<u>Answer:</u> The volume of oxygen gas is 91.4 L.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The number of moles is defined as the ratio of the mass of a substance to its molar mass. The equation used is:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}} ......(1)

Given mass of ethanol = 38.5 g

Molar mass of ethanol = 46 g/mol

Plugging values in equation 1:

\text{Moles of ethanol}=\frac{38.5g}{46g/mol}=0.840 mol

The given chemical equation follows:

CH_3CH_2OH(g)+3O_2(g)\rightarrow 2CO_2(g)+3H_2O(g)

By stoichiometry of the reaction:

If 1 mole of ethanol produces 3 moles of water

So, 0.840 moles of ethanol will produce = \frac{3}{1}\times 0.840=2.52mol of water

The ideal gas equation is given as:

PV=nRT .......(2)

where

P = pressure = 1.75 atm

V = volume of oxygen gas = ?

n = number of moles= 2.52 moles

R = Gas constant = 0.0821 L.atm/mol.K

T = temperature of the tank = 500^oC=[500+273]K=773K

Putting values in equation 2, we get:

1.75 atm\times V=2.52mol\times 0.0821L.atm/mol.K\times 773K\\\\V=\frac{2.52\times 0.0821\times 773}{1.75}=91.4L

Hence, the volume of oxygen gas is 91.4 L.

Answer:

90.99 or 91.0

Explanation:

Using the balanced equation, you convert 38.5g of ethanol to moles of water. From there, you plug the values into the Ideal Gas Equation: PV=nRT.

natali 33 [55]
The chemical reaction would be written as:

2HgO = 2Hg + O2

We use this reaction and the amount of the reactant to calculate for the moles of oxygen produced. THen, we use avogadro's number to convert it to molecules. We do as follows:

12.5 g HgO (1 mol / 216.59 g) (1 mol O2 / 2 mol HgO) ( 6.022x10^23 molecules O2 / 1 mol O2 ) = 1.74x10^22 molecules O2 produced

What is the mass of one mole of hydrogen molecules?
Lilit [14]

Answer:

2 grams

Explanation:

One MOLE of hydrogen atoms contains the same number of atoms as the number of hydrogen molecules in one MOLE of hydrogen molecules, i.e., Avagadros number. However, one mole of hydrogen atoms has a mass of 1 gram while one MOLE of hydrogen molecules has a mass of 2 grams.
