Two identical containers, one red and one yellow, are inflated with different gases at the same volume and pressure. Both contai

ners have an identically sized hole that allows the gas to leak out. It takes four times as long for the yellow container to leak out compared to the red container. If the red container is twice as hot as the yellow container, what is the ratio of the molar masses of the gases (Myellow / Mred)

Answer:

8

Explanation:

Here we're dealing with the root mean square velocity of gases. We'll provide the formula in order to calculate the root mean square velocity of a gas:

v_{rms}=\sqrt{\frac{3RT}{M}}

Here:

R = 8.314 \frac{J}{K mol} is the ideal gas law constant;

T is the absolute temperature in K;

M is the molar mass of a compound in kg/mol.

We know that the gas from the red container is 4 times faster, as it takes 4 times as long for the yellow container to leak out, this means:

\frac{v_{rms, red}}{v_{rms, yellow}} = 4

We also know that the temperature of the red container is twice as large:

\frac{T_{red}}{T_{yellow}} = 2

Write the ratio of the velocities and substitute the variables:

\frac{v_{rms, red}}{v_{rms, yellow}}=\frac{\sqrt{\frac{3RT_{red}}{M_{red}}}}{\sqrt{\frac{3RT_{yellow}}{M_{yellow}}}}=4

Then:

\frac{\sqrt{\frac{3RT_{red}}{M_{red}}}}{\sqrt{\frac{3RT_{yellow}}{M_{yellow}}}}=\sqrt{\frac{3RT_{red}}{M_{red}}\cdot \frac{M_{yellow}}{3RT_{yellow}}}=\sqrt{\frac{T_{red}}{T_{yellow}}\cdot \frac{M_{yellow}}{M_{red}}}=4

From here:

16 = \frac{T_{red}}{T_{yellow}}\cdot \frac{M_{yellow}}{M_{red}}

Then:

\frac{M_{yellow}}{M_{red}} = \frac{16}{\frac{T_{red}}{T_{yellow}}} = \frac{16}{2} = 8

In the equation CH4 + 2O2 --> 2H2O + CO2 What is the mass of CO2 produced when 35g of O2 reacts?
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

24.06 g of CO₂

Explanation:

The balanced equation for the reaction is given below:

CH₄ + 2O₂ —> 2H₂O + CO₂

Next, we shall determine the mass of O₂ that reacted and the mass of CO₂ produced from the balanced equation. This can be obtained as follow:

Molar mass of O₂ = 2 × 16 = 32 g/mol

Mass of O₂ from the balanced equation = 2 × 32 = 64 g

Molar mass of CO₂ = 12 + (2×16)

= 12 + 32

= 44 g/mol

Mass of CO₂ from the balanced equation = 1 × 44 = 44 g

SUMMARY:

From the balanced equation above,

64 g of O₂ reacted to produce 44 g of CO₂.

Finally, we shall determine the mass of CO₂ produced by the reaction of 35 g of O₂. This can be obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

64 g of O₂ reacted to produce 44 g of CO₂.

Therefore, 35 g of O₂ will react to produce = (35 × 44)/64 = 24.06 g of CO₂.

Thus, 24.06 g of CO₂ were produced from the reaction.

How many moles of solute are in 53.1 mL of 12.5M HCI?
Deffense [45]
Molarity = moles of solute/volume of solution in liters.

From this relation, we can figure out the number of moles of solute by multiplying the molarity of the solution by the volume in liters.

We have 53.1 mL, or 0.0531 L, of a 12.5 M, or 12.5 mol/L, solution. Multiplying 12.5 mol/L by 0.0531 L, we obtain 0.664 moles. So, in this volume of solution, there are 0.664 moles of solute (HCl).

Choose a generic equation showing how a weak base ionizes water.
FinnZ [79.3K]
Hi!

The generic equation showing how a weak base ionizes water is the following:

B(aq) + H₂O(l) ⇄ BH⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq)

A base is described as weak when its dissociation is difficult and isn't complete. Weak Bases are chemical compounds that accept protons from water, to form the conjugate acid and the OH⁻ ion. The pH of the solution of a weak base is higher than 7. Some weak bases include ammonia (NH₃), Aluminum Hydroxide (Al(OH)₃) and Sodium Acetate (CH₃COONa).

Have a nice day!

If you have a 4.0 g of radioactive substance left after 4 half-lives have passed then how much did you have originally?
kirza4 [7]

4.0 +4.0= 8.0

8.0+8.0=16.0

16.0+16.0=32.0

32.0+32.0=64.0
