How many molecules are in 28 grams of nitrogen gas in balloons?

Chemistry

melomori [17]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

6.022\cdot 10^{23} molecules of nitrogen gas

Explanation:

In order to convert the mass of a given compound into the number of molecules, we need to:

  • identify the number of moles of a given compound dividing its mass by the molar mass, n = \frac{m}{M},
  • multiply the number of moles by the Avogadro's constant which tells us that 1 mole contains N_A = 6.022\cdot 10^{23} molecules.

In this problem:

m_{N_2} = 28~g

M_{N_2} = 28.01~g/mol

The number of particles is then found by:

N_{N_2} = n_{N_2}\cdot N_A = \frac{m_{N_2}}{M_{N_2}} N_A = \frac{28 g}{28.01 g/mol}\cdot 6.022\cdot 10^{23} mol^{-1} = 6.022\cdot 10^{23}

Identify the neutral element represented by this excited-state electron configuration, then write the ground-state electron conf
sineoko [7]

Answer:

1s² 2s² 2p³

Nitrogen

Explanation:

Excited state configuration: 1s² 2s² 2p² 3s¹

Unknown:

Ground state configuration = ?

Element symbol = ?

Solution:

Let us start by understanding what a ground state configuration entails:

A ground state configuration shows the lowest allowed energy levels of an atom. The excited state denotes when electrons have moved to higher energy levels away from their ground state.

The superscript in the configuration depicts the number of electrons in each of the sublevels.

We can use this number to identify the atom we are dealing with:

 Total number of electrons = 2 + 2 + 2 + 1 = 7 electrons

The element with 7 electrons on the periodic table is Nitrogen.

Now, the ground state configuration:

In writing the electronic configuration of an atom, certain rules must be complied with.

  • Aufbau's principle states that the sublevels with lower energies are filled up before those with higher energies. The order of filling is:

        1s 2s 2p 3s 3p 4s etc

To fill the s-orbital = 2 electrons

                p-orbital = 6 electrons

The outermost shell electrons are usually the ones excited.

  Now, the 3s¹ shell is an excited one taking 1 electron from the second energy level;

 The ground state configuration is 1s² 2s² 2p³

Acetylene gas (C2H2) burns completely in the presence of oxygen gas (O2) to yield carbon dioxide
Luda [366]

A. The balanced equation for the reaction is

2C₂H₂ + 5O₂ —> 4CO₂ + 2H₂O

B. The volume of the oxygen gas required to burn 0.700 L of acetylene gas is 1.75 L

C. The volume of carbon dioxide gas produced is 1.4 L

D. The volume of water vapor produced is 0.7 L

<h3>A. Balanced equation </h3>

The balanced equation for the reaction between acetylene gas (C₂H₂) and oxygen gas (O₂) is given below

2C₂H₂ + 5O₂ —> 4CO₂ + 2H₂O

<h3>B. How to determine the volume of oxygen </h3>

2C₂H₂ + 5O₂ —> 4CO₂ + 2H₂O

Since the reaction occurred at standard temperature and pressure, we can thus say that:

From the balanced equation above,

2 L of C₂H₂ reacted with 5 L O₂.

Therefore,

0.7 L of C₂H₂ will react with = (0.7 × 5) / 2 = 1.75 L of O₂

Thus, 1.75 L of O₂ is needed for the reaction

<h3>C. How to determine the volume of carbon dioxide </h3>

2C₂H₂ + 5O₂ —> 4CO₂ + 2H₂O

From the balanced equation above,

2 L of C₂H₂ reacted to produce 4 L of CO₂

Therefore,

0.7 L of C₂H₂ will react to produce = (0.7 × 4) / 2 = 1.4 L of CO₂

Thus, 1.4 L of CO₂ were produced

<h3>D. How to determine the volume of water. </h3>

2C₂H₂ + 5O₂ —> 4CO₂ + 2H₂O

From the balanced equation above,

2 L of C₂H₂ reacted to produce 2 L of H₂O

Therefore,

0.7 L of C₂H₂ will also react to produce 0.7 L of H₂O

Thus, 0.7 L of H₂O was produced
