Suppose you are asked to find the area of a rectangle that is 2.1- cm wide by 5.6- cm long. Your calculator answer would be 11.7

6 cm2 . Now suppose you are asked to enter the answer to two significant figures.

Two significant figures means 2 digits after the decimal. 11.76 already has two digits so you don’t need to do anything. The answer is just 11.76cm2

A 5.0 L sample of gas at 300. K is heated to 600. K. What will the new volume of the gas be?

Ainat [17]

Answer:

$V_2=10L$

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the given information, it turns out possible for us to calculate the required new volume by using the Charles' law as a directly proportional relationship between temperature and volume:

$\frac{V_2}{T_2} =\frac{V_1}{T_1}$

In such a way, we solve for V2 and plug in V1, T1 and T2 to obtain:

$V_2=\frac{V_1T_2}{T_1}\\\\V_2=\frac{5.0L*600K}{300K}\\\\V_2=10L$

Regards!

Find the volume of a gas if 3.6 mols of the gas is at STP

Digiron [165]

Answer:

81 L gas

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Ideal Gas Law</u>

STP (Standard Conditions for Temperature and Pressure) = 22.4 L per mole at 1 atm, 273 K

<u>Stoichiometry</u>

Using Dimensional Analysis

Explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

[Given] 3.6 mols gas at STP

[Solve] volume (L) of gas

<u>Step 2: Convert</u>

[DA] Set up: $\displaystyle 3.6 \ mol \ gas(\frac{22.4 \ L \ gas}{1 \ mol \ gas \ at \ STP})$
[DA] Multiply [Cancel out units]: $\displaystyle 80.64 \ L \ gas$

<u>Step 3: Check</u>

<em>Follow sig fig rules and round. We are given 2 sig figs.</em>

80.64 L gas ≈ 81 L gas
