A gas has a volume of 62.65L at O degrees Celsius and 1 atm. At what temperature in Celsius would the volume of the gas be 78.31

Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

The volume of the gas will be 78.31 L at 1.7 °C.

Explanation:

We can find the temperature of the gas by the ideal gas law equation:

$PV = nRT$

Where:

n: is the number of moles

V: is the volume

T: is the temperature

R: is the gas constant = 0.082 L*atm/(K*mol)

From the initial we can find the number of moles:

$n = \frac{P_{1}V_{1}}{RT_{1}} = \frac{1 atm*62.65 L}{(0.082 L*atm/K*mol)*(0 + 273)K} = 2.80 moles$

Now, we can find the temperature with the final conditions:

$T_{2} = \frac{P_{2}V_{2}}{nR} = \frac{612.0 mmHg*\frac{1 atm}{760 mmHg}*78.31 L}{2.80 moles*0.082 L*atm/(K*mol)} = 274.7 K$

The temperature in Celsius is:

$T_{2} = 274.7 - 273 = 1.7 ^{\circ} C$

Therefore, the volume of the gas will be 78.31 L at 1.7 °C.

I hope it helps you!

Suppose that you add 26.7 g of an unknown molecular compound to 0.250 kg of benzene, which has a K f Kf of 5.12 oC/m. With the a

kiruha [24]

From the calculation, the molar mass of the solution is 141 g/mol.

<h3>What is the molar mass?</h3>

We know that;

ΔT = K m i

K = the freezing constant

m = molality of the solution

i = the Van't Hoft factor

The molality of the solution is obtained from;

m = ΔT/K i

m = 3.89/5.12 * 1

m = 0.76 m

Now;

0.76 = 26.7 /MM/0.250

0.76 = 26.7 /0.250MM

0.76 * 0.250MM = 26.7

MM= 26.7/0.76 * 0.250

MM = 141 g/mol

Please help with chemistry question... It would help me tremendously and if you can, please show work :)?

Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

5.06 atm

Explanation:

Step 1:

Data obtained from the question. This includes:

Mass of S2O = 175g

Volume (V) = 16600 mL

Temperature (T) = 195°C

Pressure (P)

Step 2:

Determination of the number of mole of S2O in 175g of S2O.

Mass of S2O = 175g

Molar Mass of S2O = (32x2) + 16 = 64 + 16 = 80g/mol

Number of mole of S2O =.?

Number of mole = Mass/Molar Mass

Number of mole of S2O = 175/80

Number of mole of S2O = 2.1875 moles

Step 3:

Conversion to appropriate units.

It is essential to always express the various variables in the right units of measurement in order to obtain the desired answer in the right units.

For volume:

1000mL = 1L

Therefore, 16600mL = 16600/1000 = 16.6L

For temperature:

Temperature (Kelvin) = temperature (celsius) + 273

Temperature (celsius) = 195°C

Temperature (Kelvin) = 195°C + 273 = 468K

Step 4:

Determination of the pressure.

The pressure can be obtained by the application of the ideal gas equation. This is illustrated below:

Volume (V) = 16.6L

Temperature (T) = 468K

Number of mole (n) = 2.1875 moles

Gas constant (R) = 0.082atm.L/Kmol

Pressure (P) =

PV = nRT

P x 16.6 = 2.1875 x 0.082 x 468

Divide both side by 16.6

P = (2.1875 x 0.082 x 468) /16.6

P = 5.06 atm

Therefore, the pressure is 5.06 atm

Which of the following has the smallest atomic radius: Mg2+, Mg, Ca2+, or Ca?

oksano4ka [1.4K]

The appropriate response is Mg2+. It has the smallest radius the would mean the littlest separation from it's the furthest shell to the core
Since magnesium has one less shell that calcium, Mg would have a little nuclear range. Besides, a particle of a component will have a little nuclear sweep than it's molecule be utilized as a part of its particle frame it has lost a shell
