Freon−12 (CF2Cl2), widely used as a refrigerant and aerosol propellant, is a dangerous air pollutant. In the troposphere, it tra

ps heat 25 times as effectively as CO2, and in the stratosphere, it participates in the breakdown of ozone. Freon−12 is prepared industrially by reaction of gaseous carbon tetrachloride with hydrogen fluoride. Hydrogen chloride gas also forms. How many grams of carbon tetrachloride are required for the production of 28.5 dm3 of Freon−12 at 21°C and 1.62 atm?

<u>Answer:</u> The mass of carbon tetrachloride required is 293.8 grams.

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

PV=nRT

where,

P = pressure of Freon-12 = 1.62 atm

V = Volume of Freon-12 = 28.5dm^3=28.5L     (Conversion factor:  1dm^3=1L )

T = Temperature of Freon-12 = 21^oC=[21+273]K=294K

R = Gas constant = 0.0821\text{ L. atm }mol^{-1}K^{-1}

n = number of moles Freon-12 = ?

Putting values in above equation, we get:

1.62atm\times 28.5L=n\times 0.0821\text{ L atm }mol^{-1}K^{-1}\times 294K\\n=\frac{1.62\times 28.5}{0.0821\times 294}=1.91mol

The chemical equation for the formation of Freon-12 follows:

CCl_4+2HF\rightarrow CF_2Cl_2+2HCl

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of Freon-12 is formed by 1 mole of carbon tetrachloride

So, 1.91 moles of Freon-12 will be formed by = \frac{1}{1}\times 1.91=1.91mol of carbon tetrachloride

To calculate the mass of carbon tetrachloride, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}

Molar mass of carbon tetrachloride = 153.82 g/mol

Moles of carbon tetrachloride = 1.91 moles

Putting values in above equation, we get:

1.91mol=\frac{\text{Mass of carbon tetrachloride}}{153.82g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of carbon tetrachloride}=(1.91mol\times 153.82g/mol)=293.8g

Hence, the mass of carbon tetrachloride required is 293.8 grams.

Why do you think it is advantageous to use inert electrodes in the electrolysis process? ​
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

The advantage of this technique is that purified water as well as deposited metals can be re-used. It is necessary to use an inert electrode, such as platinum, because there is no metal present to conduct the electrons from the anode to the cathode.

PLEASE HELP ME!!

1, When temperature is increased the volume will also increase. this is because the particles will gain kinetic energy and bombard the walls of the container of the gas at a higher frequency, therefore, for the pressure to remain constant as per Charles' law, the volume will have to increase so that the rate of bombardment remains constant. This is explained by the Charles law which states that the volume of a gas is directly proportional to the absolute temperature provided pressure remains constant.

2. When temperature is Decreased the volume will also Decrease. this is because the particles will loose kinetic energy and bombard the walls of the container of the gas less frequently, therefore, for the pressure to remain constant as per Charles' law, the volume will have to reduce so that the rate of bombardment remains constant. This is explained by the Charles law which states that the volume of a gas is directly proportional to the absolute temperature provided pressure remains constant.

3. When temperature is increased the pressure will increase. This is because the gas particles gain kinetic energy and bombard the walls of the container more frequently. this is according to Pressure law which states that for a constant volume of a gas the pressure is directly proportional to absolute temperature

4. When temperature is decreased, pressure will decrease, This is because the gas particles lose kinetic energy and bombard the walls of the container less frequently. this is according to Pressure law which states that for a constant volume of a gas the pressure is directly proportional to absolute temperature

5. When particles are added, pressure will increase. This is because the bombardment per unit area also increases. Boyles law explains this, that at fixed temperature the volume of a gas is inversely proportional to the pressure.

6. When particles are removed, the pressure will decrease. This is because the bombardment per unit area also decreases. Boyle's law explains this, that at fixed temperature the volume of a gas is inversely proportional to the pressure.

What chemical process occurs in cells to release energy?
Lana71 [14]

Answer:

B. Respiration

Explanation:

cellular respiration is the process where cells use glucose (C6H12O6) and oxygen gas (O2) to make carbon dioxide (CO2) water (H2O) and ATP, which is energy

formula:

C6H12O6 + 6O2 -> 6CO2 + 6H20 + 38ATP
