced because it is gaining electrons</span><span>.

</span>There are two reactions in the equation, oxidation and reduction. A molecule that oxidized will lose electrons while the molecule that reduced will gain electrons. In this case, Cu2+ changed into Cu which means its oxidation number reduced from +2 into 0. Ce oxidation number increased from 0 into +3

(4) Calculate the % of a compound that can be removed from liquid phase 1 by using ONE to FOUR extractions with a liquid phase 2
maksim [4K]

Answer:

One extraction: 50%

Two extractions: 75%

Three extractions: 87.5%

Four extractions: 93.75%

Explanation:

The following equation relates the fraction q of the compound left in volume V₁ of phase 1 that is extracted n times with volume V₂.

qⁿ = (V₁/(V₁ + KV₂))ⁿ

We also know that V₂ = 1/2(V₁) and K = 2, so these expressions can be substituted into the above equation:

qⁿ = (V₁/(V₁ + 2(1/2V₁))ⁿ = (V₁/(V₁ + V₁))ⁿ =  (V₁/(2V₁))ⁿ = (1/2)ⁿ

When n = 1, q = 1/2, so the fraction removed from phase 1 is also 1/2, or 50%.

When n = 2, q = (1/2)² = 1/4, so the fraction removed from phase 1 is (1 - 1/4) = 3/4 or 75%.

When n = 3, q = (1/2)³ = 1/8, so the fraction removed from phase 1 is (1 - 1/8) = 7/8 or 87.5%.

When n = 4, q = (1/2)⁴ = 1/16, so the fraction removed from phase 1 is (1 - 1/16) = 15/16 or 93.75%.
