How many air molecules are in a 14.0×12.0×10.0 ft room? assume atmospheric pressure of 1.00 atm, a room temperature of 20.0 ∘c,

and ideal behavior. volume conversion:there are 28.2 liters in one cubic foot?

First, let's find the total volume of the room (and of the gas):
V=(14.0 ft\cdot 12.0 ft \cdot 10.0 ft)\cdot 28.0  \frac{L}{ft^3}=47040 L

Then we can use the ideal gas law to find the number of moles of the gas, n:
pV=nRT
where 
p= 1.00 atm is the pressure
V= 47040 L is the volume of the gas
n is the number of moles 
R=0.082 atm L K^{-1} mol^{-1} is the gas constant
T=20.0^{\circ}=293 K is the temperature

Using these data and re-arranging the formula, we find
n= \frac{pV}{RT}=1957.9 mol

Then we know that 1 mol of gas contains N_A = 6.022 \cdot 10^{23} molecules (Avogadro number), so the total number of molecules of the air in the problem is
N= n N_A = (1957.9 mol)(6.022 \cdot 10^{23} mol^{-1})=1.18 \cdot 10^{27} molecules.

There are <u>1.19.10²⁷ </u>air molecules in the room

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

In general, the gas equation can be written

\large {\boxed {\bold {PV = nRT}}}

where

P = pressure, atm, N / m²

V = volume, liter

n = number of moles

R = gas constant = 0.082 l.atm / mol K (P = atm, v = liter), or 8.314 J / mol K (P = Pa or N / m2, v = m³)

T = temperature, Kelvin

n = N / No

n = mole

No = Avogadro number (6.02.10²³)

n = m / m

m = mass

M = relative molecular mass

room volume: 14x12x10 = 1680 ft³

T = 20 °C = 20 +273 = 293 K

1 ft³ = 28.2 liters, then

1680 ft³ = 47376 liters

\rm n=\dfrac{PV}{RT}\\\\n=\dfrac{1\times 47376}{0.082\times 293}\\\\n=1971.864

\rm n=\dfrac{N}{No}\\\\N=1971.864\times 6.02.10^{23}\\\\N=1.19.10^{27}\:molecules

A student throws a rock upwards. The rock reaches a maximum height 2.4 seconds after it was released.
Allisa [31]

Answer:

23.52 m/s

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Time taken (t) to reach the maximum height = 2.4 s

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Initial velocity (u) =..?

At the maximum height, the final velocity (v) is zero. Thus, we can obtain how fast the rock (i.e initial velocity)

was thrown as follow:

v = u – gt (since the rock is going against gravity)

0 = u – (9.8 × 2.4)

0 = u – 23.52

Collect like terms

0 + 23.52 = u

u = 23.52 m/s

Therefore, the rock was thrown at a velocity of 23.52 m/s.
