Lee conducts an experiment to see if mass is conserved when a piece of charcoal is burned for 5.0 minutes. He measures the mass

of the charcoal before lighting it with a match. At the end of 5.0 minutes, Lee puts out the fire by suffocating it. After the charcoal has cooled, he measures its mass again. His data are below.
Initial Mass | Final Mass
.415 | .289

Charlene tries to repeat Lee's experiment by using a different piece of charcoal. But she burns the charcoal for just 3.0 minutes and collects all of the gas and dust released by the burning charcoal. She then weighs the total mass of these objects. Her results are below.
Initial Mass | Final Mass
.498 | .498
Charlene's experimental results indicate that mass was conserved. Why do Lee's results indicate that mass was not conserved?

He burned the charcoal for a longer period of time than Charlene did.

He did not collect the gas and dust released by the burning charcoal.

He forgot to measure the mass of the charcoal while it was still burning.

Mass is not conserved when an object undergoes a chemical change.

Charlene conserves mass by collecting "the gas and dust released by the burning charcoal", and Lee does not . . . so the answer is . .

<u><em> . . . He did not collect the gas and dust released by the burning charcoal.</em></u>

In a fixed cylinder are 3moles of oxygen gas at 300Kelvin and 1.25atm. What is the volume of the container?
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

The volume of the container is 59.112 L

Explanation:

Given that,

Number of moles of Oxygen, n = 3

Temperature of the gas, T = 300 K

Pressure of the gas, P = 1.25 atm

We need to find the volume of the container. For a gas, we know that,

PV = nRT

V is volume

R is gas constant, R =  0.0821 atm-L/mol-K

So,

V=\dfrac{nRT}{P}\\\\V=\dfrac{3\ mol\times 0.0821\ L-atm/mol-K \times 300\ K}{1.25\ atm}\\\\V=59.112\ L

So, the volume of the container is 59.112 L

Nitrogen dioxide (NO2) cannot be obtained in a pure form in the gas phase because it exists as a mixture of NO2 and N2O4. At 16°
Pavel [41]

Answer:

PNO₂ = 0.49 atm

PN₂O₄ = 0.45 atm

Explanation:

Let's begin with the equation of ideal gas, and derivate from it an equation that  involves the density (ρ = m/V).

PV = nRT

n = m/M (m is the mass, and M the molar mass)

PV = \frac{m}{M}RT

PxM = \frac{m}{V}RT

PxM = ρRT

ρ = PxM/RT

With the density of the gas mixture, we can calculate the average of molar mass (Mavg), with the constant of the gases R = 0.082 atm.L/mol.K, and T = 16 + 273 = 289 K

2.7 = \frac{0.94xMavg}{0.082x289}

0.94Mavg = 63.9846

Mavg = 68.0687 g/mol

The molar mass of N is 14 g/mol and of O is 16 g/mol, than M_{NO2} = 46 g/mol and M_{N2O4} = 96 g/mol. Calling y the molar fraction:

Mavg = M_{NO2}y_{NO2} + M_{N2O4}y_{N2O4}

And,

y_{NO2} + y_{N2O4} = 1

y_{N2O4} = 1 - y_{NO2}

So,

68.0687 = 46y_{NO2} + 92x(1 - y_{NO2})

68.0687 - 92 = 46y_{NO2} - 92y_{NO2}

46y_{NO2} = 23.9313

y_{NO2} = 0.52

y_{N2O4} = 0.48

The partial pressure is the molar fraction multiplied by the total pressure so:

PNO₂ = 0.52x0.94 = 0.49 atm

PN₂O₄ = 0.48x0.94 = 0.45 atm

A mysterious white powder could be powdered sugar (C12H22O11), cocaine (C17H21NO4), codeine (C18H21NO3), norfenefrine (C8H11NO2)
rodikova [14]

Norfenefrine (C₈H₁₁NO₂).

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

We will solve a case related to one of the colligative properties, namely freezing point depression.

The freezing point of the solution is the temperature at which the solution begins to freeze. The difference between the freezing point of the solvent and the freezing point of the solution is called freezing point depression.

\boxed{ \ \Delta T_f = T_f(solvent) - T_f(solution) \ } \rightarrow \boxed{ \ \Delta T_f = K_f \times molality \ }

<u>Given:</u>

A mysterious white powder could be,

  • powdered sugar (C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁) with a molar mass of 342.30 g/moles,
  • cocaine (C₁₇H₂₁NO₄) with a molar mass of 303.35 g/moles,
  • codeine (C₁₈H₂₁NO₃) with a molar mass of 299.36 g/moles,
  • norfenefrine (C₈H₁₁NO₂) with a molar mass of 153.18 g/moles, or
  • fructose (C₆H₁₂O₆) with a molar mass of 180.16 g/moles.

When 82 mg of the powder is dissolved in 1.50 mL of ethanol (density = 0.789 g/cm³, normal freezing point −114.6°C, Kf = 1.99°C/m), the freezing point is lowered to −115.5°C.

<u>Question: </u>What is the identity of the white powder?

<u>The Process:</u>

Let us identify the solute, the solvent, initial, and final temperatures.

  • The solute = the powder
  • The solvent = ethanol
  • The freezing point of the solvent = −114.6°C
  • The freezing point of the solution = −115.5°C

Prepare masses of solutes and solvents.

  • Mass of solute = 82 mg = 0.082 g
  • Mass of solvent = density x volume, i.e., \boxed{ \ 0.789 \ \frac{g}{cm^3} \times 1.50 \ cm^3 = 1.1835 \ g = 0.00118 \ kg  \ }

We must prepare the solvent mass unit in kg because the unit of molality is the mole of the solute divided by the mass of the solvent in kg.

The molality formula is as follows:

\boxed{ \ m = \frac{moles \ of \ solute}{kg \ of \ solvent} \ } \rightarrow \boxed{ \ m = \frac{mass \ of \ solute \ (g)}{molar \ mass \ of \ solute \times kg \ of \ solvent} \ }

Now we combine it with the formula of freezing point depression.

\boxed{ \ \Delta T_f =  K_f \times \frac{mass \ of \ solute \ (g)}{molar \ mass \ of \ solute \times kg \ of \ solvent} \ }

It is clear that we will determine the molar mass of the solute (denoted by Mr).

We enter all data into the formula.

\boxed{ \ -114.6^0C - (-115.5^0C) = 1.99 \frac{^0C}{m} \times \frac{0.082 \ g}{Mr \times 0.00118 \ kg} \ }

\boxed{ \ 0.9 = \frac{1.99 \times 0.082}{Mr \times 0.00118} \ }

\boxed{ \ Mr = \frac{0.16318}{0.9 \times 0.00118} \ }

We get \boxed{ \ Mr = 153.65 \ }

These results are very close to the molar mass of norfenefrine which is 153.18 g/mol. Thus the white powder is norfenefrine.
