How many grams of water are needed to form 21.8 grams of oxygen gas?

Chemistry

GaryK [48]2 years ago

Answer:

24.5g

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of oxygen gas = 21.8g

Unknown:

Mass of water  = ?

Solution:

This problem deals with the decomposition of water;

    Reaction equation;

                  2H₂O →  2H₂  +  O₂

2 mole of water will produce 1 mole of oxygen gas

First find the number of mole of the oxygen gas given;

          Number of moles  = \frac{mass}{molar mass}

    molar mass of O₂   = 2(16) = 32g/mol

 

  Number of moles of O₂  = \frac{21.8}{32}   = 0.68moles

 

    1 mole of oxygen gas will be produced from 2 mole of water

     0.68moles of oxygen gas will be produce from  0.68 x 2 moles of water;   = 1.36moles of water

Mass of water = number of moles x molar mass

  Molar mass of water = 2(1) + 16  = 18g/mol

Mass of water  = 1.36 x 18  = 24.5g

Concerning Boyle's Law, if you had a gas at a pressure of 101 kPa and decreased the volume of the container holding the gas to o
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

P_2=404 kPa

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, the Boyle's is mathematically defined via:

P_1V_1=P_2V_2

Which stands for an inversely proportional relationship between volume and pressure, it means the higher the volume the lower the pressure and vice versa. In such a way, since the volume is decreased to one quarter, we can write:

V_2=\frac{1}{4} V_1

We can compute the new pressure:

P_2=\frac{P_1V_1}{V_2} =\frac{P_1V_1}{\frac{1}{4} V_1} =\frac{101kPa*V_1}{\frac{1}{4} V_1} \\\\P_2=4*101kPa\\\\\\P_2=404 kPa

Which means the pressure is increased by a factor of four.

Regards.

Suppose that a catalyst lowers the activation barrier of a reaction from 125kJ/mol to 55kJ/mol125⁢kJ/mol to 55kJ/mol. By what fa
sineoko [7]

Answer:

The factor of increasing reaction rate is 1,85x10¹².

Explanation:

Using arrhenius formula:

k = A e^\frac{-E_{a}}{RT}

Where k is rate constant; A is frecuency factor; Eₐ is activation energy; R is gas constant (0,008134 kJ/molK); T is temperature 25°C = 298,15K

Thus, replacing for an activation energy of 125 kJ/mol assuming A as 1:

k = 1,25x10⁻²²

When activation energy is 55kJ/mol:

k = 2,31x10⁻¹⁰

Thus, the factor of increasing reaction rate is:

2,31x10⁻¹⁰/1,25x10⁻²² =<em> 1,85x10¹²</em>

<em></em>

I hope it helps!
