Answer:

The mass of oxygen gas required to produce 65.75 grams of steam is approximately 162.2 grams

Explanation:

From the question, we have the following chemical reaction equation;

2C₃H₁₈(l) + 25O₂ (g) → 16CO₂(g) + 18H₂O (g)

The molar mass of oxygen, O₂ = 32 g/mol

The molar mass of steam, H₂O = 18.01528 g/mol

25 moles of oxygen are required to produce 18 moles of steam

Therefore, according to Proust's law of definite proportions;

(32 × 25) g of oxygen are required to produce (18 × 18.01528) g of steam

65.75 g of steam will be produced by (32 × 25)/(18 × 18.01528) × 65.75 g ≈ 162.2 g of oxygen O₂.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

Helium is a noble gas. The interaction between two helium molecules is rather weak, which makes the gas rather "ideal."

Consider the ideal gas law:

$P\cdot V = n\cdot R\cdot T$ ,

where

$P$ is the pressure of the gas,
$V$ is the volume of the gas,
$n$ is the number of gas particles in the gas,
$R$ is the ideal gas constant, and
$T$ is the absolute temperature of the gas in degrees Kelvins.

The question is asking for the final volume $V$ of the gas. Rearrange the ideal gas equation for volume:

$V = \dfrac{n \cdot R \cdot T}{P}$ .

Both the temperature of the gas, $T$ , and the pressure on the gas changed in this process. To find the new volume of the gas, change one variable at a time.

Start with the absolute temperature of the gas:

$T_0 = (32.0 + 273.15) \;\text{K} = 305.15\;\text{K}$ ,
$T_1 = (-14.5 + 273.15) \;\text{K} = 258.65\;\text{K}$ .

The volume of the gas is proportional to its temperature if both $n$ and $P$ stay constant.

$n$ won't change unless the balloon leaks, and
consider $P$ to be constant, for calculations that include $T$ .

$V_1 = V_0 \cdot \dfrac{T_1}{T_2} = 5.57\times 10^{4}\;\text{L}\times \dfrac{258.65\;\textbf{K}}{305.15\;\textbf{K}} = 4.72122\times 10^{4}\;\text{L}$ .

Now, keep the temperature at $T_1 =258.65\;\text{K}$ and change the pressure on the gas:

$P_1 = 0.995\;\text{atm}$ ,
$P_2 = 0.720\;\text{atm}$ .

The volume of the gas is proportional to the reciprocal of its absolute temperature $\dfrac{1}{T}$ if both $n$ and $T$ stays constant. In other words,

$V_2 = V_1 \cdot\dfrac{\dfrac{1}{P_2}}{\dfrac{1}{P_1}} = V_1\cdot\dfrac{P_1}{P_2} = 4.72122\times 10^{4}\;\text{L}\times\dfrac{0.995\;\text{atm}}{0.720\;\text{atm}}=6.52\times 10^{4}\;\text{L}$

(3 sig. fig. as in the question.).

See if you get the same result if you hold $T$ constant, change $P$ , and then move on to change $T$ .

Eva8 [605]

Answer: 10.62g

Explanation:

First let us generate a balanced equation for the reaction.

HCl + NaOH —> NaCl + H2O

Molar Mass of HCl= 1 + 35.5 = 36.5g/mol

Molar Mass of NaOH = 23 + 16 + 1 = 40g/mol

From the question,

Mass of HCl = 17g

Mass of NaOH = 6.99g

Converting these Masses to mole, we obtain:

n = Mass / Molar Mass

n of HCl = 17/36.5 = 0.4658mol

n of NaOH = 6.99/40 = 0.1748mol

From the question,

1 mole of NaOH requires 1mole of HCl.

Therefore, 0.1748mol of NaOH will also require 0.1748mol of HCl.

But we were told that 17g( i.e 0.4658mol) of HCl were mixed.

Therefore, the unreacted amount of HCl = 0.4658 — 0.1748 = 0.291mol

Converting this to mass, we have:

Mass of HCl = n x molar Mass

Mass of HCl = 0.291 x 36.5

Mass of HCl = 10.62g

Therefore the left over Mass of HCl is 10.62g

Solution A and solution B are separated by a semipermeable membrane. Solution A contains 1% glucose, solution B contains 5% gluc

Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

Glucose will move from the solution B to the solution A

Explanation:

Given that:

Solution A contains 1% glucose, and,

Solution B contains 5% glucose

Diffusion is the net movement of the substance from the region of the higher concentration to the region of the lower concentration.

Thus, solution B contains more concentration of glucose as compared to solution A. <u>By the process of diffusion, the particle moves from higher concentration to lower concentration and thus, glucose will move from solution B to solution A.</u>
