  • A gas can be compressed by increasing the pressure and decreasing the temperature.
  • FOR example the gas in domestic LPG cylinders are in compressed form inside the cylinder.
  • A gas takes the form of a liquid after compressing. Whenever it comes back to normal temperature and pressure it takes back to its gaseous form back.

The gaseous oxygen is water soluble and does not react with it

Calculate the quantity of energy required to change 8.22 mol of liquid water to steam at 100oc. the molar heat of vaporization o
Ainat [17]
Since  the water  is  at  100 degrees  then   it take  40.6 kj/mol   to  change 1  mole of  water at 100 degrees into  steam at  100  degrees
  the  moles  of water  8.22mol
since  one  mole  take 40.6kj/mol   8.22mol  will  be  =
8.22mol  x  40.6 kj/mol =333.732  kj
