Answer: 10.2 grams

Explanation:

The balanced chemical reaction is :

CaH_2(s)+2H_2O(l)\rightarrow Ca(OH)_2(aq)+2H_2(g)

According to the ideal gas equation:

PV=nRT

P = Pressure of the gas = 740 torr =  0.97 atm    (760torr=1atm)

V= Volume of the gas = 12.0 L

T= Temperature of the gas = 19°C = 292 K    0^0C=273K

R= Gas constant = 0.0821 atmL/K mol

n= moles of gas

n=\frac{PV}{RT}=\frac{0.97\times 12.0}{0.0821\times 292}

n=0.48

According to stoichiometry:

2 moles of hydrogen are generated by = 1 mole of CaH_2

Thus 0.48 moles of hydrogen are generated by =\frac{1}{2}\times 0.48=0.24 moles of CaH_2

Mass of  CaH_2=moles\times {\text {Molar mass}}=0.24mol\times 42g/mol=10.2g

Thus 10.2 grams of CaH_2 are needed to generate 12.0 L of hydrogen gas if the pressure of hydrogen is 740. torr at 19°C

mr_godi [17]
No, physics does not suggest an exact pace in which a chemical compound will travel. It will matter in external forces as well as the median it is travelling through.

When copper metal is added to nitric acid, the following reaction takes place
zlopas [31]

Answer:

The volume of NO₂ gas collected over water at 25.0 °C is 1.68 Liters.

Explanation:

Cu (s) + 4 HNO_3 (aq) \rightarrow Cu(NO_3)_2 (aq) + 2 H_2O (l) + 2 NO_2 (g)

Moles of copper = \frac{2.01 g}{63.55 g/mol}=0.03163 mol

According to reaction, 1 mol of copper gives 2 moles of nitrogen dioxide gas.

Then 0.03613 moles of copper will give:

\frac{2}{1}\times 0.03163 mol=0.06326 mol of nitrogen dioxide gas

Moles of nitrogen dioxide gas = n = 0.06326 mol

Pressure of the gas = P

P = Total pressure - vapor pressure of water

P = 726 mmHg - 23.8 mmHg = 702.2 mmHg

P = 0.924 atm (1 atm = 760 mmHg)

Temperature of the gas = T = 25.0°C =298.15 K

Volume of the gas = V

PV=nRT

V=\frac{0.06326 mol\times 0.0821 atm L/mol K\times 298.15 K}{0.924 atm}

V = 1.68 L

The volume of NO₂ gas collected over water at 25.0 °C is 1.68 Liters.
