X4O10
Let molar mass of X be y
molar mass = 4y + 10 x 16 = 4y+160
so, moles = 85.2 / (4y+160)
Moles of oxygen = 10 x [85.2 / (4y+160) ]
Mass of oxygen = 16 x 10 x [85.2 / (4y+160) ]
which is 48.0
so, 48 = 16 x 10 x [85.2 / (4y+160) ]
Solve the equation to get y.
y = 31
Answer: 94.13 L
Explanation: In STP in an ideal gas there is a standard value for both temperature and pressure. At STP,pressure is equal to 1atm and the temperature at 0°C is equal to 273.15K. This problem is an ideal gas so we use PV=nRT where R is a constant R= 0.08205 L.atm/mol.K.
To find volume, derive the equation, it becomes V=nRT/P. Substitute the values. V= 4.20 mol( 0.08205L.atm/mol.K)(273.15K) / 1 atm = 94.13 L. The mole units, atm and K will be cancelled out and L will be the remaining unit which is for volume.
Well you would think yeah because it’s a liquid but the answer is no
