Natural gas is almost entirely methane. A container with a volume of 2.65L holds 0.120mol of methane. What will the volume be if

mrs_skeptik [129]

The final volume of the methane gas in the container is 6.67 L.

The given parameters;

initial volume of gas in the container, V₁ = 2.65 L
initial number of moles of gas, n₁ = 0.12 mol
additional concentration, n = 0.182 mol

The total number of moles of gas in the container is calculated as follows;

$n_t = 0.12 + 0.182 = 0.302 \ mol$

The final volume of gas in the container is calculated as follows;

$PV = nRT\\\\\frac{V}{n} = \frac{RT}{P} \\\\\frac{V_1}{n_1} = \frac{V_2}{n_2} \\\\V_2 = \frac{V_1 n_2}{n_1} \\\\V_2 = \frac{2.65 \times 0.302}{0.12} \\\\V_2 = 6.67 \ L$

Thus, the final volume of the methane gas in the container is 6.67 L.

Why must contact lenses be removed before you enter a chemistry laboratory?

RUDIKE [14]

The vapors of some chemicals used in the chemistry laboratory, especially isocyanates, can react and bond the contact lens to the eye.

(FYI - the family of isocyanates include Superglue..I wouldn't want to have been the person who discovered this unfortunate reaction!)
