Answer:

Explanation:

If the reaction is really exothermic (and it is) then the water would spatter all over the place. It would boil off if the container could hold it. It would also react according to the following reaction.

You are talking about a reaction like

2K + 2HOH = 2KOH + H2

At what Celsius temperature does 0.750 mol of an ideal gas occupy a volume of 35.9 L at 114 kPa?
shepuryov [24]

382.85  Celsius is the temperature does 0.750 moles of an ideal gas occupy a volume of 35.9 L at 114 kPa.

Explanation:

Given data:

number of moles of the gas  = 0.75 moles

volume of the gas = 35.9 liters

pressure of the gas = 114 KPa or 1.125 atm

R = 0.0821 latm/moleK

temperature of the gas T = ?

The equation used to calculate temperature from above data is ideal gas law equation.

the equation is :

PV = nRT

T = \frac{PV}{nR}

Putting the values in the above rewritten equation:

T = \frac{1.125 X 35.9}{0.75 X 0.0821}

T = 655.9 K

To convert kelvin into celsius, formula used is

K = 273.15+ C

putting the values in the equation

C = 656 - 273.15

   = 382.85  Celsius
