The mass of 322 mL of hydrogen gas at 4.0 atm and –73°C is 1.21 grams. What is the density of hydrogen gas at STP?

1 answer:

7 0

To be able to answer this item, we assume that the given hydrogen gas is ideal such that we are able to use the Ideal Gas equation,
PV = nRT
At STP, the values of volume, pressure, and temperature are 22.4 L, 1 atm, and 273.15 K. Solving for n,
n = (1 atm x 22.4 L) / (0.0821 L.atm/mol K x 273.15 K)
n = 0.9988 mols
Each mol of hydrogen gas is 2 g.
m = (0.9988 mols) x (2 g/1 mol)
m = 1.9977 g
Density is the quotient of mass and volume,
density = 1.9977 g/ 22400 mL
density = 8.92 x 10^-5 g/mL

What is the volume, in liters, of 1.40 mol of oxygen gas at 20.0°C and 0.974 atm?

topjm [15]

Answer:

V = 34.55 L

Explanation:

Given that,

No of moles, n = 1.4

Temperature, T = 20°C = 20 + 273 = 293 K

Pressure, P = 0.974 atm

We need to find the volume of the gas. It can be calculated using Ideal gas equation which is :

PV=nRT

R is gas constant, $R=0.08206\ L-atm/mol-K$

Finding for V,

$V=\dfrac{nRT}{P}\\\\V=\dfrac{1.4\times 0.08206\times 293}{0.974 }\\\\V=34.55\ L$

So, the volume of the gas is 34.55 L.

What is percentage composition?

blondinia [14]

Answer:

The percent composition of a component in a compound is the percent of the total mass of the compound that is due to that component. To calculate the percent composition of a component in a compound: Find the molar mass of the compound by adding up the masses of each atom.

How does the mass of an electron compare to the mass of a proton and a

tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

C. The mass of an electron is much less than the mass of a proton or

a neutron.

Explanation:

When we compare the mass of an electron to that of proton or neutron, the mass of an electron is much less than the mass of a proton or a neutron.

Electrons are negatively charged particles in an atom

Protons are positively charged particles

Neutrons do not carry any charges.

The relative mass of an electron compared to that of a proton is $\frac{1}{1840}$
This is a very small value
Electrons generally have mass of 9.11 x 10⁻³¹kg
Protons weigh 1.67 x 10⁻²⁷kg

Neutrons weigh 1.68 x 10⁻²⁷kg

We can see that electrons have very small mass and this is why when calculating the mass of an atom, we use the sum of the number of protons and neutrons.
