How many liters of carbon dioxide will 0.5 moles of lithium hydroxide (LiOH) absorb?

Elden [556K]

Answer : The volume of carbon dioxide will be, 5.6122 L

Solution : Given,

Moles of LiOH = 0.5 moles

Molar mass of carbon dioxide = 44 g/mole

Density of carbon dioxide = 0.00196 g/ml

First we have to calculate the mass of carbon dioxide.

The balanced reaction will be,

$2LiOH+CO_2\rightarrow Li_2CO_3+H_2O$

From the reaction we conclude that

As, 2 moles of LiOH absorbs 44 grams of carbon dioxide

So, 0.5 moles of LiOH absorbs $\frac{0.5moles}{2moles}\times 44g=11$ grams of carbon dioxide

Mass of carbon dioxide = 11 g

Density of carbon dioxide = 0.00196 g/ml

Now we have to calculate the volume of carbon dioxide.

$Density=\frac{Mass}{volume}$

$0.00196g/ml=\frac{11g}{volume}$

Volume of carbon dioxide = 5612.24 ml = 5.6122 L (1 L = 1000 ml)

Therefore, the volume of carbon dioxide will be, 5.6122 L

Use the following equation to answer the questions below:

Gala2k [10]

Explanation:

The equation of the reaction is given as;

Be + 2HCl → BeCl2 + H2

What is the mass of beryllium required to produce 25.0g of beryllium chloride?

1 mol of Be produces 1 mol of BeCl2

Converting to mass;

Mass = Molar mass * Number of moles

9.01g of Be produces 79.92g of BeCl2

xg of Be produces 25g of BeCl2

Solving for x;

x = 25 * 9.01 / 79.92

x = 2.82 g

What is the mass of hydrochloric acid required to produce 25.0g of beryllium chloride? g

Converting 25.0g of beryllium chloride to moles;

Number of moles = Mass / Molar mass

Number of moles = 25 / 79.92 = 0.3128 mol

2 mol of HCl produces 1 mol of BeCl2

x mol of HCl would produce 0.3128 mol of BeCl2

solving for x;

x = 0.3128 * 2 = 0.6256 mol

Converting to mass;

Mass = 0.6256 * 36.5 = 22.83 g

What is the mass of hydrogen gas produced when 25.0g of beryllium chloride is also produced? g

25g of BeCl2 = 0.3128 mol of BeCl2

From the equation;

1 mol of H2 is produced alongside 1 mol of BeCl2

This means;

0.3128 mol of H2 would also be produced alongside 0.3128 mol of BeCl2

Mass = Number of moles * Molar mass

Mass = 0.3128mol * 2.0159 g/mol = 0.6306 g
