A chemical engineer must calculate the maximum safe operating temperature of a high-pressure gas reaction vessel. The vessel is

a stainless-steel cylinder that measures 41.0cm wide and 49.2cm high. The maximum safe pressure inside the vessel has been measured to be 3.70MPa. For a certain reaction the vessel may contain up to 2.50kg of dinitrogen difluoride gas.
Required:
Calculate the maximum safe operating temperature the engineer should recommend for this reaction. Write your answer in degrees Celsius. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.

Answer:

T=2.78x10^3 \°C

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, considering that the safe temperature may be computed via the ideal gas law as we now the pressure, mass and volume via the dimensions:

V=\pi r^2 h=\pi *(41.0cm)^2*49.2cm=2.60x10^5cm^3*\frac{1L}{1000cm^3} =260L

The pressure in atm is:

P=3.70MPa*\frac{1x10^6Pa}{1MPa} \frac{1atm}{101325Pa} =36.5atm

And the moles considering the mass and molar mass (66 g/mol) of dinitrogen difluoride (N₂F₂):

n_{N_2F_2}=2.50kg*\frac{1000g}{1kg}*\frac{1mol}{66g} =37.9mol

In sich a way, by applying the ideal gas equation, which is not the best assumption but could work as an approximation due to the high temperature, the temperature, with three significant figures, will be:

T=\frac{PV}{nR}=\frac{36.5Pa*260L}{37.9mol*0.082\frac{atm*L}{mol*K} }\\  \\T=3053.6K-273.15\\\\T=2.78x10^3 \°C

Best regards.

If 36.9 mL of B2H6 reacted with excess oxygen gas, determine the actual yield of B2O3 if the percent yield of B2O3 was 75.7%. (T
zhuklara [117]

Answer: The actual yield of B_2O_3 is 60.0 g

Explanation:-

The balanced chemical reaction :

B_2H_6(l)+3O_2(g)\rightarrow B_2O_3(s)+3H_2O(l)

Mass of B_2H_6 =Density\times Volume=1.131g/ml\times 36.9ml=41.7g

\text{Moles of solute}=\frac{\text{given mass}}{\text{Molar Mass}}    

\text{Moles of} B_2H_6=\frac{41.7g}{27.668g/mol}=1.51moles

According to stoichiometry:

1 mole of B_2H_6 gives = 1 mole of B_2O_3

1.51 moles of B_2H_6 gives =\frac{1}{1}\times 1.51=1.51 moles of B_2O_3

Theoretical yield of B_2O_3=moles\times {Molar mass}}=1.14mol\times 69.62g/mol=79.3g

Percent yield of B_2O_3= 75.7\%

\%\text{ yield}=\frac{\text{Actual yield}}{\text{Theoretical yield}}\times 100

75.7\%=\frac{\text{Actual yield}}{79.3}\times 100

{\text{Actual yield}}=60.0g

Thus the actual yield of B_2O_3 is 60.0 g

Vinegar is a solution of acetic acid (the solute) in water (the solvent) with a solution density of 1010 g/L. If vinegar is 0.80
Damm [24]

Answer:

4.8 %

Explanation:

We are asked the concentration in % by mass, given the molarity of the solution and its density.

0.8 molar solution means that we have 0.80 moles of acetic acid in 1 liter of solution. If we convert the moles of acetic acid to grams, and the 1 liter solution to grams, since we are given the density of solution, we will have the values necessary to calculate the % by mass:

MW acetic acid = 60.0 g/mol

mass acetic acid (the solute) = 0.80 mol x 60 g / mol = 48.00 g

mass of solution = 1000 cm³ x 1.010 g/ cm³      (1l= 1000 cm³)

                            = 1010 g

% (by mass) = 48.00 g/ 1010 g  x 100 = 4.8 %

If 0.640 g of beautiful blue crystals of azulene is dissolve in 99 g of benzen, the resulting solutions boils at 80.23 degrees c
devlian [24]

This problem handles<em> boiling-point elevation</em>, which means we will use the formula:

ΔT = Kb * m

Where ΔT is the difference of Temperature between boiling points of the solution and the pure solvent (Tsolution - Tsolvent). Kb is the ebullioscopic constant of the solvent (2.64 for benzene), and m is the molality of the solution.

Knowing that benzene's boiling point is 80.1°C, we <u>solve for m</u>:

Tsolution - Tsolvent = Kb * m

80.23 - 80.1 = 2.64 * m

m = 0.049 m

We use the definition of molality to <u>calculate the moles of azulene</u>:

0.049 m = Xmoles azulene / 0.099 kgBenzene

Xmoles azulene = 4.87 x10⁻³ moles azulene

We use the mass and the moles of azulene to<u> calculate its molecular weight</u>:

0.640 g / 4.875 x10⁻³ mol = 130.28 g/mol

<em>A molecular formula that would fulfill that molecular weight</em> is C₁₀H₁₀. So that's the result of solving this problem.

The actual molecular formula of azulene is C₁₀H₈.

Under standard conditions, a given reaction is endergonic (i.e., ΔG &gt;0). Which of the following can render this reaction favo
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

Maintaining a high starting-material concentration can render this reaction favorable.

Explanation:

A reaction is <em>favorable</em> when <em>ΔG < 0</em> (<em>exergonic</em>). ΔG depends on the temperature and on the reaction of reactants and products as established in the following expression:

ΔG = ΔG° + R.T.lnQ

where,

ΔG° is the standard Gibbs free energy

R is the ideal gas constant

T is the absolute temperature

Q is the reaction quotient

To make ΔG < 0 when ΔG° > 0 we need to make the term R.T.lnQ < 0. Since T is always positive we need lnQ to be negative, what happens when Q < 1. Q < 1 implies the concentration of reactants being greater than the concentration of products, that is, maintaining a high starting-material concentration will make Q < 1.
