Answer:

The mass of the helium gas is 42 grams

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Volume of the balloon = 2.4 *10^2 L = 240 L

Temperature = 0°C = 273 K

Pressure = 99 kPa = 0.977054 atm

Molar mass He2 = 4.0 g/mol

Step 2: Calculate moles He

p*V = n*R*T

⇒with p = the pressure = 0.977054 atm

⇒with V = the volume = 240 L

⇒with n = the number of moles = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒with R = the gas constant = 0.08206 L*atm/mol*K

⇒with T = the temperature = 273 K

n = (p*V) / (R*T)

n = (0.977054 * 240 ) / (0.08206 * 273)

n = 10.467 moles

Step 3: Calculate mass of Helium

Mass He = Moles He * molar mass He

Mass He = 10.467 moles * 4.0 g/mol

Mass He = 42 grams

The mass of the helium gas is 42 grams

NOTE: The noble gases (helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon, and radon) are gases at STP and are monatomic

Answer:

The answer to your question is 8.74 g of He

Explanation:

Data

V = 2.4 x 10² L

P = 99 kPa

T = 0°C

mass = ?

Process

1.- Convert kPa to atm

P = 99 kPa = 99000 Pa

                   1 atm --------------- 101325 Pa

                    x       ---------------   99000 Pa

                   x = (99000 x 1) / 101325

                   x = 0.977 atm

2.- Convert temperature to °K

°K = 273 + 0

°K = 273

3.- Substitution

      PV = nRT

- Solve for n

      n = PV / RT

      n = (0.977)(2.4 x 10²) / (0.082)(273)

      n = 24.48 / 22.386

      n = 1.093 moles

4.- Calculate the grams of He

          8 g -------------------- 1 mol

           x    -------------------- 1.093 moles

           x = (1.093 x 8) / 1

           x = 8.74 g

Based on the information in the table, which of the following arranges the bonds in order of decreasing polarity?
patriot [66]

Polarity is the chemical property based on the electric charge and orientation of the poles. Al−O>H−Br>As−S is arranged in decreasing order of polarity. Thus, option d is correct.

<h3>What is polarity?</h3>

Polarity is a chemical property of the distribution of the electrical charges over their respective atom in the molecule joined by the bonds. The relation between the polarity and the difference in electronegativity is directly proportional.

The electronegativity difference between the elements are:

  • Al−O = 1.8
  • H−Br = 0.8
  • As−S = 0.4

As the electronegativity difference between Al−O = 1.8 is the highest it will have the highest polarity followed by H−Br = 0.8, and As−S = 0.4, with the lowest polarity.

Therefore, option D. Al−O>H−Br>As−S is arranged in decreasing order of polarity.
