Answer: The boiling point of water is an absolute constant

Explanation:

The boiling point of a compound is NOT an absolute constant. This is because at certain conditions such as a change in altitude, the boiling point of a compound changes.

As temperature increases, evaporation increases and vapour pressure increases. Compounds boils when vapour pressure equal to the atmospheric pressure.

At higher altitudes, atmospheric pressure is decreses.

When atmospheric pressure is decresed, the vapour pressure of the compound is lowered to reach boiling point. Therefore, the temperature needed for vapour pressure to equal atmospheric pressure is lower. The boiling point is lower at higher altitude.

Hence boiling point depends on atmospheric pressure

Iron is extracted from iron oxide in the Blast Furnace: Fe 2 O 3 + 3 CO → 2 Fe + 3 CO 2

arsen [322]

a. mass of iron = 69.92 g

b. percent yield = 93%

<h3>Further eplanation </h3>

Percent yield is the compare of the amount of product obtained from a reaction with the amount you calculated

General formula:

Percent yield = (Actual yield / theoretical yield )x 100%

An actual yield is the amount of product actually produced by the reaction. A theoretical yield is the amount of product that you calculate from the reaction equation according to the product and reactant coefficients

Reaction

Fe₂O₃+3CO⇒2Fe+3CO₂

MW Fe₂O₃ : 159.69 g/mol

mol Fe₂O₃

$\tt \dfrac{100}{159,69}=0.626$

mol Fe₂O₃ : mol Fe = 1 : 2

mol Fe :

$\tt \dfrac{2}{1}\times 0.626=1.252$

mass of Fe(Ar=55.845 g/mol) :

$\tt 1.252\times 55.845=69.92~g$

actual yield = 65 g

theoretical yield = 69.92 g

percent yield :

$\tt =\dfrac{65}{69.92}=0.93=93\%$

What mass, in grams, of oxygen gas (o2) is contained in a 8.5-liter tank at 32.0 degrees celsius and 3.23 atmospheres?

e-lub [12.9K]

For this problem we assume that oxygen is an ideal gas. So, we use the equation PV=nRT where P is pressure, V is the volume, n is the number of moles, R is a universal constant and T is the temperature. We first solve for the number of moles n. Then, using the molar mass of oxygen we convert it to grams.

PV=nRT
n = PV / RT
n = 3.23 (8.5) / 0.08206 (32+273.15)
n = 1.0964 mol

mass = 1.0964 mol (32g / 1 mol) = 35.09 g O2
