Answer:

(a) Density of the air = 1.204 kg/m3

(b) Pressure = 93772 Pa or 0.703 mmHg

(c) Force needed to open the door =  15106 N

Explanation:

(a) The density of the air at 22 deg C and 1 atm can be calculated using the Ideal Gas Law:

\rho_{air}=\frac{P}{R*T}

First, we change the units of P to Pa and T to deg K:

P=1 atm * \frac{101,325Pa}{1atm}=101,325 Pa\\\\ T=22+273.15=293.15^{\circ}K

Then we have

\rho_{air}=\frac{P}{R*T}=\frac{101325Pa}{287.05 J/(kg*K)*293.15K} =1.204 \frac{kg}{m3}

(b) To calculate the change in pressure, we use again the Ideal Gas law, expressed in another way:

PV=nRT\\P/T=nR/V=constant\Rightarrow P_{1}/T_{1}=P_{2}/T_{2}\\\\P_{2}=P_{1}*\frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}}=101325Pa*\frac{7+273.15}{22+273.15}=101,325Pa*0.9254=93,772Pa\\\\P2=93,772 Pa*\frac{1mmHg}{133,322Pa}= 0.703 mmHg

(c) To calculate the force needed to open we have to multiply the difference of pressure between the inside of the freezer and the outside and the surface of the door. We also take into account that Pa = N/m2.

F=S_{door}*\Delta P=2m^{2} *(101325Pa - 93772Pa)=2m^{2} *7553N/m2=15106N

Convert 213.62 grams of xenon gas at STP to L.
jolli1 [7]

Answer: The coefficient is 3.645

The exponent is 1

There are 4 significant digits

The rightmost significant figure is 5

Explanation:

Scientific notation is defined as the representation of expressing the numbers that are too big or too small and are represented in the decimal form with one digit before the decimal point times 10 raise to the power.

For example : 5000 is written as 5.0\times 10^3

According to avogadro's law, 1 mole of every gas contains avogadro's number 6.023\times 10^{23} of particles, occupy 22.4 L at STP and weighs equal to its molecular mass.

131.29 g of Xe occupy = 22.4 L at STP.

Thus 213.62 g of Xe occupy = \frac{22.4}{131.29}\times 213.62=36.45L at STP.

Scientific notation = 3.645\times 10^1L

The coefficient is 3.645

The exponent is 1

There are 4 significant digits

The rightmost significant figure is 5

What volume will be occupied by 5.00 mol of a gas at 25°C and 0.500<br> atm pressure?"
fomenos

Answer:

The volume will be occupied is 244, 36L.

Explanation:

We convert the unit of temperature to celsius into Kelvin, then use the ideal gas formula, solve for V (volume) and use the gas constant R =0.082 l atm / K mol:

0°C=273K  25°C= 273 + 25=298K

PV=nRT ---> V=nRT/P

V= 5,00 mol x 0,082 l atm/ K mol x 298 K/0,500 atm

<em>V=244,36L</em>
