1.42 mol sample of neon gas at a temperature of 13.0 °C is found to occupy a volume of 25.5 liters. The pressure of this gas sam
Dima020 [189]

Answer: 996 mmHg

Explanation:

According to avogadro's law, 1 mole of every substance occupies 22.4 L at NTP, weighs equal to the molecular mass and contains avogadro's number 6.023\times 10^{23} of particles.

According to the ideal gas equation:

PV=nRT

P = Pressure of the gas = ?

V= Volume of the gas = 25.5 L

T= Temperature of the gas = 13°C = (273+13) K  = 286K

R= Gas constant = 0.0821 atmL/K mol

n=  moles of gas= 1.42

P=\frac{nRT}{V}=\frac{1.42\times 0.0821\times 286}{25.5}=1.31atm=996mmHg      (760mmHg=1atm)

Thus pressure of this gas sample is 996 mm Hg.

6. 100 ml of gaseous hydrocarbon consumes 300
mario62 [17]

Answer:

  • <u><em>a. C₂H₄</em></u>

Explanation:

At constant pressure and temperature, the mole ratio of the gases is equal to their volume ratio (a consequence of Avogadro's law).

Hence, the <em>complete combustion reaction</em> that has a ratio of 100 ml of gaseous hydrocarbon to 300 ml of oxygen, is that whose mole ratio is 1 mol hydrocarbon : 3 mol of oxygen.

Then, you must write the balanced chemical equations for the complete combustion of the four hydrocarbons in the list of choices, and conclude which has such mole ratio (1 mol hydrocarbon : 3 mol oxygen).

A complete combustion reaction of a hydrocarbon is the reaction with oxygen that produces CO₂ and H₂O, along with the release of heat and light.

<u>a. C₂H₄:</u>

  • C₂H₄ (g) + 3O₂ (g) → 2CO₂(g)  + 2H₂O (g)

Precisely, for this reaction the mole ratio is 1 mol C₂H₄: 2 mol O₂, hence, this is the right choice.

The following analysis just shows that the other options are not right.

<u>b. C₂H₂:</u>

  • 2C₂H₂ (g) + 5O₂ (g) → 4CO₂(g)  + 2H₂O (g)

The mole ratio for this reaction is 2 mol C₂H₂ :5 mol O₂.

<u>с. С₃Н₈</u>

  • C₃H₈ (g) + 5O₂ (g) → 3CO₂(g)  + 4H₂O (g)

The mole ratio is 1 mol C₃H₈ : 5 mol O₂

<u>d. C₂H₆</u>

  • 2C₂H₆ (g) +7 O₂ (g) → 4CO₂(g)  + 6H₂O (g)

The mole ratio is 2 mol C₂H₆ : 7 mol O₂

Veronika [31]

Answer:

Nonbonding pairs of electrons.

Explanation:

Both oxygen atoms in the diatomic molecule have two nonbonding pairs. This results in the oxygen molecule having a planar geometric shape. This is because nonbonding pairs repel each other are significant in determining the shape of a molecule.
