Answer:

e. reducing the pressure from 608 torr to 0.40 atm at constant temperature.

Explanation:

According to Boyle's law when a gas is at the same temperature and there is a mass in a closed container so the pressure and the volume changes in the opposite direction

So here the equation is

$P_1V_1=P_2V_2$

Now we choose the options

where,

$V_1 = 100\ mL = 0.1\ L\\\\V_2 = 200\ mL = 0.2\ L$

$P_1 = 608\ torr = 0.8\ atm \\\\P_2= 0.4\ atm$

Now applying these values to the above equation

So,

P1V1=P2V2

$P_1V_1=P_2V_2$

$0.8\times0.1 = 0.4\times0.2$

0.8 = 0.8

Hence, it is proved

(a) The mass density of a gaseous compound was found to be 1.23 kg m^−3 at 330 K and 20 kPa. What is the molar mass of the compo

Luden [163]

Answer:

The molar mass of the compound is:- 168.82 g/mol

The molar mass of the gas is:- 16.38 g/mol

Explanation:

(a)

Using ideal gas equation as:

$PV=nRT$

where,

P is the pressure

V is the volume

n is the number of moles

T is the temperature

R is Gas constant having value = 0.0821 L.atm/K.mol

Also,

Moles = mass (m) / Molar mass (M)

Density (d) = Mass (m) / Volume (V)

So, the ideal gas equation can be written as:

$PM=dRt$

Given that:-

Pressure = 20 kPa = 20000 Pa

The expression for the conversion of pressure in Pascal to pressure in atm is shown below:

P (Pa) = $\frac {1}{101325}$ P (atm)

20000 Pa = $\frac {20000}{101325}$ atm

Pressure = 0.1974 atm

Temperature = 330 K

d = 1.23 kg/m³ = 1.23 g/L

Molar mass = ?

Applying the equation as:

0.1974 atm × M = 1.23 g/L × 0.0821 L.atm/K.mol × 330 K

⇒M = 168.82 g/mol

<u>The molar mass of the compound is:- 168.82 g/mol</u>

(b)

Given that:

Pressure = 152 Torr

Temperature = 298 K

Volume = 250 cm³ = 0.25 L

Using ideal gas equation as:

$PV=nRT$

R = $62.3637\text{torr}mol^{-1}K^{-1}$

Applying the equation as:

152 Torr × 0.25 L = n × 62.3637 L.torr/K.mol × 298 K

⇒n = 0.002045 moles

Given that :

Mass of the gas = 33.5 mg = 0.0335 g

Molar mass = ?

The formula for the calculation of moles is shown below:

$moles = \frac{Mass\ taken}{Molar\ mass}$

Thus,

$0.002045\ moles
= \frac{0.0335\ g}{Molar\ mass}$

<u>The molar mass of the gas is:- 16.38 g/mol</u>

What is the empirical formula? A compound is used to treat iron deficiency in people. It contains 36.76% iron, 21.11% sulfur, an

Mandarinka [93]

Answer: The empirical formula of the compound is $Fe_1S_1O_4$

Explanation:

Empirical formula is defined formula which is simplest integer ratio of number of atoms of different elements present in the compound.

Percentage of iron in a compound = 36.76 %

Percentage of sulfur in a compound = 21.11 %

Percentage of oxygen in a compound = 42.13 %

Consider in 100 g of the compound:

Mass of iron in 100 g of compound = 36.76 g

Mass of iron in 100 g of compound = 21.11 g

Mass of iron in 100 g of compound = 42.13 g

Now calculate the number of moles each element:

Moles of iron= $\frac{36.76 g}{55.84 g/mol}=0.658 mol$

Moles of sulfur= $\frac{21.11 g}{32.06 g/mol}=0.658 mol$

Moles of oxygen= $\frac{42.13 g}{16 g/mol}=2.633 mol$

Divide the moles of each element by the smallest number of moles to calculated the ratio of the elements to each other

For Iron element = $\frac{0.658 mol}{0.658 mol}=1$

For sulfur element = $\frac{0.658 mol}{0.658 mol}=1$

For oxygen element = $\frac{2.633 mol}{0.658 mol}=4.001\approx 4$

So, the empirical formula of the compound is $Fe_1S_1O_4$

What is the maximum number of hydrogen atoms that can be covalently bonded in a molecule containing two carbon atoms?a) 2b) 3c)

aksik [14]

Answer:

The correct answer is Option-D (6 Hydrogen atoms).

Explanation:

Carbon atom has a unique property of linking to it self and making a chain of carbon called as Catenation. In a molecule having two carbon atoms there must be a bond between the two carbon atoms. The bond can be saturated (single bond) or unsaturated (double or triple bond). But as the statement states maximum number of hydrogen atoms so, we will asume the bond between two carbon atoms to be single.

As carbon has four valence electrons so, it has the ability to make four single bonds. In given molecule each carbon has already made a single bond with another carbon therefore, each carbon is left with three more unpaired electrons which will make covalent bond with three hydrogen atoms each as shown in attached structure.
