Answer: The mass percentage of
is 5.86%
Explanation:
To calculate the mass percentage of
in the sample it is necessary to know the mass of the solute (
in this case), and the mass of the solution (pesticide sample, whose mass is explicit in the letter of the problem).
To calculate the mass of the solute, we must take the mass of the
precipitate. We can establish a relation between the mass of
and
using the stoichiometry of the compounds:

Since for every mole of Tl in
there are two moles of Tl in
, we have:

Using the molar mass of
we have:

Finally, we can use the mass percentage formula:

<h3><u> Answer</u>;</h3>
= 4.0 L
<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
Boyle's law states that the volume of a fixed mass of a gas is inversely proportional to pressure at a constant temperature.
Therefore; <em>Volume α 1/pressure</em>
<em>Mathematically; V α 1/P</em>
<em>V = kP, where k is a constant;</em>
<em>P1V1 = P2V2</em>
<em>V1 = 0.5 l, P1 =203 kPa, P2 = 25.4 kPa</em>
<em>V2 = (0.5 × 203 )/25.4 </em>
<em> = 3.996 </em>
<em> ≈ </em><em><u>4.0 L</u></em>
Answer:
36.63 Torr
Explanation:
You need to use two expressions, one for pressure and the other with the relation of density and height of the column.
For the pressure:
P = h * d * g (1)
h is height.
d density
g gravity
The second expression put a relation between the densities and height of the column so:
d1/d2 = h1/h2 (2)
let 1 be the phthalate, and 2 the mercury.
Let's calculate first the relation of density:
d1/d2 = 13.53 / 1.046 = 12.93
Now with the first expression, we can calculate the pressure so:
P = hdg
We have two compounds so,
h1d1g = h2d2g ---> gravity cancels out
From here, we can solve for h2:
h2 = h1*(d1/d2)
replacing:
h2 = 459 / 12.53
h2 = 36.63 mm
1 mmHg is 1 torr, therefore the pressure of the gas in Torr would be 36.63 Torr
