A mothball, composed of naphthalene (C10H8), has a mass of 1.52g. How many naphthalene molecules does it contain?

Chemistry

Anna35 [415]3 years ago

The molar mass of naphthalene is calculated as follows,
                          10 x (12.01 g/ mol) + 8 x (1.01 g/mol) = 128.12 g/mol
Divide the given mass by the molar mass to determine the number of moles of naphthalene present in the ball.
                                  n =  1.52 g / 128.12 g/mol  = 0.01186 mole
Multiply the number of moles to number of moles per mole.
                                 (0.01186 mol) x (6.022 x10^23 molecules / mole) = 7.14 x 10^21 molecules

A 2.0 L container of nitrogen gas had a pressure of 3.2 atm. What volume would be necessary to decrease the pressure to 1.0 atm
beks73 [17]

Answer:

6.4 L

Explanation:

When all other variables are held constant, you can use Boyle's Law to find the missing volume:

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

In this equation, "P₁" and "V₁" represent the initial pressure and volume. "P₂" and "V₂" represent the final pressure and volume. You can find the theoretical volume by plugging the given values into the equation and simplifying.

P₁ = 3.2 atm                      P₂ = 1.0 atm

V₁ = 2.0 L                          V₂ = ? L

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂                                                    <----- Boyle's Law

(3.2 atm)(2.0 L) = (1.0 atm)V₂                        <----- Insert values

6.4 = (1.0 atm)V₂                                           <----- Simplify left side

6.4 = V₂                                                        <----- Divide both sides by 1.0

(You do) If you have 47.2 mol of Na available, along with an excess of Cl₂, how many grams of NaCl can you produce?
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

2,760 grams NaCl

Explanation:

To find grams of NaCl, you need to (1) convert moles of Na to moles of NaCl (via mole-to-mole ratio from reaction) and (2) convert moles of NaCl to grams (via molar mass from periodic table). The final answer should have 3 significant figures based on the given measurement.

2 Na + Cl₂ --> 2 NaCl

Molar Mass (NaCl) = 22.99 g/mol + 35.45 g/mol

Molar Mass (NaCl) = 58.44 g/mol

47.2 moles Na           2 moles NaCl              58.44 grams

----------------------  x  ---------------------------  x  -------------------------  =
                                   2 moles Na                   1 mole NaCl

= 2,758.368 grams NaCl

= 2,760 grams NaCl

calculate the volume occupied by 10g of propane gas, under normal conditions of temperature and pressure
andriy [413]

Answer:

5.5 L

Explanation:

First we <u>convert 10 g of propane gas</u> (C₃H₈) to moles, using its <em>molar mass</em>:

  • 10 g ÷ 44 g/mol = 0.23 mol

Then we <u>use the PV=nRT formula</u>, where:

  • P = 1 atm & T = 293 K (This are normal conditions of T and P)
  • n = 0.23 mol
  • R = 0.082 atm·L·mol⁻¹·K⁻¹
  • V = ?

1 atm * V = 0.23 mol * 0.082 atm·L·mol⁻¹·K⁻¹ * 293 K

  • V = 5.5 L
