Metal carbonates decompose to the metal oxide and CO2 on heating according to this general equation. Mx(CO3)is) → My(s) + yCO2(g

) You heat 0.0900 g of a white, solid carbonate of a Group 2A metal and find that the evolved CO2 has a pressure of 69.8 mm Hg in a 285 mL flask at 25 °C. Determine the molar mass of the metal carbonate.

Answer:

84.11 g/mol

Explanation:

A metal from group 2A will form the cation M²⁺, and the ion carbonate is CO₃²⁻, so the metal carbonate must be: MCO₃, and the reaction:

MCO₃(s) → MO(s) + CO₂(g)

For the stoichiometry of the reaction, 1 mol of MCO₃(s) will produce 1 mol of CO₂. Using the ideal gas law, it's possible to calculate the number of moles of CO₂:

PV = nRT , where P is the pressure, V is the volume(0.285 L), R is the gas constant (62.36 mmHg*L/mol*K), n is the number of moles, and T is the temperature (25 + 273 = 298 K).

69.8*0.285 = n*62.36*298

18583.28n = 19.893

n = 0.00107 mol

So, the number of moles of the metal carbonate is 0.00107. The molar mass is the mass divided by the number of moles:

0.0900/0.00107 = 84.11 g/mol

Nitrogen and hydrogen combine to form ammonia.
zhenek [66]

The balanced chemical equation for the formation ammonia is

    N2(g) + 3H2(g)  ----> 2NH3(g)  .        

The balanced chemical equations explains that the same number of each element exist as reactants and products.  The coefficients in a balanced equation must be the simplest whole number ratio. Mass is always conserved in chemical reactions.

For the formation of ammonia, the chemical equation is

     N2(g) + H2(g)  ----> NH3(g)

Balancing the chemical reaction, we can write,

  N2(g) + 3H2(g)  ----> 2NH3(g)  .  

This equation shows two nitrogen entering the reaction together and two hydrogens entering the reaction together. Since NH3 is multiplied by a coefficient of 2 there are now 2 nitrogen and 6 hydrogens. The 6 hydrogens come from the 2 multiplied by the subscript of 3. This is the balanced chemical reaction.

What is the mass of a piece of iron if its density is 1.98 g/mL and its volume is 2.45 mL?
viktelen [127]

Answer:

4.858 g

Explanation:

Start with the formula

density = \frac{mass}{volume}

density = 1.98 g/mL

volume = 2.45 mL

mass = ??

rearrange the formula to solve for mass

(density) x (volume) = mass

Add in the substitutes and solve for mass

1.98 g/mL x 2.45 mL = 4.858 g

The following questions pertain to a system contains 122 g CO(g) in a 0.400 L container at -71.2 degrees C.
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

a. P = 182 atm

Explanation:

Data Given:

amount of CO = 122g

Volume of CO = .400 L

Temperature of CO =  -71.2°C

Convert the temperature to Kelvin

T = °C + 273

T =  -71.2 + 273

T =  201.8 K

a. Calculate the pressure exerted by the CO(g) in this system using the ideal gas equation (P) = ?

Solution:

To calculate Pressure by using ideal gas formula

                  PV = nRT

Rearrange the equation for Pressure

                   P = nRT / V . . . . . . . . . (1)

where

P = pressure

V = Volume

T= Temperature

n = Number of moles

R = ideal gas constant = 0.08206 L.atm / mol. K

For this we have to know the mole of the gas and the following formula will be used

                 no. of moles = mass in grams / molar mass . . . . . . (2)

Molar mass of CO = 12 + 16 = 28 g/mol

Put values in equation 2

                no. of moles = 122 g / 28 g/mol

                no. of moles = 4.4 mol

Now put the value in formula (1) to calculate Pressure for CO

P = 4.4 x 201.8 K x 0.08206 (L.atm/mol. K) / 0.400 L

P = 182 atm

So the pressure will be 182 atm

__________

b. Data Given:

Actual pressure exerted by CO = 145 atm

expected pressure exerted by CO = 182 atm

why the actual pressure is less than what would be expected = ?

Explanation:

This is because of the deviation from ideal behavior of real gases.

The real gases approach to ideal behavior under very high temperature and very low pressure.

But CO deviate from ideal behavior to give expected value for pressure, because it behave at high pressure and low temperature.

This non-ideal behavior is due to two postulate of ideal behavior

  • gas molecules have negligible volume
  • Gas molecules have negligible inter-molecular interaction

but these postulates not obeyed under real condition. so we calculated the pressure using ideal condition values for gas and obtained the expected value for pressure but the actual pressure value was detected under normal condition.

A spectral line has a wavelength of 7.35 *10-7 m. What is the energy of this radiation?
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

2.7 x 10^-19 J

Explanation:

The formula needed for this problem is

E = hν

where E = energy, h = Planck's constant = 6.626x10^-34 and ν is the frequency

c = λν

where c = speed of light = 3x10^8, and λ = wavelength

3x10^8 = 7.35x10^-7 . ν

ν = 4.08 x 10^14 Hz

E = 6.626x10^-34 . 4.08x10^14 = 2.7 x 10^-19 J
