Sometimes in lab we collect the gas formed by a chemical reaction over water (see sketch at right). This makes it easy to isolat

e and measure the amount of gas produced.
Suppose the CO gas evolved by a certain chemical reaction taking place at 55 degree C is collected over water, using an apparatus something like that in the sketch, and the final volume of gas in the collection tube is measured to be 117 ml.

Calculate the mass of CO that is in the collection tube. Round your answer to 2 significant digits. You can make any normal and reasonable assumption about the reaction conditions and the nature of the gases.

Answer:

The correct answer is 0.12 grams.

Explanation:

The mass of carbon monoxide or CO collected in the tube can be determined by using the ideal gas equation, that is, PV = nRT.

Based on the given question, P or the pressure of the gas is given as 1 atm, volume of the gas collected in the tube is 117 ml or 0.117 L.  

The number of moles or n can be determined by using the equation, mass/molar mass.  

R is the universal gas constant, whose value is 0.0821 L atmK^-1mol^-1, and temperature is 55 degree C or 328 K (55+273).  

On putting the values we get:

n = PV/RT

= (1 atm*0.117 L) / (0.0821 L atmK^-1mol^-1 * 328 K)

= 0.0043447 mol

Therefore, mass of CO will be moles * molar mass of CO

= 0.0043447 mol * 28 g/mol

= 0.12 g

Two elements that have the same ground-state valence shell configuration of ns 2 np 2 are
kvv77 [185]

Answer:

carbon and silicon

Explanation:

Various groups of elements in the periodic table have different outermost shell electron configurations. Actually, elements are classified into groups on the basis of the number of electrons on the outermost shell of those elements. All elements with the same number of electrons on their outermost shell belong to the same group in the periodic table.

For elements in group 14, they all have four electrons on their outermost shell. Their general outer electron configuration is ns2 np2 as shown in the question. Two prominent members of this group are carbon and silicon. This ns2 np2 is the ground state outer electron configuration of all group 14 elements in the periodic table.
