Convert the volume of CO2 you measured in the glucose reaction to moles of CO2 using the Ideal Gas Law to solve for n. Assume P
is 1 atm. n = PV/RT where P is the atmospheric pressure in the lab, V is the volume in liters of CO2, n is the number of moles of CO2, R is the gas constant 0.082 L-atm/mole-Kelvin, and T is the temperature in Kelvin. Convert the gas volume to L by dividing the volume in mL by 1000.
The assumption in this problem is that the gas, CO2, is ideal and that the ideal gas law is applicable such that, n = PV/RT We simply substitute the given values to the equation above, n = (1 atm)(V) / (0.082 Latm/mol.K)(T) n = 12.20 V/T
Atoms are rearranged in materials The bonds between the atoms are broken and created anew in a different form, resulting in very different properties of coal and diamond.
