I have 2 samples of solid chalk (aka calcium carbonate). Sample A has a total mass of 4.12 g and Sample B has a total mass of 19

.37 g. What is the difference between the samples?
A) Sample B has more calcium carbonate molecules
B) Sample B has a larger ratio of carbon, oxygen, and calcium atoms
C) Sample B has more calcium ion than carbonate ions
D) Sample B must have some impurity

Answer:

A) Sample B has more calcium carbonate molecules

Explanation:

M = Molar mass of calcium carbonate = 100.0869 g/mol

N_A = Avogadro's number = 6.022\times 10^{23}\ \text{mol}^{-1}

For the 4.12 g sample

Moles of a substance is given by

n=\dfrac{m}{M}\\\Rightarrow n=\dfrac{4.12}{100.0869}\\\Rightarrow n=0.0411\ \text{mol}

Number of molecules is given by

nN_A=0.0411\times 6.022\times 10^{23}=2.48\times 10^{22}\ \text{molecules}

For the 19.37 g sample

n=\dfrac{19.37}{100.0869}\\\Rightarrow n=0.193\ \text{mol}

Number of molecules is given by

nN_A=0.193\times 6.022\times 10^{23}=1.16\times 10^{23}\ \text{molecules}

1.16\times 10^{23}\ \text{molecules}>2.48\times 10^{22}\ \text{molecules}

So, sample B has more calcium carbonate molecules.

The ratio of the elements of carbon, oxygen, calcium atoms, ions, has to be same in both the samples otherwise the samples cannot be considered as calcium carbonate. Same is applicable for impurities. If there are impurites then the sample cannot be considered as calcium carbonate.

If 0.0106 g of a gas dissolves in 0.792 L of water at 0.321 atm, what quantity of this gas (in grams) will dissolve at 5.73 atm?
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

0.189 g.

Explanation:

  • This problem is an application on <em>Henry's law.</em>
  • Henry's law states that the solubility of a gas in a liquid is directly proportional to its partial pressure of the gas above the liquid.
  • Solubility of the gas ∝ partial pressure
  • If we have different solubility at different pressures, we can express Henry's law as:

<em>S₁/P₁ = S₂/P₂,</em>

S₁ = 0.0106/0.792 = 0.0134 g/L and P₁ = 0.321 atm

S₂ = ??? g/L and P₂ = 5.73 atm

  • So, The solubility of the gas at 5.73 atm (S₂) = S₁.P₂/P₁ = (0.0134 g/L x 5.73 atm) / (0.321 atm) = 0.239 g/L.

<em>The quantity in (g) = S₂ x V = (0.239 g/L)(0.792 L) = 0.189 g.</em>
