How many moles are in 12 liters of Cl2?

Chemistry

RoseWind [281]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 0.54 \ mol \ Cl_2}}

Explanation:

A mole is any quantity of a substance that contains 6.02 × 10²³ particles. At standard temperature and pressure, or STP, 1 mole of as is equal to 22.4 liters. This is true for any gas, regardless of the specific kind.

Although it is not specified, we can assume this gas is at STP. Let's set up a ratio using this information: 22.4 L/mol

\frac {22.4 \ L \ Cl_2}{1 \ mol \ Cl_2}

Multiply by the given number of liters: 12

12 \ L \ Cl_2 *\frac {22.4 \ L \ Cl_2}{1 \ mol \ Cl_2}

Flip the ratio so the liters of chlorine cancel.

12 \ L \ Cl_2 * \frac {1 \ mol \ Cl_2}{22.4 \ L \ Cl_2}

12  * \frac {1 \ mol \ Cl_2}{22.4 }

\frac {12}{22.4 }  \ mol \ Cl_2

0.53571428571 \ mol \ Cl_2

The original measurement of liters has 2 significant figures, so our answer must have the same.

For the number we found, that is the hundredth place.

  • 0.53<u>5</u>71428571

The 5 in the thousandth place tells us to round the 3 up to a 4.

0.54 \ mol \ Cl_2

12 liters of chlorine gas at STP is approximately <u>0.54 moles of chlorine gas.</u>

Identify whether each reaction represents a chemical reaction or a nuclear reaction by filling in the blank with the word ‘chemi
valkas [14]
A chemical reaction is defined as the reaction between two or more substances that produces new substances/compounds.

On the other hand, a nuclear reaction is a reaction that alters the nucleus of a certain atom. This can be done either by splitting the nucleus or by joining this nucleus with another one.

Reaction 1:
Cl₂ + H₂ ............> 2 HCl
This is the combination of two elements to produce a new compound.
Therefore, this reaction is a chemical reaction

Reaction 2:
²₁H + ³₁H .........> ⁴₂H + ¹₀n
This is an alteration in the nucleus of a hydrogen atom by bonding it with another nucleus.
Therefore, this reaction is a nuclear reaction

Hope this helps :)

Why do reactivity increases on moving from top to bottom in group 2 of modern periodic table?
Nikolay [14]

Answer:

that's because....

group 1 (e.g Na, K) those tend to lose one electron to gain noble gas electron configuration.

they can achieve that by just losing one electron from their outer shell.

as you go down the group 1, element gets bigger in size, which means there is more space between nucleus (which is in center of atom) and electron of outer shell. the more far away they are the less attraction force between them.

so its easier for potassuim to lose one electron than for lithuim.

so that means potassium will easily give up 1 electron to react with non metal or other element therefore it is more reactive than lithuim

but in case of non metal, the opposite happens but simple to understand.

as you go down the group 7 (halogen- Cl, Br, I) element will get bigger therefore force between nucleus and outer electron is getting smaller. they have to gain 1 electron in order to fill the outer shell (to gain noble gas electron configuration.)

as florine is more smaller in size than clorine it is more reactive because florine has more tendency to pull extra electron from metal or other element towards its side. so it easily gain 1 electron to react.

A liquid has an empirical formula CCl2, and a boiling point of 1 21 oC. When vapourised, the gaseous compound has a density of 4
Darya [45]

Based on the data given, the molar mass of the gas is 165.5 g/mol while the molecular weight of the gas is 165.5 amu

<h3>How can molar mass of a gas be obtained from density, temperature and pressure?</h3>

The molar mass of a gas can be obtained from density, temperature and pressure using the formula below:

  • molar mass = density × molar gas constant × temperature/pressure

Molar gas constant, R = R = 0.082 L.atm/mol/K.

Temperature = 150 °C = 423 K

Pressure = 785 torr = 1.033 atm

density = 4.93 g/L

molar mass of gas = 4.93 × 0.082 × 423/1.033

molar mass of gas = 165.5 g/mol

Then, molecular weight of the gas = 165.5 amu

Therefore, the molar mass of the gas is 165.5 g/mol while the molecular weight of the gas is 165.5 amu

A solution is prepared from 4.5701 g of magnesium chloride and 43.238 g of water. The vapor pressure of water above this solutio
balandron [24]

Answer:

i = 2.483

Explanation:

The vapour pressure lowering formula is:

Pₐ = Xₐ×P⁰ₐ <em>(1)</em>

For electrolytes:

Pₐ = nH₂O / (nH₂O + inMgCl₂)×P⁰ₐ

Where:

Pₐ is vapor pressure of solution (<em>0.3624atm</em>), nH₂O are moles of water, nMgCl₂ are moles of MgCl₂, i is Van't Hoff Factor, Xₐ is mole fraction of solvent and P⁰ₐ is pressure of pure solvent (<em>0.3804atm</em>)

4.5701g of MgCl₂ are:

4.5701g ₓ (1mol / 95.211g) = 0.048000 moles

43.238g of water are:

43.238g ₓ (1mol / 18.015g) = 2.400 moles

Replacing in (1):

0.3624atm = 2,4mol / (2.4mol + i*0.048mol)×0.3804atm

0.3624atm / 0.3804atm = 2,4mol / (2.4mol + i*0.048mol)

2.4mol + i*0.048mol = 2.4mol / 0.9527

2.4mol + i*0.048mol = 2.5192mol

i*0.048mol = 2.5192mol - 2.4mol

i = 0.1192mol / 0.048mol

<em>i = 2.483</em>

I hope it helps!

15.0 mL of an unknown clear liquid is added to a 50 mL graduated cylinder. The mass of the liquid is determined to be 12.7 grams
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

\boxed {\tt A. \ d=0.85 \ g/mL}

Explanation:

Density is found by dividing the mass by the volume.

d=\frac{m}{v}

The mass of the liquid is 12.7 grams.

We know that 15 mL of this liquid was added to a 50 mL graduated cylinder. Therefore, the volume is 15 mL. The 50 mL is not relevant, it only tells us about the graduated cylinder.

m= 12.7 \ g\\v= 15 \ mL

Substitute the values into the formula.

d=\frac{12.7 \ g}{ 15 mL}

Divide.

d=0.846666667 \ g/mL

Round to the nearest hundredth. The 6 in the tenth place tells us to round the 4 to a 5.

d \approx 0.85 \ g/mL

The density of the liquid is about 0.85 grams per milliliter and choice A is correct.
