Answer:
Methane
Explanation:
The gas that you could keep in an outdoor storage tank in winter in Alaska is Methane.
The reason is the extreme low temperature during the winter. The boiling point of butane is 44 ºF ( -1ºC) and that of propane is a higher -43.6 º F but still within the range of average minimum winter temperature in Alaska (-50 ªF). Therefore we will have condensation in the tanks and not enough gas pressure.
Methane having a boling point of -259 ºF will not condense at the low wintertime temperatures in Alaska.
Answer:
IO₂
Explanation:
We have been given the mass percentages of the elements that makes up the compound:
Mass percentage given are:
Iodine = 79.86%
Oxygen = 20.14%
To calculate the empirical formula which is the simplest formula of the compound, we follow these steps:
> Express the mass percentages as the mass of the elements of the compound.
> Find the number of moles by dividing through by the atomic masses
> Divide by the smallest and either approximate to nearest whole number or multiply through by a factor.
> The ratio is the empirical formula of the compound.
Solution:
I O
% of elements 79.86 20.14
Mass (in g) 79.86 20.14
Moles(divide by
Atomic mass) 79.86/127 20.14/16
Moles 0.634 1.259
Dividing by
Smallest 0.634/0.634 1.259/0.634
1 2
The empirical formula is IO₂
Answer : The concentration of HI (g) at equilibrium is, 0.643 M
Explanation :
The given chemical reaction is:
Initial conc. 0.10 0.10 0.50
At eqm. (0.10-x) (0.10-x) (0.50+2x)
As we are given:
The expression for equilibrium constant is:
![K_c=\frac{[HI]^2}{[H_2][I_2]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=K_c%3D%5Cfrac%7B%5BHI%5D%5E2%7D%7B%5BH_2%5D%5BI_2%5D%7D)
Now put all the given values in this expression, we get:
x = 0.0713 and x = 0.134
We are neglecting value of x = 0.134 because the equilibrium concentration can not be more than initial concentration.
Thus, we are taking value of x = 0.0713
The concentration of HI (g) at equilibrium = (0.50+2x) = [0.50+2(0.0713)] = 0.643 M
Thus, the concentration of HI (g) at equilibrium is, 0.643 M
