Answer:

p_{H_2O}=2.00atm

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, according to the following chemical reaction:

2H_2+O_2\rightarrow 2H_2O

It means that we need to compute the moles of hydrogen and oxygen that are reacting, via the ideal gas equation as we know the volume, pressure and temperature:

n_{H_2}=\frac{3.00atm*1.00L}{0.08206\frac{atm*L}{mol*K}*400K}=0.0914molH_2 \\\\n_{O_2}=\frac{1.00atm*1.00L}{0.08206\frac{atm*L}{mol*K}*400K}=0.0305molH_2

Thus, the yielded moles of water are computed by firstly identifying the limiting reactant:

n_{H_2O}^{by\ H_2} = 0.0914molH_2*\frac{2molH_2O}{2molH_2} =0.0914molH_2O\\\\n_{H_2O}^{by\ O_2} = 0.0305molO_2*\frac{2molH_2O}{1molO_2} =0.0609molH_2O

Thus, the fewest moles of water are 0.0609 mol so the limiting reactant is oxygen; in such a way, by using the ideal gas equation once again, we compute the pressure of water:

p_{H_2O}=\frac{0.0609molH_2O*0.08206\frac{atm*L}{mol*K}*400K}{1.00L}\\\\ p_{H_2O}=2.00atm

Best regards!

r-ruslan [8.4K]

Increased temperature causes an increase in kinetic energy. The higher kinetic energy causes more motion in the gas molecules which break intermolecular bonds and escape from solution.

What happens when a gamma ray is emitted from nucleus of an atom
Masja [62]

Answer:

The emission of gamma rays does not alter the number of protons or neutrons in the nucleus but instead has the effect of moving the nucleus from a higher to a lower energy state (unstable to stable). Gamma ray emission frequently follows beta decay, alpha decay, and other nuclear
