Answer: P = 1.37 atm

Explanation: For this problem we will use the Gay Lussac Law which is P1/T1 = P2/T2 then derive for P2 which is the outside pressure. Also remember to convert the units of temperature from °C to Kelvin.

T1 = 20°C + 273 = 293 K

T2 = -5°C + 273 = 268 K

P2 = P1 T2 / T1

= 1.50 atm ( 268 K ) / 293 K

= 1.37 atm

Cancel out the units of K so that the remaining unit will be in atm.

Answer:

P₂ = 1.4 Atm

Explanation:

Volume is assumed to be constant => Gay-Lussac Law => P ∝ T (Decreasing Temperature => Decreasing Pressure expected).

=> Empirical Relationship => P₁/T₁ = P₂/T₂

P₁ = 1.5Atm P₂ = ?

V₁ = V₂ V₂ = V₁

T₁ = 20.0°c (=293K) T₂ = -5°C (=268K)

P₁/T₁ = P₂/T₂ => P₂ = P₁(T₂/T₁) = 1.5Atm(268K/293K) = 1.4Atm

What is the mass of phosphorus that contains twice the number of atoms found in 14

yulyashka [42]

Answer:

15.5 gm

Explanation:

What is the mass of phosphorus that contains twice the number of atoms found in 14 g of iron?

[Relative atomic mass : P = 31; Fe = 56]

14 gm Fe = 14gm/ 56 gm/mole = 14 mole gm/56gm = 14/56 mole

0.25 moles

2 X 0.25 = 0.5 moles

1 mole P = 31 gm

0.5 moles P =31/2 =15.5 gm

Name the following ionic compounds, keeping in mind that a transition metal cation must include its charge. ____________________

Lilit [14]

Answer :

(a) The name for $TiO_2$ is titanium(IV) oxide.

(b) The name for $BaCl_2$ is barium chloride.

(c) The name for $CuCl_3$ is copper(III) chloride.

(d) The name for $KI$ is potassium iodide.

(e) The name for $SrCl_2$ is strontium chloride.

(f) The name for $CuBr_2$ is copper(II) bromide.

Explanation :

Ionic compound : It is defined as the compound which is formed when electron gets transferred from one atom to another atom.

Ionic compound are usually formed when a metal reacts with a non-metal.

The nomenclature of ionic compounds is given by:

1. Positive ion is written first.

2. The negative ion is written next and a suffix is added at the end of the negative ion. The suffix written is '-ide'.

3. In case of transition metals, the oxidation state are written in roman numerals in bracket in-front of positive ions.

(a) $TiO_2$

$TiO_2$ is an ionic compound because titanium element is a metal and oxygen element is a non-metal. The bond formed between a metal and a non-metal is always ionic in nature.

The charge on tin is (+4) and the the charge on oxygen is (-2). Thus, the name for $TiO_2$ is titanium(IV) oxide.

(b) $BaCl_2$

$BaCl_2$ is an ionic compound because barium element is a metal and chlorine element is a non-metal. The bond formed between a metal and a non-metal is always ionic in nature.

The charge on barium is (+2) and the the charge on chlorine is (-1). Thus, the name for $BaCl_2$ is barium chloride.

(c) $CuCl_3$

$CuCl_3$ is an ionic compound because copper element is a metal and chlorine element is a non-metal. The bond formed between a metal and a non-metal is always ionic in nature.

The charge on copper is (+3) and the the charge on chlorine is (-1). Thus, the name for $CuCl_3$ is copper(III) chloride.

(d) $KI$

$KI$ is an ionic compound because potassium element is a metal and iodine element is a non-metal. The bond formed between a metal and a non-metal is always ionic in nature.

The charge on potassium is (+1) and the the charge on iodine is (-1). Thus, the name for $KI$ is potassium iodide.

(e) $SrCl_2$

$SrCl_2$ is an ionic compound because strontium element is a metal and chlorine element is a non-metal. The bond formed between a metal and a non-metal is always ionic in nature.

The charge on strontium is (+2) and the the charge on chlorine is (-1). Thus, the name for $SrCl_2$ is strontium chloride.

(f) $CuBr_2$

$CuBr_2$ is an ionic compound because copper element is a metal and bromine element is a non-metal. The bond formed between a metal and a non-metal is always ionic in nature.

The charge on copper is (+2) and the the charge on bromine is (-1). Thus, the name for $CuBr_2$ is copper(II) bromide.

What mass of carbon dioxide is produced from the complete combustion of 5.30x10-3 g of methane?

pshichka [43]

Answer:

1.45 x 10⁻² g CO₂

Explanation:

To find the mass of carbon dioxide, you need to (1) convert grams CH₄ to moles CH₄ (via molar mass), then (2) convert moles CH₄ to moles CO₂ (via mole-to-mole ratio from reaction coefficients), and then (3) convert moles CO₂ to grams CO₂ (via molar mass). The final answer should have 3 sig figs to reflect the given value (5.30 x 10⁻³ g).

Molar Mass (CH₄): 12.011 g/mol + 4(1.008 g/mol)

Molar Mass (CH₄): 16.043 g/mol

Combustion of Methane:

1 CH₄ + 2 O₂ ---> 2 H₂O + 1 CO₂

Molar Mass (CO₂): 12.011 g/mol + 2(15.998 g/mol)

Molar Mass (CO₂): 44.007 g/mol

5.30 x 10⁻³ g CH₄ 1 mole 1 mole CO₂ 44.007 g
--------------------------- x ---------------- x --------------------- x ----------------- =
16.043 g 1 mole CH₄ 1 mole

= 0.0145 g CO₂

= 1.45 x 10⁻² g CO₂

Find the number of moles of water that can be formed if you have 182 mol of hydrogen gas and 86 mol of oxygen gas.

frutty [35]

Water has a chemical formula of H2O. This means that for every 2 moles of hydrogen and 1 mole of oxygen, one mole of water will be formed.

Note that hydrogen gas and oxygen gas are both biatomic molecules.

(1) (182 mol H2) x (1 mol H2O/ 1 mol H2) = 182 mol H2O
(2) (86 mol O2) x (2 mol H2O / 1 mol O2) = 172 mol H2O

We choose the smaller number of the two as the answer to this item. Thus, the answer to this question is 172 mol of H2O can be formed out of the given quantities.
