Answer:

547 L of water vapour

Explanation:

Equation of reaction: 2[CaSO4.2H20] + Heat ---> 2[CaSO4.½H2O] + 3H20

From the equation of reaction above, 2 moles of gypsum when heated produces 2 moles of plaster of Paris and 3 moles of water vapour.

Molar mass of gypsum = 172 g/mol

Molar mass of H2O = 18 g/mol

Therefore, 2 * 172 g of gypsum produces 3 * 18 g of water vapour

i.e. 344 g of gypsum produces 54 g of H2O

2 Kg(2000 g) of gypsum will produce (54 * 2000)/344 g of water vapour = 313.95 of water vapour.

Volume of water vapour produced = mass/density

Volume of water vapour = 313.95 g/ 0.574 g/L = 547 L of water vapour

Therefore 547 L of water vapour are produced

Nata [24]

Answer:

1425 mmHg.

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Initial volume (V1) = 1.5 L

Initial pressure (P1) = 1 atm

Final volume (V2) = 0.8 L

Final pressure (P2) =?

Next, we shall determine the final pressure of the gas by using the Boyle's law equation as follow:

P1V1 = P2V2

1 × 1.5 = P2 × 0.8

1.5 = P2 × 0.8

Divide both side by 0.8

P2 = 1.5/0.8

P2 = 1.875 atm

Finally, we shall convert 1.875 atm to mmHg.

This can be obtained as follow:

1 atm = 760 mmHg

Therefore,

1.875 atm = 1.875 × 760 = 1425 mmHg.

Therefore, the new pressure of the gas is 1425 mmHg.
