A gas made up of atoms escapes through a pinhole 0.225times as fast as gas. Write the chemical formula of the gas.
Answer:
Explanation:
To solve this problem, we must apply Graham's law of diffusion. This law states that "the rate of diffusion or effusion of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of its molecular mass at constant temperature and pressure".
Mathematically;

r₁ is the rate of diffusion of gas 1
r₂ is the rate of diffusion of gas 2
m₁ is the molar mass of gas 1
m₂ is the molar mass of gas 2
let gas 2 be the given H₂;
molar mass of H₂ = 2 x 1 = 2gmol⁻¹
rate of diffusion is 0.225;
i .e r1/r2 = 0.225
0.225 = √2 / √ m₁
0.225 = 1.414 / √ m₁
√ m₁ = 6.3
m₁ = 6.3² = 39.5g/mol
The gas is likely Argon since argon has similar molecular mass
You can simply subtract the atomic number from the mass number in order to find the number of neutrons.
it has less tightly bound electrons, is able to lose electron easily as compare to metal B at it has 4 unpaired electron in 3d sub-shell.
For the neutralization process: an acid acts as a donor and donates protons to the base. On the other hand, the base acts as an acceptor and accepts the transferred protons. In a nutshell, neutralization is mainly proton transfer process.
As for the redox process: the oxidized material usually transfers electrons to the reduced material. In a nutshell, redox is mainly electron transfer process.
Answer:
The answer to your question is P = 0.18 atm
Explanation:
Data
mass of O₂ = 0.29 g
Volume = 2.3 l
Pressure = ?
Temperature = 9°C
constant of ideal gases = 0.082 atm l/mol°K
Process
1.- Convert the mass of O₂ to moles
16 g of O₂ -------------------- 1 mol
0.29 g of O₂ ---------------- x
x = (0.29 x 1)/16
x = 0.29/16
x = 0.018 moles
2.- Convert the temperature to °K
Temperature = 9 + 273 = 282°K
3.- Use the ideal gas law ro find the answer
PV = nRT
-Solve for P
P = nRT/V
-Substitution
P = (0.018 x 0.082 x 282) / 2.3
-Simplification
P = 0.416/2.3
-Result
P = 0.18 atm
