If a sample of air initially occupies 240L at 2 atm how much pressure is required to compress it to 20L at constant temperature

Chemistry

IceJOKER [234]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

24 atm.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial volume (V₁) = 240 L

Initial pressure (P₁) = 2 atm

Final volume (V₂) = 20 L

Temperature = constant

Final pressure (P₂) =?

The final pressure required, can be obtained by using the Boyle's law equation as shown below:

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

2 × 240 = P₂ × 20

480 = P₂ × 20

Divide both side by 20

P₂ = 480 / 20

P₂ = 24 atm

Thus, the final pressure required is 24 atm.

If 16.9 kg of Al2O3(s), 57.4 kg of NaOH(l), and 57.4 kg of HF(g) react completely, how many kilograms of cryolite will be produc
hodyreva [135]

Answer: 69.72 kg of cryolite will be produced.

Explanation:

The balanced chemical equation is:

Al_2O_3(s)+6NaOH(l)+12HF(g)\rightarrow 2Na_3AlF_6+9H_2O

To calculate the moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text {Molar mass}}

moles of Al_2O_3 = \frac{16.9\times 1000g}{102g/mol}=165.7moles

moles of NaOH = \frac{57.4\times 1000g}{40g/mol}=1435moles

moles of HF = \frac{57.4\times 1000g}{20g/mol}=2870moles

As 1 mole of Al_2O_3 reacts with 6 moles of NaOH

166 moles of  Al_2O_3 reacts with = \frac{6}{1}\times 166=996 moles of NaOH

As 1 mole of Al_2O_3 reacts with 12 moles of HF

166 moles of  Al_2O_3 reacts with = \frac{12}{1}\times 166=1992 moles of HF

Thus Al_2O_3 is the limiting reagent.

As 1 mole of Al_2O_3 produces = 2 moles of cryolite

166 moles of  Al_2O_3 reacts with = \frac{2}{1}\times 166=332 moles of cryolite

Mass of cryolite (Na_3AlF_6) = moles\times {\text {molar mass}}=332mol\times 210g/mol=69720g=69.72kg

Thus 69.72 kg of cryolite will be produced.
