A flask containing helium gas is connected to an open-ended mercury manometer. The open end is exposed to the atmosphere, where

the prevailing pressure is 752 torr. The mercury level in the open arm is 26 mm above that in the arm connected to the flask of helium.What is the helium pressure, in torr?

Answer:

726 torr

Explanation:

Generally, atmospheric pressure can be measured using a manometer which is in form of a U-shaped tube. In addition, 1 mm Hg is equivalent to 1 torr. Therefore, 752 torr is equivalent to 752 mm Hg. Therefore, the total pressure will be equivalent to the atmospheric pressure (mm Hg) + the mercury height.

In this case, the mercury height = -26 mm

Thus:

The helium pressure = 752 - 26 = 726 mm Hg

This is also equivalent to 726 torr

What is the mass of 1.7 × 1023 atoms of zinc (Zn)?
Rudiy27

Number of moles is defined as the ratio of given mass in g to the molar mass.

The mathematical formula is:

Number of moles = \frac{given mass in g}{molar mass}   (1)

Number of zinc atoms is equal to 1.7\times10^{23}, by Avogadro number, number of moles can be calculated.

As, 1 mol=6.022\times10^{23} atoms, hence,

1.7\times10^{23}\times\frac{1 mol}{6.022\times10^{23} }

= 0.2822 mol

Now, from formula (1), calculate mass in g (molar mass of zinc = 65.4 g/mol)

0.2822 mol = \frac{mass in g}{65.4 g/mol}

mass in g  = {0.2822 mol \times 65.4 g/mol

= 18.45588 g

Thus, by rounding off the above number, it will come near about 19 g approximately.

Hence, option (C) is the correct answer.

Calculate the concentration of A bottle of wine contains 12.9% ethanol by volume. The density of ethanol (CH3OH) is 0.789 g/cm e
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

The mass percentage of the solution is 10.46%.

The molality of the solution is 2.5403 mol/kg.

Explanation:

A bottle of wine contains 12.9% ethanol by volume.

This means that in 100 mL of solution 12.9  L of alcohol is present.

Volume of alcohol = v = 12.9 L

Mass of the ethanol = m

Density of the ethanol ,d= 0.789 g/cm^3=0.789 g/mL

1 cm^3=1 mL

m=d\times v=0.798 g/ml\times 12.9 mL = 10.1781 g

Mass of water = M

Volume of water ,V= 100 mL - 12.9 mL = 87.1 mL

Density of water = D=1.00 g/mL

M=D\times V=1.00 g/ml\times 87.1 mL =87.1 g

Mass percent

(w/w)\%=\frac{m}{m+M}\times 100

\frac{10.1781 g}{10.1781 g+87.1 g}\times 100=10.46\%

Molality :

m=\frac{m}{\text{molar mass of ethanol}\times M(kg)}

M = 87.1 g = 0.0871 kg (1 kg =1000 g)

=\frac{10.1781 g}{46 g/mol\times 0.0871 kg}

m=2.5403 mol/kg
