A 255 mL round--bonom flask is weighed and found to have a mass of 114.85 g. A few millimeters of an easily vaporized liquid are

added to the flask and the flask is immersed in a boiling water bath. All of the liquid vaporizes at the boiling tempentture of water, filling the flask with vapor. When all of the liquid has vaporized, the flask is removed from the bath, cooled, dried, and reweighed. The new mass of the flask and the condensed vapor is 115.23 g. Which of the following compounds could the liquid be?
a. C₄H₁₀b. C₃H₇OHc. C₂H₆d. C₂H₅OHe. C₄H₉OH

Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

According to the given situation, mass of compound will be calculated as follows.

Mass of compound = mass of flask and condensed vapor - mass of flask

                                 = 115.23 - 114.85

                                = 0.38 g

Volume (V) = 255 mL = 255 \times 10^{-6} m^{3}        (as 1 ml = 10^{-6} m^{3})

Pressure (P) = 101325 Pa

Temperature = 100^{o}C = (100 + 273) K = 373 K

Now, according to the ideal gas equation, PV = nRT

and, moles of compound n = \frac{PV}{RT}

                     = \frac{101325 \times 255 \times 10^{-6}}{8.314 \times 373}

                     = 0.008332 mol

As, molar mass of compound = \frac{mass}{\text{no. of moles}}

                                                  = \frac{0.38}{0.008332}

                                                  = 46 g/mol

Therefore, the compound is C_{2}H_{5}OH (molar mass = 12 x 2 + 5 x 1 + 16 + 1 = 46 g/mol).

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options the liquid could be C_{2}H_{5}OH.

Using stoichiometry, you predict that you should be able to use 314.0 g of Al to produce 1551 g of AlCi3. In your lab
Alex787 [66]

Answer:

90.26%

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Theoretical yield of AlCl₃ = 1551 g

Actual yield of AlCl₃ = 1400 g

Percentage yield =?

The percentage yield of the reaction can be obtained as follow:

Percentage yield = Actual yield / Theoretical yield × 100

Percentage yield = 1400 / 1551 × 100

Percentage yield = 140000 / 1551

Percentage yield = 90.26%

Thus, the percentage yield of the reaction is 90.26%

Assume that you have a cylinder with a movable piston. What would happen to the gas pressure inside the cylinder if you do the f
pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

A. The pressure will increase 4 times. P₂ = 4 P₁

B. The pressure will decrease to half its value. P₂ = 0.5 P₁

C. The pressure will decrease to half its value. P₂ = 0.5 P₁

Explanation:

Initially, we have n₁ moles of a gas that occupy a volume V₁ at temperature T₁ and pressure P₁.

<em>What would happen to the gas pressure inside the cylinder if you do the following?</em>

<em />

<em>Part A: Decrease the volume to one-fourth the original volume while holding the temperature constant. Express your answer in terms of the variable P initial.</em>

V₂ = 0.25 V₁. According to Boyle's law,

P₁ . V₁ = P₂ . V₂

P₁ . V₁ = P₂ . 0.25 V₁

P₁ = P₂ . 0.25

P₂ = 4 P₁

<em>Part B: Reduce the Kelvin temperature to half its original value while holding the volume constant. Express your answer in terms of the variable P initial.</em>

T₂ = 0.5 T₁. According to Gay-Lussac's law,

\frac{P_{1}}{T_{1}} =\frac{P_{2}}{T_{2}}\\\frac{P_{1}}{T_{1}} =\frac{P_{2}}{0.5T_{1}}\\\\P_{2}=0.5P_{1}

<em>Part C: Reduce the amount of gas to half while keeping the volume and temperature constant. Express your answer in terms of the variable P initial.</em>

n₂ = 0.5 n₁.

P₁ in terms of the ideal gas equation is:

P_{1}=\frac{n_{1}.R.T_{1}}{V_{1}}

P₂ in terms of the ideal gas equation is:

P_{2}=\frac{n_{2}.R.T_{1}}{V_{1}}=\frac{0.5n_{1}.R.T_{1}}{V_{1}}=0.5P_{1}
