<h2>Answer with Explanation </h2>

Petroleum refining or Oil refining is a manufacturing method in which crude oil is removed from the ground, molded and purified into valuable products like Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG), kerosene, asphalt base, jet fuel, gasoline, heating oil, fuel oils etc. Crude Oil contains hydrocarbon molecules. Refining Petroleum refining relates to the method of transforming crude oil into useful products. Crude oil is made of hundreds of various hydrocarbon molecules, which are distributed by the method of refining.

A person accidentally swallows a drop of liquid oxygen, O2(l), which has a density of 1.149 g/mL. Assuming the drop has a volume
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

First, let's determine how many moles of oxygen we have.

Atomic weight oxygen = 15.999

Molar mass O2 = 2*15.999 = 31.998 g/mol

We have 3 drops at 0.050 ml each for a total volume of 3*0.050ml = 0.150 ml

Since the density is 1.149 g/mol,

we have 1.149 g/ml * 0.150 ml = 0.17235 g of O2

Divide the number of grams by the molar mass to get the number of moles 0.17235 g / 31.998 g/mol = 0.005386274 mol

Now we can use the ideal gas law. The equation PV = nRT where P = pressure (1.0 atm) V = volume n = number of moles (0.005386274 mol) R = ideal gas constant (0.082057338 L*atm/(K*mol) ) T = Absolute temperature ( 30 + 273.15 = 303.15 K)

Now take the formula and solve for V, then substitute the known values and solve.

PV = nRT V = nRT/P V = 0.005386274 mol * 0.082057338 L*atm/(K*mol) * 303.15 K / 1.0 atm V = 0.000441983 L*atm/(K*) * 303.15 K / 1.0 atm V = 0.133987239 L*atm / 1.0 atm V = 0.133987239 L

So the volume (rounded to 3 significant figures) will be 134 ml.

Molarity = moles of solute/volume of solution in liters.

The solute here is NaCl, of which we have 46.5 g. To calculate the molarity of an NaCl solution, we need to know the number of moles of NaCl. To convert from grams to moles, we divide the mass by the molar mass of NaCl. The molar mass of NaCl is the sum of the atomic masses of Na and Cl: 23 amu + 35 amu = 58 amu. For our purposes, we can regard amu as equivalent to grams/mole.

(46.5 g)/(58 g/mol) = 0.8017 moles NaCl.

Now that we know both the number of moles of our NaCl solute and the volume of the solution, we can calculate the molarity:

(0.8017 moles NaCl)/(2.2 L) = 0.364 M.

The decomposition of N2O to N2 and O2 is a first-order reaction. At 730°C, the rate constant of the reaction is 1.94 × 10-4 min-
grin007 [14]

Answer:

Total pressure 5.875 atm

Explanation:

The equation for above decomposition is

2N_2O \rightarrow 2N_2 + O_2

rate constant k =  1.94\times 10^{-4} min^{-1}

Half life t_{1/2} = \frac{0.693}{k} = 3572 min

Initial pressure N_2 O = 4.70 atm

Pressure after 3572 min = P

According to first order kinematics

k = \frac{1}{t} ln\frac{4.70}{P}

1.94\times 10^{-4} = \frac{1}{3572} \frac{4.70}{P}

solving for P we get

P = 2.35 atm

2N_2O \rightarrow 2N_2 + O_2

initial           4.70                         0             0

change        -2x                          +2x           +x

final             4.70 -2x                     2x           x

pressure ofO_2 after first half life  = 2.35 = 4.70 - 2x

                                                          x = 1.175

pressure of N_2 after first half life  =  2x = 2(1.175) = 2.35 ATM

Total pressure  = 2.35 + 2.35 + 1.175

                          = 5.875 atm
