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

Write a balanced half-reaction for the oxidation of aqueous hydrazine N2H4 to gaseous nitrogen N2 in basic aqueous solution
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

N2H2(aq) + 2OH^-(aq) ----------> N2(g) + 2H2O(l) + 2e

Explanation:

Hydrazine is mostly used in thermal engineering as an anticorrosive agent. Hydrazine can be oxidized in aqueous solution as shown in the equation above. Oxidation has to do with loss of electrons and increase in oxidation number.

The oxidation number of nitrogen in the equation increased from -1 in hydrazine on the lefthand side of the reaction equation to zero in nitrogen on the right hand side of the reaction equation. Two electrons were lost in the process as shown.

1.Explain why the reactivity of group 7 decreases as you move down the group. Try to use the sentence starters here: When group
Kruka [31]

Answer: The reactivity of group 7 decreases as we move down the group because:

Explanation:

The elements of group 7 that is fluorine to iodine. The halogens are non metals and they react with metals to gain electrons. The metals loose electrons and the non metal gains it.

As we move down the group  the atomic radius gets bigger( more electron and more proton) and as a result the outer shells move further away from the nucleus.

There is more distance between the negatively charged electrons and positively charged nucleus.

Therefore the force of attraction between the shells and nucleus is lesser or weaker.

This makes attracting an extra electron from metals very difficult which results in weaker reaction.

Consequently, the reactivity decreases as we move down the group 7
