Answer:
3.2 L
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of oxygen = 3.760 g
Pressure of gas = 88.4 Kpa (88.4×1000 = 88400 Nm⁻²)
Temperature = 19°C (19+273.15 = 292.15 K)
R = 8.314 Nm K⁻¹ mol⁻¹
Volume occupied = ?
Solution:
Number of moles of oxygen:
Number of moles = mass/ molar mass
Number of moles = 3.760 g/ 32 g/mol
Number of moles = 0.12 mol
The given problem will be solve by using general gas equation,
PV = nRT
P= Pressure
V = volume
n = number of moles
R = general gas constant
T = temperature in kelvin
V = nRT/P
V = 0.12 mol × 8.314 Nm K⁻¹ mol⁻¹ × 292.15 K /88400 Nm⁻²
V = 291.472 Nm /88400 Nm⁻²
V = 0.0032 m³
m³ to L:
V = 0.0032×1000 = 3.2 L
Methane is lighter than air, having a specific gravity of 0.554. It is only slightly soluble in water. It burns readily in air, forming carbon dioxide
and water vapour; the flame is pale, slightly luminous, and very hot.
The boiling point of methane is −162 °C (−259.6 °F) and the melting
point is −182.5 °C (−296.5 °F). Methane in general is very stable, but
mixtures of methane and air, with the methane content between 5 and 14
percent by volume, are explosive. Explosions of such mixtures have been
frequent in coal mines and collieries and have been the cause of many
mine disasters.
The number of protons in the nucleus of the atom is equal to the atomic number (Z). The number of electrons in a neutral atom is equal to the number of protons.
Hydrogen
...
Acids always dissociate in water, which causes the production of hydrogen ions. Not all necessarily <em>start</em> with hydrogen, but most do and all contain.
