For scuba dives below 150 ft, helium is often used to replace nitrogen in the scuba tank. If 15.2 g of He(g) and 30.6 g of O2(g)
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

see explanation below

Explanation:

To do this exercise, we need to use the following expression:

P = nRT/V

This is the equation for an ideal gas. so, we have the temperature of 22 °C, R is the gas constant which is 0.082 L atm / mol K, V is the volume in this case, 5 L, and n is the moles, which we do not have, but we can calculate it.

For the case of the oxygen (AW = 16 g/mol):

n = 30.6 / 32 = 0.956 moles

For the case of helium (AW = 4 g/mol)_

n = 15.2 / 4 = 3.8 moles

Now that we have the moles, let's calculate the pressures:

P1 = 0.956 * 0.082 * 295 / 5

P1 = 4.63 atm

P2 = 3.8 * 0.082 * 295 / 5

P2 = 18.38 atm

Finally the total pressure:

Pt = 4.63 + 18.38

Pt = 23.01 atm

One atom of silicon can properly combined in a compound with
xxMikexx [17]
<span>The correct answer should be two oxygen atoms. That's because it's properties are similar to carbon insofar that it can form four bonds, so if it forms bonds with 2 oxygen atoms then it will have all four bonds created since Oxygen forms double bonds. This would make SiO2 which is also known worldwide as silica.</span>

How many grams of copper (II) nitrate would be produced from 0.80 g of copper metal reacting with excess nitric acid?
zaharov [31]

Answer:

m_{Cu(NO_3)_2}=2.36 gCu(NO_3)_2

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the chemical reaction between copper and nitric acid is:

2HNO_3+Cu\rightarrow Cu(NO_3)_2+H_2

By starting with 0.80 g of copper metal (molar mass = 63.54 g/mol) and considering the 1:1 mole ratio between copper and copper (II) nitrate (molar mass = 187.56 g/mol) we can compute that mass via stoichiometry as shown below:

m_{Cu(NO_3)_2}=0.80gCu*\frac{1molCu}{63.54gCu} *\frac{1molCu(NO_3)_2}{1molCu} *\frac{187.56gCu(NO_3)_2}{1molCu(NO_3)_2} \\\\m_{Cu(NO_3)_2}=2.36 gCu(NO_3)_2

However, the real reaction between copper and nitric acid releases nitrogen oxide, yet it does not modify the calculations since the 1:1 mole ratio is still there:

4HNO_3+Cu\rightarrow Cu(NO_3)_2+2H_2O+2NO_2

Best regards!

A mixture of gases containing 0.20 mol of SO2 and 0.20 mol of O2 in a 4.0 L flask reacts to form SO3. If the temperature is 25ºC
diamong [38]

Answer : The pressure in the flask after reaction complete is, 2.4 atm

Explanation :

To calculate the pressure in the flask after reaction is complete we are using ideal gas equation.

PV=n_TRT\\\\P=(n_1+n_2)\times \frac{RT}{V}

where,

P = final pressure in the flask = ?

R = gas constant = 0.0821 L.atm/mol.K

T = temperature = 25^oC=273+25=298K

V = volume = 4.0 L

n_1 = moles of SO_2 = 0.20 mol

n_2 = moles of O_2 = 0.20 mol

Now put all the given values in the above expression, we get:

P=(0.20+0.20)mol\times \frac{(0.0821L.atm/mol.K)\times (298K)}{4.0L}

P=2.4atm

Thus, the pressure in the flask after reaction complete is, 2.4 atm

Add electron dots and charges as necessary to show the reaction of potassium and bromine to form an ionic compound
S_A_V [24]

Explanation: Electron dot structures are the lewis dot structures which represent the number of valence electrons around an atom in a molecule.

The electronic configuration of potassium is [Ar]4s^1

Valence electrons of potassium are 1.

The electronic configuration of Bromine is [Ar]4s^24p^5

Valence electrons of bromine are 7.

These two elements form ionic compound.

Ionic compound is defined as the compound which is formed from the complete transfer of electrons from one element to another element.

Here, one electron is released by potassium which is accepted by bromine element. In this process, Potassium becomes cation having +1 charge and Bromine become anion having (-1) charge.

The ionic equation follows:

K^++Br^-\rightarrow KBr

The electron dot structure is provided in the image below.
