A rigid, closed vessel of volume V =648 liters maintained at constant temperature T=365 K is loaded with 112 mol of n-hexane, 15

5 mol of n-heptane, and 14 mol of nitrogen. Calculate the pressure in the vessel and the composition of all phases present at equilibrium. Make the following three assumptions: a) n-hexane and n-heptane form an ideal liquid solution, b) the vapor phase is ideal, c) nitrogen has negligible solubility in the liquid phase at the conditions of interest. The vapor pressures of n-hexane and n-heptane at T=365 K are P1=0.199 MPa and P2=0.083 MPa, respectively. Their (liquid) molar volumes are V¯ 1=0.146 l/mol and V¯ 1=0.162 l/mol, respectively.

Answer:

P = 2.92 atm

Explanation:

With the three assumptions in mind, the system consists of:

  • A liquid phase containing n-hexane and n-heptane, and
  • A gaseous phase containing n-hexane vapor, n-heptane vapor, and nitrogen gas.

First we use PV=nRT to calculate the moles of n-hexane and n-heptane in the gaseous phase:

  • n-hexane:

P = 0.199 MPa ⇒ 0.199 * 1.869 = 1.964 atm

  • 1.964 atm * 648 L = n * 0.082 atm·L·mol⁻¹·K⁻¹ * 365 K
  • n = 42.52 moles
  • n-heptane:

P = 0.083 MPa ⇒ 0.083 * 1.869 = 0.155 atm

  • 0.155 atm * 648 L = n * 0.082 atm·L·mol⁻¹·K⁻¹ * 365 K
  • n = 3.358 moles

So <u>the gaseous phase consists of 42.52 moles of n-hexane, 3.358 moles of n-heptane, and 14 mol of nitrogen</u>.

For the liquid phase, we <u>calculate the remaining moles of n-hexane and n-heptane</u>. Then we<u> convert to liters</u>, using their molar volumes:

  • n-hexane:
  • n = 112 mol - 42.52 mol = 69.48 mol
  • 69.48 mol * 0.146 L/mol = 10.14 L
  • n-heptane:
  • n = 155 mol - 3.358 mol = 151.642 mol
  • 151.642 mol * 0.162 L/mol = 24.57 L

So the liquid phase occupies (10.14+24.57) = 34.71 L, and <u>contains 69.48 mol of n-hexane and 151.64 mol of n-heptane</u>.

Finally, to<u> calculate the pressure in the vessel</u>, we use PV=nRT:

P = ?

V = 648 - 34.71 = 613.29 L

n = 42.52 mol hexane + 3.35 mol heptane + 14 mol nitrogen = 59.87 mol

T = 365 K

  • P * 613.29 L = 59.87 mol *  0.082 atm·L·mol⁻¹·K⁻¹ * 365 K
  • P = 2.92 atm

. Sulfur dioxide can be produced in the laboratory by the reaction of hydrochloric acid and a sulfite salt such as sodium sulfit
shutvik [7]

Answer:

Mass of SO₂ can be made from 25.0 g of Na₂SO₃ and 22 g of HCl = 12.672 g

Explanation:

SO₂( sulfur dioxide) can be produced in the lab. by the reaction of hydrochloric acid & sulphite salt such as sodium.

        the balanced chemical equation is as follows

                       Na₂SO₃ + 2 HCl → 2 NaCl + SO₂ + H₂O

Moles of Na₂SO₃ = \frac{Mass}{Molecular mass} =\frac{25}{126} = 0.198

Moles of HCl = \frac{mass}{molecular mass}=\frac{22}{36.5}= 0.6

using mole ratio method to find limiting reagent

      For sodium sulfite \frac{mole}{stoichiometry}  = \frac{0.198}{1}= 0.198

 for HCl \frac{mole}{stoichiometry}  = \frac{0.6}{2}= 0.3

since <u>sodium sulfite</u> is <u>limiting reactant</u> for above chemical reaction

1 mole of Na₂SO₃ produce 1 mole of SO₂

0.198 mole of Na₂SO₃ produce 0.198 mole of SO₂

∴ Mass of SO₂ produce = mole x molar mass of SO₂

                                       = 0.198 x 64

                                       = 12.672 g

Sugar has a lower melting point than salt because sugar is made of _________.
il63 [147K]
The correct answer is Crystals.

Unlike sugar, salt is not made out of crystals, but both salt and sugar are made out of atoms, that is molecules, and can have ions.
