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

The energy from 0.015 moles of octane was used to heat 250 grams of water. The temperature of the water rose from 293.0 K to 371
arsen [322]

Answer : The correct option is, (B) -5448 kJ/mol

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the heat required by water.

q=m\times c\times (T_2-T_1)

where,

q = heat required by water = ?

m = mass of water = 250 g

c = specific heat capacity of water = 4.18J/g.K

T_1 = initial temperature of water = 293.0 K

T_2 = final temperature of water = 371.2 K

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

q=250g\times 4.18J/g.K\times (371.2-293.0)K

q=81719J

Now we have to calculate the enthalpy of combustion of octane.

\Delta H=\frac{q}{n}

where,

\Delta H = enthalpy of combustion of octane = ?

q = heat released = -81719 J

n = moles of octane = 0.015 moles

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

\Delta H=\frac{-81719J}{0.015mole}

\Delta H=-5447933.333J/mol=-5447.9kJ/mol\approx -5448kJ/mol

Therefore, the enthalpy of combustion of octane is -5448 kJ/mol.

What cause the death of stars?​
fenix001 [56]

Most stars take millions of years to die. When a star like the Sun has burned all of its hydrogen fuel, it expands to become a red giant then when it fully runs out it then dies

There is a 3-kg toy cart moving at 4 m/s. Calculate the kinetic<br> energy of the cart.
m_a_m_a [10]

The kinetic energy of the cart is 24 J.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The acceleration of a given mass from rest to the velocity is known as kinetic energy. It gains energy from acceleration and remains in this state until the speed of the object changes.  

The kinetic energy is the given by,

                           K.E = 1/2 mv^2

Given the mass m = 3 kg,        v = 4 m / s.

                            K.E = 1/2 \times 3 \times (4)^2          

                          K.E  = 24 J.

In 10 seconds a car accelerates 4/ms to 60m/s. how fast was the car going before it accelerated?
SVETLANKA909090 [29]
Well it seems like this problem gives you what you need.  You said the car was going 4m/s and then accelerated to 60m/s... so 4m/s would be your answer for the initial velocity
