The air pressure inside a submarine is 1.24 atm. What would be the height of a column of mercury (mm Hg) balanced by this pressu

Ipatiy [6.2K]

Since one atmosphere is 29.9213 inches of mercury, we can simply find this by taking 29.9213 and multiplying that by 1.24. You end up with 37.102412 inches of mercury. I hope this helps you out, and good luck on the rest of your homework.

The combustion reaction of isopropyl alcohol is given below: C 3 H 7 O H ( l ) + 9 2 O 2 ( g ) → 3 C O 2 ( g ) + 4 H 2 O ( g ) T

jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

the heat of formation of isopropyl alcohol is -317.82 kJ/mol

Explanation:

The heat of combustion of isopropyl alcohol is given as follows;

C₃H₇OH (l) +(9/2)O₂ → 3CO₂(g) + 4H₂O (g)

The heat of combustion of CO₂ and H₂O are given as follows

C (s) + O₂ (g) → CO₂(g) = −393.50 kJ

H₂ (g) + 1/2·O₂(g) → H₂O (l) = −285.83 kJ

Therefore we have

3CO₂(g) + 4H₂O (g) → C₃H₇OH (l) +(9/2)O₂ which we can write as

3C (s) + 3O₂ (g) → 3CO₂(g) = −393.50 kJ × 3 =

4H₂ (g) + 2·O₂(g) → 4H₂O (l) = −285.83 kJ × 4

3CO₂(g) + 4H₂O (g) → C₃H₇OH (l) +(9/2)O₂ = +2006 kJ/mol

-1180.5 - 1143.32 +2006 = -317.82 kJ/mol

Therefore, the heat of formation of isopropyl alcohol = -317.82 kJ/mol.

78.6 grams of O2 and 67.3 grams of F2 are placed in a container with a volume of 40.6 L. Find the total pressure if the gasses a

saul85 [17]

1) List the known and unknown quantities.

Sample: O2.

Mass: 78.6 g.

Volume: 40.6 L.

Temperature: 43.13 ºC = 316.28 K.

Sample: F2.

Mass: 67.3 g.

Volume: 40.6 L.

Temperature: 43.13 ºC = 316.28 K.

2) Find the pressure of O2.

2.1- List the known and unknown quantities.

Sample: O2.

Mass: 78.6 g.

Volume: 40.6 L.

Temperature: 43.13 ºC = 316.28 K

Ideal gas constant: 0.082057 L * atm * K^(-1) * mol^(-1).

2.2- Convert grams of O2 to moles of O2.

The molar mass of O2 is 31.9988 g/mol.

$mol\text{ }O_2=78.6\text{ }g*\frac{1\text{ }mol\text{ }O_2}{31.9988\text{ }g\text{ }O_2}=2.46\text{ }mol\text{ }O_2$

2.3- Set the equation.

Ideal gas constant: 0.082057 L * atm * K^(-1) * mol^(-1)

$PV=nRT$

2.4- Plug in the known quantities and solve for P.

$(P)(40.6\text{ }L)=(2.46\text{ }mol\text{ }O_2)(0.082057\text{ }L*atm*K^{-1}*mol^{-1})(316.28\text{ }K)$

.

$P_{O_2}=\frac{(2.46\text{ }mol\text{ }O_2)(0.082057\text{ }L*atm*K^{-1}*mol^{-1})(316.28\text{ }K)}{40.6\text{ }L}$ $P_{O_2}=1.57\text{ }atm$

The pressure of O2 is 1.57 atm.

3) Find the pressure of F2.

3.1- List the known and unknown quantities.

Sample: F2.

Mass: 67.3 g.

Volume: 40.6 L.

Temperature: 43.13 ºC = 316.28 K.

Ideal gas constant: 0.082057 L * atm * K^(-1) * mol^(-1).

3.2- Convert grams of F2 to moles of F2.

The mmolar mass of F2 is 37.9968 g/mol.

$mol\text{ }F_2=67.3\text{ }g\text{ }F_2*\frac{1\text{ }mol\text{ }F_2}{37.9968\text{ }g\text{ }F_2}=1.77\text{ }mol\text{ }F_2$

3.3- Set the equation.

Ideal gas constant: 0.082057 L * atm * K^(-1) * mol^(-1)

$PV=nRT$

3.4- Plug in the known quantities and solve for P.

$(P)(40.6\text{ }L)=(1.77\text{ }mol\text{ }F_2)(0.082057\text{ }L*atm*K^{-1}*mol^{-1})(316.28\text{ }K)$

.

$P_{F_2}=\frac{(1.77molF_2)(0.082057L*atm*K^{-1}*mol^{-1})(316.28K)}{40.6\text{ }L}$ $P_{F_2}=1.13\text{ }atm$

The pressure of F2 is 1.13 atm.

4) The total pressure.

Dalton's law - Partial pressure. This law states that the total pressure of a gas is equal to the sum of the individual partial pressures.

4.1- Set the equation.

$P_T=P_A+P_B$

4.2- Plug in the known quantities.

$P_T=1.57\text{ }atm+1.13\text{ }atm$ $P_T=2.7\text{ }atm$

The total pressure in the container is 2.7 atm.

sulfur (s) is in group 16 of the periodic table. how many valence electrons dos an atom of sulfur have?

Alex73 [517]

6 because the number of valence electrons is always the ones-place of any two-digit group number. So an element in group 18 would have 8 valence electrons
Hope this helps!
