Answer:

Mass = 1.33 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of argon required = ?

Volume of bulb = 0.745 L

Temperature and pressure = standard

Solution:

We will calculate the number of moles of argon first.

Formula:

PV = nRT

R = general gas constant = 0.0821 atm.L/mol.K

By putting values,

1 atm ×0.745 L = n × 0.0821 atm.L/mol.K× 273.15 K

0.745 atm. L = n × 22.43 atm.L/mol

n = 0.745 atm. L / 22.43 atm.L/mol

n = 0.0332 mol

Mass of argon:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.0332 mol × 39.95 g/mol

Mass = 1.33 g

Calculate the activity coefficients for the following conditions:

uysha [10]

Answer:

For a: The activity coefficient of copper ions is 0.676

For b: The activity coefficient of potassium ions is 0.851

For c: The activity coefficient of potassium ions is 0.794

Explanation:

To calculate the activity coefficient of an ion, we use the equation given by Debye and Huckel, which is:

$-\log\gamma_i=\frac{0.51\times Z_i^2\times \sqrt{\mu}}{1+(3.3\times \alpha _i\times \sqrt{\mu})}$ ........(1)

where,

$\gamma_i$ = activity coefficient of ion

$Z_i$ = charge of the ion

$\mu$ = ionic strength of solution

$\alpha _i$ = diameter of the ion in nm

To calculate the ionic strength, we use the equation:

$\mu=\frac{1}{2}\sum_{i=1}^n(C_iZ_i^2)$ ......(2)

where,

$C_i$ = concentration of i-th ions

$Z_i$ = charge of i-th ions

For a:

We are given:

0.01 M NaCl solution:

Calculating the ionic strength by using equation 2:

$C_{Na^+}=0.01M\\Z_{Na^+}=+1\\C_{Cl^-}=0.01M\\Z_{Cl^-}=-1$

Putting values in equation 2, we get:

$\mu=\frac{1}{2}[(0.01\times (+1)^2)+(0.01\times (-1)^2)]\\\\\mu=0.01M$

Now, calculating the activity coefficient of $Cu^{2+}$ ion in the solution by using equation 1:

$Z_{Cu^{2+}}=2+\\\alpha_{Cu^{2+}}=0.6\text{ (known)}\\\mu=0.01M$

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$-\log\gamma_{Cu^{2+}}=\frac{0.51\times (+2)^2\times \sqrt{0.01}}{1+(3.3\times 0.6\times \sqrt{0.01})}\\\\-\log\gamma_{Cu^{2+}}=0.17\\\\\gamma_{Cu^{2+}}=10^{-0.17}\\\\\gamma_{Cu^{2+}}=0.676$

Hence, the activity coefficient of copper ions is 0.676

For b:

We are given:

0.025 M HCl solution:

Calculating the ionic strength by using equation 2:

$C_{H^+}=0.025M\\Z_{H^+}=+1\\C_{Cl^-}=0.025M\\Z_{Cl^-}=-1$

Putting values in equation 2, we get:

$\mu=\frac{1}{2}[(0.025\times (+1)^2)+(0.025\times (-1)^2)]\\\\\mu=0.025M$

Now, calculating the activity coefficient of $K^{+}$ ion in the solution by using equation 1:

$Z_{K^{+}}=+1\\\alpha_{K^{+}}=0.3\text{ (known)}\\\mu=0.025M$

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$-\log\gamma_{K^{+}}=\frac{0.51\times (+1)^2\times \sqrt{0.025}}{1+(3.3\times 0.3\times \sqrt{0.025})}\\\\-\log\gamma_{K^{+}}=0.070\\\\\gamma_{K^{+}}=10^{-0.070}\\\\\gamma_{K^{+}}=0.851$

Hence, the activity coefficient of potassium ions is 0.851

For c:

We are given:

0.02 M $K_2SO_4$ solution:

Calculating the ionic strength by using equation 2:

$C_{K^+}=(2\times 0.02)=0.04M\\Z_{K^+}=+1\\C_{SO_4^{2-}}=0.02M\\Z_{SO_4^{2-}}=-2$

Putting values in equation 2, we get:

$\mu=\frac{1}{2}[(0.04\times (+1)^2)+(0.02\times (-2)^2)]\\\\\mu=0.06M$

Now, calculating the activity coefficient of $K^{+}$ ion in the solution by using equation 1:

$Z_{K^{+}}=+1\\\alpha_{K^{+}}=0.3\text{ (known)}\\\mu=0.06M$

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$-\log\gamma_{K^{+}}=\frac{0.51\times (+1)^2\times \sqrt{0.06}}{1+(3.3\times 0.3\times \sqrt{0.06})}\\\\-\log\gamma_{K^{+}}=0.1\\\\\gamma_{K^{+}}=10^{-0.1}\\\\\gamma_{K^{+}}=0.794$

Hence, the activity coefficient of potassium ions is 0.794

What volume would 0.735 moles of O2 gas occupy at STP

tatiyna

Answer:

16.5 dm³

Explanation:

Data Given:

no. moles of O₂ = 0.735 moles

volume of O₂ = ?

Solution:

Now

we have to find volume of O₂ gas

Formula used for this purpose

No. of moles = Volume / molar volume

where

molar volume at STP for Oxygen (O₂) = 22.4 dm³/mol

No. of moles O₂ = Volume of O₂ / 22.4 dm³/mol . . . . . .(1)

Put values in equation 1

0.735 = Volume of O₂ / 22.4 dm³/ mol

rearrange above equation

Volume of O₂ = 0.735 x 22.4 dm³/ mol

Volume of O₂ = 16.5 dm³

So,

the volume of O₂ at STP is 16.5 dm³
