How many atoms are in 13.97 liters of water vapor at STP

1 answer:

5 0

Let's assume that water vapor has ideal gas behavior. 
Then we can use ideal gas formula,
PV = nRT

Where, P is the pressure of the gas (Pa), V is the volume of the gas (m³), n is the number of moles of gas (mol), R is the universal gas constant ( 8.314 J mol⁻¹ K⁻¹) and T is temperature in Kelvin.

P = 1 atm = 101325 Pa (standard pressure)
V = 13.97 L = 13.97 x 10⁻³ m³
n = ?
R = 8.314 J mol⁻¹ K⁻¹
T = 0 °C = 273 K (standard temperature)

By substitution,
101325 Pa x 13.97x 10⁻³ m³ = n x 8.314 J mol⁻¹ K⁻¹ x 273 K
n = 0.624 mol

Hence, the moles of water vapor at STP is 0.624 mol.

According to the Avogadro's constant, 1 mole of substance has 6.022 × 10²³ particles.

Hence, number of atoms in water vapor = 0.624 mol x 6.022 × 10²³ mol⁻¹
 = 3.758 x 10²³

Example 8

Name each ionic compound.

CaCl2

AlF3

Co2O3

Solution

Using the names of the ions, this ionic compound is named calcium chloride. It is not calcium(II) chloride because calcium forms only one cation when it forms an ion, and it has a characteristic charge of 2+.

The name of this ionic compound is aluminum fluoride.

We know that cobalt can have more than one possible charge; we just need to determine what it is. Oxide always has a 2− charge, so with three oxide ions, we have a total negative charge of 6−. This means that the two cobalt ions have to contribute 6+, which for two cobalt ions means that each one is 3+. Therefore, the proper name for this ionic compound is cobalt(III) oxide.

How do you know whether a formula—and by extension, a name—is for a molecular compound or for an ionic compound? Molecular compounds form between nonmetals and nonmetals, while ionic compounds form between metals and nonmetals. The periodic table (Figure 3.2 “A Simple Periodic Table”) can be used to determine which elements are metals and nonmetals.

There also exists a group of ions that contain more than one atom. These are called polyatomic ions. Table 3.7 “Common Polyatomic Ions” lists the formulas, charges, and names of some common polyatomic ions. Only one of them, the ammonium ion, is a cation; the rest are anions. Most of them also contain oxygen atoms, so sometimes they are referred to as oxyanions. Some of them, such as nitrate and nitrite, and sulfate and sulfite, have very similar formulas and names, so care must be taken to get the formulas and names correct. Note that the -ite polyatomic ion has one less oxygen atom in its formula than the -ate ion but with the same ionic charge.

Table 3.7 Common Polyatomic Ions

Name Formula and Charge Name Formula and Charge

ammonium NH4+ hydroxide OH−

acetate C2H3O2−, or CH3COO− nitrate NO3−

bicarbonate (hydrogen carbonate) HCO3− nitrite NO2−

bisulfate (hydrogen sulfate) HSO4− peroxide O22−

carbonate CO32− perchlorate ClO4−

chlorate ClO3− phosphate PO43−

chromate CrO42− sulfate SO42−

cyanide CN− sulfite SO32−

dichromate Cr2O72− triiodide I3−

The naming of ionic compounds that contain polyatomic ions follows the same rules as the naming for other ionic compounds: simply combine the name of the cation and the name of the anion. Do not use numerical prefixes in the name if there is more than one polyatomic ion; the only exception to this is if the name of the ion itself contains a numerical prefix, such as dichromate or triiodide.

Writing the formulas of ionic compounds has one important difference. If more than one polyatomic ion is needed to balance the overall charge in the formula, enclose the formula of the polyatomic ion in parentheses and write the proper numerical subscript to the right and outside the parentheses. Thus, the formula between calcium ions, Ca2+, and nitrate ions, NO3−, is properly written Ca(NO3)2, not CaNO32 or CaN2O6. Use parentheses where required. The name of this ionic compound is simply calcium nitrate. Write the proper formula and give the proper name for each ionic compound formed between the two listed ions. cause the ammonium ion has a 1+ charge and the sulfide ion has a 2− charge, we need two ammonium ions to balance the charge on a single sulfide ion. Enclosing the formula for the ammonium ion in parentheses, we have (NH4)2S. The compound’s name is ammonium sulfide.

Because the ions have the same magnitude of charge, we need only one of each to balance the charges. The formula is AlPO4, and the name of the compound is aluminum phosphate.

Neither charge is an exact multiple of the other, so we have to go to the least common multiple of 6. To get 6+, we need three iron(II) ions, and to get 6−, we need two phosphate ions. The proper formula is Fe3(PO4)2, and the compound’s name is iron(II) phosphate.

The decomposition of N2O4 into NO2 has Kp = 2. Some N2O4 is placed into an empty container, and the partial pressure of NO2 at e

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer: Option (B) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Expression for the given decomposition reaction is as follows.

$N_{2}O_{4} \rightarrow 2NO_{2}$

Let us assume that x concentration of $N_{2}O_{4}$ is present at the initial stage. Therefore, according to the ICE table,

$N_{2}O_{4} \rightarrow 2NO_{2}$

Initial : x 0

Change : - 0.1 $2 \times 0.1$

Equilibrium : (x - 0.1) 0.2

Now, expression for $K_{p}$ of this reaction is as follows.

$K_{p} = \frac{P^{2}_{NO_{2}}}{P_{N_{2}O_{4}}}$

Putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

$K_{p} = \frac{P^{2}_{NO_{2}}}{P_{N_{2}O_{4}}}$

$2 = \frac{(0.2)^{2}}{(x - 0.1)}$

$2 \times (x - 0.1) = (0.2)^{2}$

x = 0.12

This means that $P_{N_{2}O_{4}}$ = x = 0.12 atm.

Thus, we can conclude that the initial pressure in the container prior to decomposition is 0.12 atm.

Wha do u do when u get in a fight wit yo best friend?

Talk to them and listen to each other. if they aren’t ready to talk, give them space. once both of you are ready, you can make up and forgive each other. don’t bother them by asking a lot of questions and forcing them to talk to you. and if they’re doing that, tell them you need time to think. just be sure to talk to them, listen, and understand. tell each other both sides of the stories. of course, different situations can require different solutions. so resolve it when it’s time :)
