A container is filled with hydrogen gas. It has a volume of 4 liters and a pressure of 2 atm. If the pressure of the container i
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

1.33 L.

Explanation:

  • We can use the general law of ideal gas: PV = nRT.

where, P is the pressure of the gas in atm.

V is the volume of the gas in L.

n is the no. of moles of the gas in mol.

R  is the general gas constant,

T is the temperature of the gas in K.

  • If n and T are constant, and have different values of P and V:

<em>(P₁V₁) = (P₂V₂)</em>

<em></em>

Knowing that:

V₁  =  4.0 L, P₁ = 2.0 atm,

V₂  =  ??? L, P₂ = 6.0 atm.

  • Applying in the above equation

(P ₁V₁) = (P₂V₂)

<em>∴ V₂ = P ₁V₁/P₂</em> = (2.0 atm)(4.0 L)/(6.0 atm) =<em> 1.33 L.</em>

BALANCE the equation
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

1. 4FeCl3 + 3O2 → 2Fe2O3 + 6Cl2

2. 6 moles of Cl2

Explanation:

1. The balanced equation for the reaction. This is illustrated below:

4FeCl3 + 3O2 → 2Fe2O3 + 6Cl2

2. Determination of the number of mole of Cl2 produce when 4 moles of FeCl3 react with 4 moles. To obtain the number of mole of Cl2 produced, we must determine which reactant is the limiting reactant.

This is illustrated below:

From the balanced equation above,

4 moles of FeCl3 reacted with 3 moles of O2.

Since lesser amount of O2 (i.e 3 moles) than what was given (i.e 4 moles) is needed to react completely with 4 moles of FeCl3, therefore FeCl3 is the limiting reactant and O2 is the excess reactant.

Finally, we can obtain the number of mole Cl2 produced from the reaction as follow:

Note: the limiting reactant is used as it will produce the maximum yield of the reaction since all of it is used up in the reaction.

From the balanced equation above,

4 moles of FeCl3 will react to produced 6 moles of Cl2.

Calculate the density of a solid in g/cm3 if it weighs 38.3 kg and has a volume of 0.00463 m3.
RideAnS [48]

Answer: D=8.27 g/cm³

Explanation:

Density is mass/volume. Mass is in grams and volume is in liters. In this case, the problem wants our volume to be in cm³. All we need to do is to make some conversions to convert kg/m³ to g/cm³.

D=\frac{38.3kg}{0.00463m^3} *\frac{(1m)^3}{(100cm)^3} *\frac{1000g}{1kg}

With this equation, the m³ and kg cancel out, and we are left with g/cm³.

D=8.27 g/cm³

SOMEONE PLS HELP ME ITS URGENT
Simora [160]

If copper is heated with iron oxide there is no obvious reaction because

copper is less reactive than iron.

On a reactivity chart, copper is far below iron. This makes it impossible for a replacement reaction to occur, so the equation doesn't change.

I hope I helped!
