A mouse is placed in a sealed chamber with air at 769.0 torr. This chamber is equipped with enough solid KOH to absorb any CO2 a

nd H2O produced by the mouse. The gas volume in this chamber is measured to be exactly 2.20 L, the temperature is held constant at 292 K. After two hours the pressure inside the bottle falls to 717.1 torr. What mass of oxygen has the mouse consumed?

<u>Answer:</u> The amount of oxygen gas consumed by mouse is 0.202 grams.

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

Initial pressure of air = 769.0 torr

Final pressure of air = 717.1 torr

Pressure of oxygen = Pressure decreased = Initial pressure - Final pressure = (769.0 - 717.1) torr = 51.9 torr

To calculate the amount of oxygen gas consumed, we use the equation given by ideal gas which follows:

PV=nRT

where,

P = pressure of the gas = 51.9 torr

V = Volume of the gas = 2.20 L

T = Temperature of the gas = 292 K

R = Gas constant = 62.364\text{ L. Torr }mol^{-1}K^{-1}

n = number of moles of oxygen gas = ?

Putting values in above equation, we get:

51.9torr\times 2.20L=n\times 62.364\text{ L. Torr }mol^{-1}K^{-1}\times 292K\\\\n=\frac{51.9\times 2.20}{62.364\times 292}=0.0063mol

To calculate the mass from given number of moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}

Moles of oxygen gas = 0.0063 moles

Molar mass of oxygen gas = 32 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

0.0063mol=\frac{\text{Mass of oxygen gas}}{32g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of oxygen gas}=(0.0063mol\times 32g/mol)=0.202g

Hence, the amount of oxygen gas consumed by mouse is 0.202 grams.

Determine how many grams of N2 are produced from the reaction of 8.37 g of H2O2 and 5.29 g of N2H4.
Dmitriy789 [7]
N₂H₄  +  2H₂O₂    →   N₂  +  4H₂O

mol = mass ÷ molar mass

If mass of hydrazine (N₂H₄)  = 5.29 g 
then mol of hydrazine           = 5.29 g ÷ ((14 ×2) + (1 × 4))
                                              = 0.165 mol

mole ratio of hydrazine to Nitogen is     1   :  1
  ∴ if moles of hydrazine = 0.165 mol
     then moles of nitrogen = 0.165 mol

Mass = mol × molar mass

Since mol of nitrogen (N₂)  = 0.165
then mass of hydrazine      = 0.165 × (14 × 2)
                                           = 4.62 g

Would convection work if there were no<br> gravity? Why<br> or<br> why not
Pavel [41]

Answer:

no

Explanation:

Because gravity is necessary for density differences to arise,  convection wouldn't happen in a zero-gravity environment such as space.
