Hydrogen gas explosive within range of 4%-75% v/v. Assuming that each student in your class produces 6 L of H2 and that the lab
SpyIntel [72]
To determine whether the amount of H2 in the lab is dangerous, we first need to know how much hydrogen gas is present in the room in units of percent by volume. For this particular problem, we cannot exactly determine since we do not know the total volume of the room. Hope this answers the question.

How is it possible for there to be more than one kind of atom of the same element?
tiny-mole [99]

They are called isotopes.

Isotopes have the same number of electrons and protons in their unionized state. They differ in the number of neutrons. The first and simplest example is hydrogen.


The most common hydrogen has

1 proton

1 electron and

0 neutrons


It has 2 cousins

1 proton

1 electron

1 neutron

And

1 proton

1 electron

2 neutrons.


Most elements have some differences in the number of neutrons present in their nuclei. Cesium and Xenon have the most number of isotopes. Each has 36. You wonder how the atoms are held together.

If an ideal gas has a pressure of 4.03 atm,
kkurt [141]

Answer:

PV=nRT where P=pressure in atm, V=volume is liters, n=numbber of moles, R=gas constant, 0.08206 L-atm/mole KL, and T=temperature in K (273 + C).  So (5.67atm)(99.39L)=n(0.08206 L-atm/mol.K)(328.94K), solve for n, the number of moles, n=20.9 moles.
