Calculate the volume of 0.684mol of carbon dioxide at s.t.p. show working
solong [7]

Answer: The volume of 0.684 mol of carbon dioxide at s.t.p. is 15.3 L

Explanation:

According to ideal gas equation:

PV=nRT

P = pressure of gas = 1 atm (at STP)

V = Volume of gas = ?

n = number of moles = 0.684

R = gas constant = 0.0821Latm/Kmol

T =temperature =273K   (at STP)

V=\frac{nRT}{P}

V=\frac{0.684\times 0.0821L atm/K mol\times 273K}{1atm}

V=15.3L

Thus the volume of 0.684 mol of carbon dioxide at s.t.p. is 15.3 L

What does it mean to standardize the naoh solution why can the molarity of the naoh solution not be determined accurately?
ruslelena [56]
A standard solution is a solution (in this case sodium hydroxide) whose concentration (molarity) is known very precisely. <span>The molarity of the sodium hydroxide solution cannot be determined accurately because s</span>olid sodium hydroxide is highly hygroscopic (absorbs water from the air) and cannot be accurately weighed. Sodium hydroxide form sodium carbonate because it absorbs carbon dioxide from the air.

Please explain, I don't understand.
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

7. A) I, II ; 8. D) 2.34e9 kJ

Step-by-step explanation:

7. Combustion of ethanol

I. The negative sign for ΔH shows that the reaction is exothermic.

II. The enthalpy change would be different if gaseous water were produced.

That's because it takes energy to convert liquid water to gaseous water, and this energy is included in the value of ΔH.

III. The reaction is a redox reaction, because

  • Oxygen is reacting with a compound
  • The oxidation number of C increases
  • The oxidation number of O decreases.

IV. The products of the reaction occupy a smaller volume than the reactants, because 3 mol of gaseous reactant are forming 2 mol of gaseous product.

Therefore, only I and II are correct.

7. Hindenburg

Data:

  V = 2.00 × 10⁸ L

  p = 1.00 atm

  T = 25.1 °C

ΔH = -286 kJ·mol⁻¹

Calculations:

(a) Convert temperature to kelvins

T = (25.1 + 273.15) K = 298.25 K

(b) Moles of hydrogen

Use the <em>Ideal Gas Law</em>:

pV = nRT

n = (pV)/(RT)

n = (1.00 × 2.00 × 10⁸)/(0.082 06 × 298.25) = 8.172 × 10⁶ mol

(c) Heat evolved

q = nΔH = 8.172 × 10⁶ × (-286) = -2.34 × 10⁹ kJ

The hydrogen in the Hindenburg released 2.34e9 kJ .
