Answer:-

2328.454 grams

Explanation:-

Volume V = 18.4 litres

Temperature T = 15 C + 273 = 288 K

Pressure P = 1.5 x 10^ 3 KPa

We know universal Gas constant R = 8.314 L KPa K-1 mol-1

Using the relation PV = nRT

Number of moles of oxygen gas n = PV / RT

Plugging in the values

n = (1.5 x 10^3 KPa ) x ( 18.4 litres ) / ( 8.314 L KPa K-1 mol-1 x 288 K)

n = 11.527 mol

Now the balanced chemical equation for this reaction is

2KNO3 --> 2KNO2 + O2

From the equation we can see that

1 mol of O2 is produced from 2 mol of KNO3.

∴ 11.527 mol of O2 is produced from 2 x 11.527 mol of KNO3.

= 23.054 mol of KNO3

Molar mass of KNO3 = 39 x 1 + 14 x 1 + 16 x 3 = 101 grams / mol

Mass of KNO3 = 23.054 mol x 101 gram / mol

= 2328.454 grams

dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

1.1 × 10² g

Explanation:

First, we will convert 1.0 L to cubic centimeters.

1.0 L × (10³ mL/1 L) × (1 cm³/ 1 mL) = 1.0 × 10³ cm³

The density of water is 1.0 g/cm³. The mass corresponding to 1.0 × 10³ cm³ is:

1.0 × 10³ cm³ × (1.0 g/cm³) = 1.0 × 10³ g

1 mole of water (H₂O) has a mass of 18 g, consisting of 2 g of H and 16 g of O. The mass of Hydrogen in 1.0 × 10³ g of water is:

1.0 × 10³ g H₂O × (2 g H/18 g H₂O) = 1.1 × 10² g
