Answer:

Partial pressure of methane: 1.18 atm

Partial pressure of ethane: 1.45 atm

Partial pressure of propane: 2.35 atm

Explanation:

Let the total moles of gases in a container be n.

Total pressure of the gases in a container =P = 5.0 atm

Temperature of the gases in a container =T = 23°C = 296.15 K

Volume of the container = V = 10.0 L

PV=nRT (Ideal gas equation)

n=\frac{PV}{RT}=\frac{5.0 atm\times 10.0 L}{0.0821 atm L/mol K\times 296.15 K}=2.0564 mol

Moles of methane gas =n_1=\frac{8.00 g}{16.04 g/mol}=0.4878 mol

Moles of ethane gas =n_2=\frac{18.00 g}{30.07 g/mol}=0.5986 mol

Moles of propane gas =n_3=?

n=n_1+n_2+n_3

n_3=n-n_1-n_2=2.0564 mol-0.4878 mol-0.5986 mol= 0.9700 mol

Partial pressure of all the gases can be calculated by using Raoult's law:

p_i=P\times \chi_i

p_i = partial pressure of 'i' component.

\chi_1 = mole fraction of 'i' component in mixture

P = total pressure of the mixture

Partial pressure of methane:

p_1=P\times \chi_1=P\times \frac{n_1}{n_1+n+2+n_3}=P\times \frac{n_1}{n}

p_1=5.00 atm\times \frac{0.4878 mol}{2.0564 mol}=1.18 atm

Partial pressure of ethane:

p_2=P\times \chi_2=P\times \frac{n_2}{n_1+n+2+n_3}=P\times \frac{n_2}{n}

p_2=5.00 atm\times \frac{0.5986 mol}{2.0564 mol}=1.45 atm

Partial pressure of propane:

p_3=P\times \chi_3=P\times \frac{n_3}{n_1+n+2+n_3}=P\times \frac{n_3}{n}

p_3=5.00 atm\times \frac{0.9700 mol}{2.0564 mol}=2.35 atm

Assuming that the bath contains 250.0 g of water and that the calorimeter itself absorbs a negligible amount of heat, calculate
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

-3272     kJ/mol

Explanation:

Given and known facts

Mass of Benzene = 0.187 grams

Mass of water = 250 grams

Standard heat capacity of water = 4.18 J/g∙°C

Change in temperature ΔT = 7.48°C

Heat

=250 * 4.18 * 7.48\\=7816.6 \\=7.82

Heat released by benzine is - 7.82 kJ

Now, we know that

0.187 grams of benzene release = -7.82  kJ heat

So, 1 g benzine releases

\frac{ -7.82 }{0.187}\\= -41.8

kJ/g

0.187 * \frac{1}{78.108}=0.00239 mol C6H6

Heat released

= \frac{-7.82}{ 0.00239}

=-3272     kJ/mol

I need help with 1,2,3, and 4
Schach [20]

Answer:

  • Problem 1: 1.85atm
  • Problem 2: 110mL
  • Problem 3: 290 mL
  • Problem 4: 1.14 atm

Explanation:

Problem 1

<u>1. Data</u>

<u />

a) P₁ = 3.25atm

b) V₁ = 755mL

c) P₂ = ?

d) V₂ = 1325 mL

r) T = 65ºC

<u>2. Formula</u>

Since the temeperature is constant you can use Boyle's law for idial gases:

          PV=constant\\\\P_1V_1=P_2V_2

<u>3. Solution</u>

Solve, substitute and compute:

         P_1V_1=P_2V_2\\\\P_2=P_1V_1/V_2

        P_2=3.25atm\times755mL/1325mL=1.85atm

Problem 2

<u>1. Data</u>

<u />

a) V₁ = 125 mL

b) P₁ = 548mmHg

c) P₁ = 625mmHg

d) V₂ = ?

<u>2. Formula</u>

You assume that the temperature does not change, and then can use Boyl'es law again.

          P_1V_1=P_2V_2

<u>3. Solution</u>

This time, solve for V₂:

           P_1V_1=P_2V_2\\\\V_2=P_1V_1/P_2

Substitute and compute:

        V_2=548mmHg\times 125mL/625mmHg=109.6mL

You must round to 3 significant figures:

        V_2=110mL

Problem 3

<u>1. Data</u>

<u />

a) V₁ = 285mL

b) T₁ = 25ºC

c) V₂ = ?

d) T₂ = 35ºC

<u>2. Formula</u>

At constant pressure, Charle's law states that volume and temperature are inversely related:

         V/T=constant\\\\\\\dfrac{V_1}{T_1}=\dfrac{V_2}{T_2}

The temperatures must be in absolute scale.

<u />

<u>3. Solution</u>

a) Convert the temperatures to kelvins:

  • T₁ = 25 + 273.15K = 298.15K

  • T₂ = 35 + 273.15K = 308.15K

b) Substitute in the formula, solve for V₂, and compute:

        \dfrac{V_1}{T_1`}=\dfrac{V_2}{T_2}\\\\\\\\\dfrac{285mL}{298.15K}=\dfrac{V_2}{308.15K}\\\\\\V_2=308.15K\times285mL/298.15K=294.6ml

You must round to two significant figures: 290 ml

Problem 4

<u>1. Data</u>

<u />

a) P = 865mmHg

b) Convert to atm

<u>2. Formula</u>

You must use a conversion factor.

  • 1 atm = 760 mmHg

Divide both sides by 760 mmHg

       \dfrac{1atm}{760mmHg}=\dfrac{760mmHg}{760mmHg}\\\\\\1=\dfrac{1atm}{760mmHg}

<u />

<u>3. Solution</u>

Multiply 865 mmHg by the conversion factor:

    865mmHg\times \dfrac{1atm}{760mmHg}=1.14atm\leftarrow answer
