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.

1) 2
2) 2
3) there are 2 atoms of hydrogen and 1 atom of oxygen, altogether is 3
4) subscript tells how many atoms of each element are present in the molecule
5) No, it is not balanced because the oxygen atom is not equal on both sides of the reactants and products. This wouldn’t be considered balanced as there are two oxygen atoms in the reactants section and only one oxygen on the products section.

It is:
2 H2 + O2 -> 2 H2O

A buffer solution is composed of 7.50 mol of acid and 4.75 mol of the conjugate base. If the pKa of the acid is 4.90 , what is t
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is: pH= 4.70

Explanation:

We use the <em>Henderson-Hasselbach equation</em> in order to calculate the pH of a buffer solution:

pH= pKa + log   \frac{ [conjugate base]}{[acid]}

Given:

pKa= 4.90

[conjugate base]= 4.75 mol

[acid]= 7.50 mol

We calculate pH as follows:

pH = 4.90 + log (4.75 mol/7.50 mol) = 4.90 + (-0.20) = 4.70

The enthalpies of formation of the compounds in the combustion of methane, , are CH4 (g): Hf = –74.6 kJ/mol; CO2 (g): Hf = –393.
algol [13]

Answer:

The amount of energy released from the combustion of 2 moles of methae is 1,605.08 kJ/mol

Explanation:

The chemical reaction of the combustion of methane is given as follows;

CH₄ (g) + 2O₂ (g) → CO₂ (g) + 2H₂O (g)

Hence, 1 mole of methane combines with 2 moles of oxygen gas to form 1 mole of carbon dioxide and 2 moles of water vapor

Where:

CH₄ (g): Hf = -74.6 kJ/mol

CO₂ (g): Hf = -393.5 kJ/mol

H₂O (g): Hf = -241.82 kJ/mol

Therefore, the combustion of 1 mole of methane releases;

-393.5 kJ/mol × 1 + 241.82 kJ/mol × 2 + 74.6 kJ/mol = -802.54 kJ/mol

Hence the combustion of 2 moles of methae will rellease;

2 × -802.54 kJ/mol or 1,605.08 kJ/mol.

What is the application of Complexometric titration? ​
PtichkaEL [24]

Explanation:

Complexometric titration (sometimes chelatometry) is a form of volumetric analysis in which the formation of a colored complex is used to indicate the end point of a titration. Complexometric titrations are particularly useful for the determination of a mixture of different metal ions in solution.

53. Which of the following is NOT a correct interpretation of CH2O, the formula of the compound formaldehyde?
Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

B There are two grams of hydrogen for each gram of carbon in this compound.

Explanation:

The second option is a wrong interpretation of this chemical representation of formaldehyde.

Formaldehyde is an organic compound with the formula CH₂O.

As this is the simplest formula of the compound, it is the empirical formula. Also, the formula is the actual one for the compound and it is the molecular formula.

Chemically, the formula shows 1 mole of carbon, 2 moles of H and 1 mole of oxygen in the compound.

  • A mole of a substance is more a less a unit of measurement in chemistry and it is the amount of substance that contains the avogadro's number of particles.

This ratio is not the mass of chemical species in the compound. You cannot tell the mass of elements in a compound by merely looking at the formula.
