A student collects 350 mL of a vapor at a temperature of 67°C. The atmospheric pressure at the time of collection is 0.900 atm.

The student determines that the mass of the vapor collected is 0.79 g. What is the molar mass of the gas?
36 g/mol
72 g/mol
88 g/mol
176 g/mol

Answer:

Explanation:

This problem is very similar to the other that you put before, so, we'll use the same principle here.

The ideal gas equation: PV = nRT

Where:

P: pressure in atm

V: volume in L

T: Temperature in K.

n: moles

R: Gas constant (In this case, we'll use 0.082 L atm/K)

to get the molar mass of the gas, we need to know the moles, and with the mass, we can know the molar mass. However we can put the ideal gas expression with the molar mass in this way:

we know that n is mole so:

n = g/MM

If we put this in the idea gases expression we have:

PV = gRT/MM

Solving for MM we have:

MM = gRT/PV

Now, let's convert the temperature and volume to K and L respectively:

T = 67 + 273 = 340 K

V = 350 / 1000 = 0.35 L

Now all we have to do is put all the data into the expression:

MM = 0.79 * 0.082 * 340 / 0.9 * 0.35

MM = 22.0252 / 0.315 = 69.92 g/mol rounded 70 g/mol

Now, the closest answer of your options would be 72 g/mol. This could be easily explained because we do not use all the significant figures of all numbers, including the gas constant of R. However, all the work, calculations and procedure is correct and fine, and we only have a minimum range of 2 units.

If measuring experimental results, what can you predict about the work output of a 1200 watt hair dryer? the work output of the
eimsori [14]

Answer: first option, the work output of the hairdryer will be less than the work input.


Explanation:


1) The work output measured in watts is the power of hair dryer measured in joules per second.


2) The hair dryer converts electrical energy from the wall outlet to mechanical and thermal energy: hot wind.


3) Nevertheless, you can never expect a 100% efficiency of the machines: due to friction, some energy is converted into useless energy.


So, efiiviency = power output / power input< 1 ⇒


power output = work output / time


input power = work input / time


⇒ work output / work input < 1


⇒ work output < work input.


Which is the first option: the work output of the hairdryer will be less than the work input

What is the electron configuration for sulfur? A. 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p4 B. 1s2 1p6 2s2 2p6 3s2 C. 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p3 4s1 D. 1s2 2
3241004551 [841]
Sulfur has two filled energy levels and six electrons on the third energy level. The corresponding electron configuration is A.
B is incorrect because there are no p orbitals at the first energy level, ie, no 1p orbitals. C is incorrect because the 4s1 electron would spontaneously drop into the 3p orbitals. D is incorrect because the 3d electrons would spontaneously drop into the 3p orbitals.

In a chemical reaction, energy can be A. released. B. absorbed. C. released or absorbed. D. neither released nor absorbed.
Inessa05 [86]
C. released or absorbed.

When the energy is released the reaction is called exotermic reaction
When the energy is absorbed, the reaction is called endothermic reaction

An example of exotermic reaction is between water and H2SO4
