If you place 1.0 L of ethanol (C2H5OH) in a small laboratory that is 3.0 m long, 2.0 m wide, and 2.0 m high, will all the alcohol evaporate? If some liquid remains, how much will there be? The vapor pressure of ethyl alcohol at 25 °C is 59 mm Hg, and the density of the liquid at this temperature is 0.785g/cm^3 .

will all the alcohol evaporate? or none at all?

Answer:

Yes, all the ethanol present in the laboratory will evaporate since the mole of ethanol present in vapor is greater. The volume of ethanol left will therefore  be zero.

Explanation:

Given that:

The volume of alcohol which is placed in a small laboratory = 1.0 L

Vapor pressure of ethyl alcohol  at 25 ° C = 59 mmHg

Converting 59 mmHg to atm ; since 1 atm = 760 mmHg;

Then, we have:

= \frac{59}{760}atm

= 0.078 atm

Temperature = 25 ° C

= ( 25 + 273 K)

= 298 K.

Density of the ethanol = 0.785 g/cm³

The volume of laboratory = l × b × h

= 3.0 m × 2.0 m × 2.5 m

= 15 m³

Converting the volume of laboratory to liter;

since 1 m³ = 100 L; Then, we  have:

15 × 1000 = 15,000 L

Using ideal gas equation to determine the moles of ethanol in vapor phase; we have:

PV = nRT

Making n the subject of the formula; we have:

n = \frac{PV}{RT}

n = \frac{0.078 * 15000}{0.082*290}

n = 47. 88 mol of ethanol

Moles of ethanol in 1.0 L bottle can be calculated as follows:

Since  numbers of moles = \frac{mass}{molar mass}

and mass = density × vollume

Then; we can say ;

number of moles = \frac{density*volume }{molar mass of ethanol}

number of moles =\frac{0.785g/cm^3*1000cm^3}{46.07g/mol}

number of moles = \frac{&85}{46.07}

number of moles = 17.039 mol

Thus , all the ethanol present in the laboratory will evaporate since the mole of ethanol present in vapor is greater. The volume of ethanol left will therefore be zero.

To demonstrate the formation of iron (iii) chloride from iron fillings
Pavel [41]

Iron (iii) chloride is obtained by vapor condensation from the reaction between chlorine gas and iron fillings.

<h3>How can iron (iii) chloride be formed from iron fillings?</h3>

Iron (ii) chloride can be formed from iron fillings in the laboratory as follows:

  • Iron fillings + Cl₂ → FeCl₃

Chlorine gas is introduced into a reaction vessel containing iron fillings and the iron (iii) chloride vapor formed is obtained by condensation.

In conclusion, iron (iii) chloride is formed by the the direct combination of iron fillings and chlorine gas.

A student carefully placed 15.6 g of sodium in a reactor supplied with chlorine gas. When the reaction was complete, the student
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

24.09 grams of chlorine gas reacted.

Explanation:

2Na(s)+Cl_2(g)\rightarrow 2NaCl(s)

Moles of sodium chloride = \frac{39.7 g}{58.5 g/mol}=0.6786 mol

According to reaction, 2 moles of  NaCl are formed from 1 mole chlorine gas.

Then 0.6786 moles of NaCl will be formed from;

\frac{1}{2}\times 0.6786 mole=0.3393 mol

Mass of 0.3393 moles of chlorine  gas:

0.3393 mol × 71 g/mol = 24.09 g

24.09 grams of chlorine gas reacted.
