Answer:

0.172g/L

Explanation:

Step 1:

Data obtained from the question:

Temperature (T) = 17°C

Pressure (P) = 773 torr

Step 2:

Conversion to appropriate unit:

For pressure :

760 torr = 1 atm

Therefore, 773 torr = 773/760 = 1.02 atm

For temperature:

Temperature (Kelvin) = temperature (celsius) + 273

temperature (celsius) = 17°C

Temperature (Kelvin) = 17°C + 273 = 290K.

Step 3:

Obtaining an expression for the density.

From the ideal gas equation PV = nRT, we can obtain an equation for the density as follow:

PV = nRT. (1)

But: number of mole(n) = mass (m)/Molar Mass(M) i.e

n = m/M

Substitute the value of n into equation 1

PV = nRT

PV = mRT/M

Divide both side by m

PV /m = RT/M

Divide both side by P

V/m = RT/MP

Invert the above equation

m/V = MP/RT (2)

Recall:

density (d) = mass(m) / volume(V) i.e

d = m/V

Replace m/V in equation 2 with d

m/V = MP/RT

d = MP/RT.

Step 4:

Determination of the density.

Temperature (T) = 290K

Pressure (P) = 1.02 atm

Molar Mass of helium (M) = 4g/mol

Gas constant (R) = 0.082atm.L/Kmol

Density (d) =?

d = MP/RT

d = 4 x 1.02 / 0.082 x 290

d = 0.172g/L

Therefore, the density of the helium gas is 0.172g/L

1. A 10 g gold coin is heated from 25°C to 50°C (CAu is 0.13 J/g-°C). What is the H?
Oksanka [162]
The correct answer is + 32.5 J because heat is absorbed here by copper not evolved also after calculation we will find the H value is positive, lets calculate it:
H = m C Δt where:
m = 10 g 
C = 0.13 J/g.°C
Δ t = final temperature - initial temperature = 50 - 25 = + 25 °C
so H = 10 x 0.13 x (+25) = + 32.5 J

Which statement best explains why heating a liquid affects its velocity
nekit [7.7K]

Part of the answer you are looking for may be- Molecules overcome attractions easily and at high temperatures, move faster- (paraphrased from Google) Since the question asked was not provided with the statements as proposed in the original question, I cannot give you an exact answer. I did what i could do, hope this helps!
