How many moles of nitrogen gas are present in a 28.9 dm3 temperature of 55.0 °C and a pressure of 144 kPa?
jeka57 [31]

Given :

Temperature, T = 55° C = ( 55 + 273 ) K = 328 K .

Volume of container, V = 28.9 dm³ = 0.0289 m³ .

Pressure, P = 144 kPa = 144000 Pa .

To Find :

Number of moles of nitrogen  gas.

Solution :

We know, by ideal gas equation :

PV = nRT  ( R ( universal gas constant ) = 8.31 J K⁻¹ mol⁻¹ .

n = \dfrac{PV}{RT}\\\\n = \dfrac{144000\times 0.0289}{8.31 \times 328} \ moles\\\\n = \dfrac{4161.6}{2725.68}\\\\n = 1.53 \ moles

Therefore, number of moles of nitrogen gas is 1.53 moles.

What mass of h2o is formed when h2 reacts with 384 grams of o2?
Tasya [4]
Answer is: mass of water is 432 grams.
Chemical reaction: 2H₂ + O₂ → 2H₂O.
m(O₂) = 384 g.
M(O₂) = 2 · 16 g/mol = 32 g/mol, molar mass.
n(O₂) = m(O₂) ÷ M(O₂).
n(O₂) = 384 g ÷ 32 g/mol.
n(O₂) = 12 mol, amount of substance.
From chemical reaction: n(O₂) : n(H₂O) = 1 : 2.
n(H₂O) = 12 mol · 2 = 24 mol.
m(H₂O) = n(H₂O) · M(H₂O).
m(H₂O) = 24 mol · 18 g/mol.
m(H₂O) = 432 g.

A 25.0 sample of liquid has a mass of 22.1 grams what's the liquids density
lyudmila [28]

The density of the liquid is 0.884 g/mL.

<em>Density = mass/volume</em> =  22.1 g/25.0 mL = 0.884 g/mL
