An outdoor grill has a propane (C3H8) tank that holds 4.8 L of gas at a pressure of 5.5 atm. If all of the gas is transferred in

shtirl [24]

Answer: 0.176 atm

Explanation: Solution attached:

Use Boyle's Law to find the new pressure of the gas.

P1V1 = P2V2

Derive for P2

P2 = P1V1 / V2

= 5.5 atm ( 4.8 L ) / 150 L

= 0.176 atm

Select the properly written and balanced equation for the following chemical reaction: Sodium metal and an aqueous solution of m

Setler [38]

Answer: $2Na(s)+MgI_2 (aq)\rightarrow 2NaI(aq)+Mg(s)$

Explanation: The chemical reaction is written by writing down the chemical formulas of the reactants on the left hand side and the chemical formulas of products on the right hand side separated by a right arrow.

This is a single displacement reaction in which a more reactive element displaces the less reactive element from its salt solution. Thus sodium is more reactive than Mg and thus displaces it from $MgI_2$ .

$2Na(s)+MgI_2 (aq)\rightarrow 2NaI(aq)+Mg(s)$

The number of atoms of each element must be same on both sides of the reaction so as to follow the law of conservation of mass. Thus the equation is balanced.

Given 4.80g of ammonium carbonate, find:

V125BC [204]

Answer:

1) 0.05 mol.

2) 0.1 mol.

3) 0.05 mol.

4) 0.4 mol.

5) 2.4 x 10²³ molecules.

Explanation:

1) Number of moles of the compound:

no. of moles of ammonium carbonate = mass/molar mass = (4.80 g)/(96.09 g/mol) = 0.05 mol.

2) Number of moles of ammonium ions :

Ammonium carbonate is dissociated according to the balanced equation:

(NH₄)₂CO₃ → 2NH₄⁺ + CO₃²⁻.

It is clear that every 1.0 mole of (NH₄)₂CO₃ is dissociated to produce 2.0 moles of NH₄⁺ ions and 1.0 mole of CO₃²⁻ ions.

∴ The no. of moles of NH₄⁺ ions in 0.05 mol of (NH₄)₂CO₃ = (2.0)(0.05 mol) = 0.1 mol.

3) Number of moles of carbonate ions :

Ammonium carbonate is dissociated according to the balanced equation:

(NH₄)₂CO₃ → 2NH₄⁺ + CO₃²⁻.

It is clear that every 1.0 mole of (NH₄)₂CO₃ is dissociated to produce 2.0 moles of NH₄⁺ ions and 1.0 mole of CO₃²⁻ ions.

∴ The no. of moles of CO₃²⁻ ions in 0.05 mol of (NH₄)₂CO₃ = (1.0)(0.05 mol) = 0.05 mol.

4) Number of moles of hydrogen atoms:

Every 1.0 mol of (NH₄)₂CO₃ contains:

2.0 moles of N atoms, 8.0 moles of H atoms, 1.0 mole of C atoms, and 3.0 moles of O atoms.

∴ The no. of moles of H atoms in 0.05 mol of (NH₄)₂CO₃ = (8.0)(0.05 mol) = 0.4 mol.

5) Number of hydrogen atoms:

It is known that every mole of a molecule or element contains Avogadro's number (6.022 x 10²³) of molecules or atoms.

Using cross multiplication:

1.0 mole of H atoms contains → 6.022 x 10²³ atoms.

0.4 mole of H atoms contains → ??? atoms.

∴ The no. of atoms in 0.4 mol of H atoms = (6.022 x 10²³ molecules)(0.4 mole)/(1.0 mole) = 2.4 x 10²³ molecules.
