Why does a gas take the shape and volume of its container

Chemistry
1 answer:
Semmy [17]3 years ago
7 0
Gas molecules have either very weak bonds or no bonds at all, so they can move freely and quickly. Because of this, not only will a gas conform to the shape of its container, it will also expand to completely fill the container.

Convert mass to moles for both reactants. (round to 2 significant figures.)
Maslowich

Answer:

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of CuCl₂  = 2.50g

Mass of Al  = 0.50g

Unknown:

Number of moles of CuCl₂ and Al  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we must understand that the number of moles is a fundamental property used in stoichiometry calculations.

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

Molar mass of CuCl₂  = 63.6 + 2(35.5) = 134.5g/mole

Molar mass of Al  = 26.98g/mole

          Number of moles of  CuCl₂  = \frac{2.5}{134.5}  = 0.019moles

        Number of moles of Al  = \frac{0.5}{26.98}   = 0.019moles

What is the momentum of a 1,700 kg car travelling in a straight line at 13 m/s?
Anna71 [15]

Answer:

Explanation:

We know that momentum is the product of mass and velocity so here

mass (m) = 1700 kg

velocity (v) = 13 m/s

So now

momentum = m * v

                   = 1700 * 13

                   = 22100 kg m/s

hope it helps :)

How many liters is 1.9 mol of Cl2 at STP?
Lena [83]

Answer:

V = 42.6 L

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of Cl₂ = 1.9 mol

Temperature and pressure = standard

Volume occupy = ?

Solution:

The given problem will be solve by using general gas equation,

PV = nRT

P= Pressure

V = volume

n = number of moles

R = general gas constant = 0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K  

T = temperature in kelvin

By putting values,

1 atm ×  V = 1.9 mol ×0.0821 atm.L /mol.K × 273.15 k

V = 42.6  atm.L / 1 atm

V = 42.6 L

Bill, a lab technician, was asked to measure out sodium hydroxide (NaOH) for an experiment in a research lab. He was given a cho
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

He is wrong . Most accurate is Buret .

Explanation:

The number of significant figure denotes the level of accuracy of a measurement .

Beaker can measure liquid in mL upto significant figure of 2 . That means it can measure volume in terms of 10 , 20 , 30mL etc . It can not measure 25 mL

accurately . The last figure of 28 mL is read by guess in the question . So it is not an accurate measurement .

Similarly , graduated cylinder can measure liquid upto significant figure of 3 .  That means it can measure volume in terms of 11 , 22 , 33 mL etc . It can not measure 25.5  mL accurately . The last figure of 28.3  mL is read by guess in the question . So it is less  accurate measurement .

Similarly , buret  can measure liquid upto significant figure of 4 .  That means it can measure volume in terms of 11.2 , 22.3 , 33.5 mL etc . It can not measure 25.53  mL accurately . The last figure of 28.32  mL is read by guess in the question . So it is most accurate among all the three instrument because it can measure accurately mL upto one tenth of it .
