What is the volume, in liters, of 1.40 mol of oxygen gas at 20.0°C and 0.974 atm?
topjm [15]

Answer:

V = 34.55 L

Explanation:

Given that,

No of moles, n = 1.4

Temperature, T = 20°C = 20 + 273 = 293 K

Pressure, P = 0.974 atm

We need to find the volume of the gas. It can be calculated using Ideal gas equation which is :

PV=nRT

R is gas constant, R=0.08206\ L-atm/mol-K

Finding for V,

V=\dfrac{nRT}{P}\\\\V=\dfrac{1.4\times 0.08206\times 293}{0.974 }\\\\V=34.55\ L

So, the volume of the gas is 34.55 L.

How does temp affect the phase of a substance
notka56 [123]

Answer:

state of matter

Explanation:

so take water for example, water has a melting point and a boiling point right? So if it's below 0 degrees, then it's in its solid phase. If the temperature is above 0 degrees, then the water starts to melt into its liquid phase. Then when the temperature is above 100 degrees, water starts to boil and become its gas phase. This is the same for all substances. The only difference is different substances have different melting and boiling points so the numbers will be different depending on your substance. hope this helped!
