A 3.31-g sample of lead nitrate, Pb(NO3)2, molar mass = 331 g/mol, is heated in an evacuated cylinder with a volume of 2.53 L. T

he salt decomposes when heated, according to the equation:
2Pb(NO3)2(s)-->2PbO(s) + 4NO2(g) + O2(g)
Assuming complete decomposition, what is the pressure in the cylinder after decomposition and cooling to a temperature of 300. K? Assume the PbO(s) takes up negligible volume.

Answer:

0.486atm is the pressure of the cylinder

Explanation:

1 mole of Pb(NO₃)₂ descomposes in 4 moles of NO2 and 1 mole of O2. That is 1 mole descomposes in 5 moles of gas.

To find the pressure of the cylinder, we need to find moles of gas produced, and using general gas law we can determine the pressure of the gas:

<em>Moles Pb(NO₃)₂ and moles of gas:</em>

3.31g * (1mol / 331g) = 0.01 moles of Pb(NO₃)₂.

That means moles of gas produced is 0.05 moles.

<em>Pressure of the gas:</em>

Using PV = nRT

P = nRT/V

<em>Where P is pressure (Incognite)</em>

<em>V is volume (2.53L)</em>

<em>R is gas constant (0.082atmL/molK)</em>

<em>T is absolute temperature (300K)</em>

And n are moles of gas (0.05 moles)

P = 0.05mol*0.082atmL/molK*300K / 2.53L

P = 0.486atm is the pressure of the cylinder

Alex Ar [27]
<span>The amount of dissolved salt in the liquid sample is measured and reported as salinity. The salinity is usually measured in parts per thousand (ppt). The salinity of ocean averages 35 ppt while that of the river averages 0.5 ppt or less. In other terms, the word salinity is the saltiness. </span>

The rate law of a reaction is rate = k[D][X]. The units of the rate constant are ________.
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

Hello!

Since the rate must have the following units: mol/(L*s), the suitable units for k, considering that the term [D] [X] leads to mol^2/(L^2) (it means a second order kinetic law), are L/(mol*s), nevertheless, that answer isn't in the given options.

A balloon contains 5L of oxygen at a pressure of 90 kPa. How much oxygen will the ballon contain if the pressure is lowered to 6
VLD [36.1K]
We have that all (ideal) gases obey the fundamental gas equation: PV=nRT where P is the Pressure, V is the Volume, n is the number of moles, R is a universal constant and T is the temperature in Kelvin. In this process, we have that both the number of moles and the temperature stays the same. So if we denote by i the initial conditions and by f the final conditions of the gas, we have:P_{i} * V_{i}=nRT= P{f}*V{f} . Hence, if we solve for the final Volume we get: V_{f} = \frac {V_{i}*P_{i} }{P_{f}} . Now we know all the other variables; substituting we get that the final volume is 6.7 L (6.716 L ).
