2.61 kilograms of water in a container have a pressure of 200 kPa and temperature of 200°C . What is the volume of this containe

Arisa [49]

<u>Answer:</u> The volume of the container is $2.8497m^3$

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the volume of water, we use the equation given by ideal gas, which is:

$PV=nRT$

or,

$PV=\frac{m}{M}RT$

where,

P = pressure of container = 200 kPa

V = volume of container = ? L

m = Given mass of water = 2.61 kg = 2610 g (Conversion factor: 1kg = 1000 g)

M = Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol

R = Gas constant = $8.31\text{L kPa }mol^{-1}K^{-1}$

T = temperature of container = $200^oC=[200+273]K=473K$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$200kPa\times V=\frac{2610g}{18g/mol}\times 8.31\text{L kPa }\times 473K\\\\V=2849.7L$

Converting this into cubic meter, we use the conversion factor:

$1m^3=1000L$

So, $\Rightarrow \frac{1m^3}{1000L}\times 2849.7L$

$\Rightarrow 2.8497m^3$

Hence, the volume of the container is $2.8497m^3$

A student has two samples of NaCl, each one from a different source. Assume that the only potential contaminant in each sample i

bija089 [108]

Answer:

The correct option is;

A. Which sample has the higher purity

Explanation:

The information given relate to the presence of two samples of NaCl, from different sources

The only potential contaminant in each of the sources = KCl

The content of the sample = NaCl

The molar mass of NaCl = 58.44 g/mol

The molar mass of KCl = 74.5513 g/mol

Let the number of moles of KCl in the sample = X

For a given mass of NaCl, KCl mixture, we have;

The molar mass of potassium = 39.0983 g/mol

The molar mass of chlorine = 35.453 g/mol

The molar mass of sodium ≈ 23 g/mol

Therefore;

Each mole of KCl, will yield 35.453 g/mol per 74.5513 g/mol of KCl

While each mole of NaCl will yield 35.453 g/mol per 58.44 g/mol of NaCl

Therefore, the pure sodium chloride sample will yield more chlorine per unit mass of sample.

As such if the two samples have the same mass, the sample with the contaminant of KCl will yield less mass of chlorine per unit mass of the sample, from which the student will be able to tell the purity of the solution.

The sample with the higher purity will yield a higher mass chlorine per unit mass of the sample.
