<span>Density is a value for mass, such as kg, divided by a value for volume, such as m3. Density is a physical property of a substance that represents the mass of that substance per unit volume. We calculate as follows:

PV = nRT
PV = mRT/ Molar mass
m/V = P(molar mass)/RT
Density = P(molar mass)/RT 
Density = 2.0 ( 30.97 ) / 0.08206 ( 20 + 273.15) = 2.57 g/L <----First option</span>

Answer: Density of the gas is 2.57 g/L.

Explanation: Converting the mass of phosphorous gas into its moles using the formula:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}

Given mass of phosphorous gas = 15 g

Molar mass of phosphorous gas = 31 g/mol

Using above equation, we get

n=\frac{15g}{31g/mol}=0.484moles

Using Ideal gas equation, which is:

PV=nRT

Given:

P = 2 atm

T=20^oC=(273+20)K=293K    (Conversion Factor: 0^oC=273K )

n = 0.484 moles (Calculated above)

R=0.082057\text{ L atm }mol^{-1}K^{-1}  (Gas Constant)

Putting all the values in above equation, we calculate the number of moles.

2atm\times V=(0.484moles)(0.082057\text{ L atm }mol^{-1}K^{-1})(293K)

V = 5.818 L

Now, to calculate density, we use the formula:

Density=\frac{Mass}{Volume}

Density=\frac{15g}{5.818L}

Density = 2.57 g/L

A 59.1g sample of aluminum is put into a calorimeter (see sketch at right) that contains 250.0g of water. The aluminum sample st
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

The specific heat capacity of aluminum according to this experiment is 0.863 J/g°C

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of aluminium = 59.1 grams

Mass of water = 250.0 grams

Initial temperature of aluminium = 91.3 °C

Initial temperature of water = 16.0 °C

Final temperature = 19.5 °C

Pressure remains constant

Specific heat capacity of water = 4.186 J/g°C

Step 2: Calculate specific heat of aluminium

Heat lost = heat gained

Qlost = -Q heat

Q = m*c*ΔT

heat aluminium = - heat water

m(aluminium) * c(aluminium) * ΔT(aluminium) = -m(water) * c(water) * ΔT(water)

⇒m(aluminium) = mass of aluminium = 59.1 grams

⇒c(aluminium) = the specific heat of aluminium = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒ΔT = the change in temperature = T2 -T2 = 19.5 - 91.3 = -71.8 °C

⇒ m(water) = 250.0 grams

⇒c(water) = the specific heat of water = 4.186 J/g°C

⇒ΔT = the change in temperature = T2 -T2 = 19.5 - 16.0 = 3.5 °C

59.1 * c(aluminium) * -71.8 °C = 250.0 * 4.186 J/g°C * 3.5 °C

c(aluminium) = 0.863 J/g°C

The specific heat capacity of aluminum according to this experiment is 0.863 J/g°C

How many moles are in 25.2g of KMnO4?
Zolol [24]
When finding the moles in a compound you have to know the grams. In this case, 25.2 grams are given for KMnO4. To find the moles you would divide the amount of grams by the molar mass of KMnO4. The molar mass of KmnO4 is 158.034. You you would now divide 25.2 by 158.034 which is 0.15946 moles. Depending on how many decimal places the questions asks for is dependent on you. I just went with 5 significant figures.

loris [4]

Answer:

5.00×10-19 J

Explanation:

E = hv

but v = c ÷ wavelength

E = (6.626×10-34) × ((3×10^8)÷(398×10-9))

= 4.9945×10-19

≈5.00×10-19

Hope this helps
