<span>Cellular respiration is the chemical reaction in which glucose and oxygen are turned into water, carbon dioxide, and energy. Now you know the answer. :P</span>
Answer:
1.7 bar
Explanation:
We can use the <em>Ideal Gas Law</em> to calculate the individual gas pressure.
pV = nRT Divide both sides by V
p = (nRT)/V
Data: n = 1.7 × 10⁶ mol
R = 0.083 14 bar·L·K⁻¹mol⁻¹
T = 22 °C
V = 2.5 × 10⁷ L
Calculations:
(a) <em>Change the temperature to kelvins
</em>
T = (22 + 273.15) K
= 295.15 K
(b) Calculate the pressure
p = (1.7 × 10⁶ × 0.083 14 × 295.15)/(2.5× 10⁷)
= 1.7 bar
Mass of Sulphur dioxide : 256 g
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Given
Reaction
S + O2 --> SO2 *
Required
Mass of Sulphur dioxide
Solution
mol of Sulphur (Ar=32 g/mol) :
mol = mass : Ar
mol = 128 : 32
mol = 4
From the equation, mol ratio S : SO2 = 1 : 1, so mol SO2 = 4
Mass of SO2 :
mass = mol x MW SO2
mass = 4 x 64
mass = 256 g
