Early in the 20th century scientists realised that all matter is made up of atoms. As a result of an experiment carried out by his assistants, Hans Geiger and Ernest Marsden, Ernest Rutherford suggested a model for the atom. The experiment is known as Rutherford's alpha particle scattering experiment.

.400 moles of CO2 gas are confined in a 5.00-liter container at 25 °C. Calculate the pressure exerted in atmospheres and mm Hg.
solong [7]

The pressure exerted by 0.400 moles of carbon dioxide in a 5.00 Liter container at 25 °C would be 1.9563 atm or  1486.788 mm Hg.

<h3>The ideal gas law</h3>

According to the ideal gas law, the product of the pressure and volume of a gas is a constant.

This can be mathematically expressed as:

pv = nRT

Where:

p = pressure of the gas

v = volume

n = number of moles

R = Rydberg constant (0.08206 L•atm•mol-1K)

T = temperature.

In this case:

p is what we are looking for.

v = 5.00 L

n = 0.400 moles

T = 25 + 273

 = 298 K

Now, let's make p the subject of the formula of the equation.

p = nRT/v

  = 0.400 x 0.08206 x 298/5

  = 1.9563 atm

Recall that: 1 atm = 760 mm Hg

Thus:

1.9563 atm = 1.9563 x 760 mm Hg

                   = 1486.788 mm Hg

In other words, the pressure exerted by the gas in atm is 1.9563 atm and in mm HG is 1486.788 mm Hg.

4.00 moles of CU(CN)2<br><br>Find the number of grams ​
UNO [17]

Hey there!

Cu(CN)₂

Find the molar mass.

Cu: 1 x 63.546 = 63.546

C: 2 x 12.01 = 24.02

N: 2 x 14.07 = 28.14

-----------------------------------

                      115.706 grams

The mass of one mole of Cu(CN)₂ is 115.706 grams.

We have 4 moles.

115.706 x 4 = 463

4.00 moles of Cu(CN)₂ has a mass of 463 grams.

Hope this helps!
