A piece of solid carbon dioxide, with a mass of 7.8g,is placed in a 4.0-L otherwise empty container at 278C. What is the pressur

e in the container after all the carbon dioxide vapor- izes? If 7.8 g solid carbon dioxide were placed in the same container but it already contained air at 740 torr, what would be the partial pressure of carbon dioxide and the total pressure in the container after the carbon dioxide vaporizes?

Answer:

First question: P = 2.00 atm (1520 torr)

Second question: Partial pressure of carbon dioxide: 2.00 atm (1520 torr); total pressure: 2.97 atm (2260 torr).

Explanation:

The molar mass of caron dioxide, CO₂, is:

12 g/mol of C + 2*16 g/mol of O = 44 g/mol

The number of moles is the mass divided by the molar mass:

n = 7.8/44 = 0.1773 mol

By the ideal gas law:

PV = nRT

Where P is the pressure, V is the volume, n is the number of moles, R is the ideal gas constant (0.082 atm*L/mol*K), and T is the temperature (278ºC + 273 = 551 K).

So, the pressure will be:

P*4 = 0.1773*0.082*551

P = 2.00 atm = 1520 torr

If there was air in the container, the partial pressure of the carbon dioxide will still the same, 2 atm (1520 torr), because the partial pressure is the pressure the substance would have if it eas alone in the container.

The total pressure is the sum of the partial pressures, so

Pt = 740 + 1520 = 2260 torr = 2.97 atm

You mix 145 grams of water with 200 grams of ethanol to make a solution. What is the solute and what is the solvent?
hodyreva [135]

The greater amount is the solvent and the lesser amount is the solute.

Hence ethanol(200g) which is the greater amount is the solvent here.

And water (145g) which is lesser is the solute here.

You need to prepare 1 L of the citric acid/citrate buffer. You have chosen to use Method 1 (see lab presentation). Calculate the
prisoha [69]

Answer:

3.11 is the pH of the buffer

Explanation:

The pH of a buffer is obtained using H-H equation:

pH = pKa + log [Conjugate base] / [Weak acid]

<em>Where pH is the pH of the buffer, pKa = -log Ka = 3.14 for the citric buffer and [] could be taken as the moles of each species.</em>

The citric acid,HX (Weak acid), reacts with NaOH to produce sodium citrate, NaX (weak base) and water:

HX + NaOH → H2O + NaX

That means the moles of NaOH added = Moles of sodium citrate produced

And the resulitng moles of HX = Initial moles - Moles NaOH added

<em>Moles HX and NaX:</em>

Moles NaOH = 0.100L * (0.65mol / L) = 0.065 moles NaOH = Moles NaX

Moles HX = 0.300L * (0.45mol / L) = 0.135 moles HX - 0.065 moles NaOH = 0.070 moles HX

Replacing in H-H equation:

pH = 3.14 + log [0.065mol] / [0.070mol]

pH = 3.11 is the pH of the buffer
