Most Bic lighters hold 5.0ml of liquified butane (density = 0.60 g/ml). Calculate the minimum size container you would need to "

catch" all of the butane (from a lighter) at room conditions, if you released all of the butane from the lighter.

Answer:

Volume of container = 0.0012 m³ or 1.2 L or 1200 ml

Explanation:

Volume of butane = 5.0 ml

density = 0.60 g/ml

Room temperature (T) = 293.15 K

Normal pressure (P) = 1 atm = 101,325 pa

Ideal gas constant (R) = 8.3145 J/mole.K)

volume of container V = ?

Solution

To find out the volume of container we use ideal gas equation

PV = nRT

P = pressure

V = volume

n = number of moles

R = gas constant

T = temperature

First we find out number of moles

<em>As Mass = density × volume</em>

mass of butane = 0.60 g/ml ×5.0 ml

mass of butane = 3 g

now find out number of moles (n)

n = mass / molar mass

n = 3 g / 58.12 g/mol

n = 0.05 mol

Now put all values in ideal gas equation

<em>PV = nRt</em>

<em>V = nRT/P</em>

V = (0.05 mol × 8.3145 J/mol.K × 293.15 K) ÷ 101,325 pa

V = 121.87 ÷ 101,325 pa

V = 0.0012 m³ OR 1.2 L OR 1200 ml

Why are weight and mass used synonymously on Earth?
RUDIKE [14]
Actually mass and weight are two different things but most people did not understand the difference between them. And they are used synonymously on the earth. Mass is the measure of the amount of matter and weight is the measure of how the force of gravity acts on the mass that is Weight = mass x force of gravity. And they are also directly proportional to each other that is also the reason both terms are used synonymously.

Which graphic below shows the correct orientation of each water molecule when it is near the cl- ion in the aqueous solution?
andrew-mc [135]
The question is missing the graphics required to answer which I have attached as an image.

There are four different representations of the orientation of water molecules around chloride anion. Let's first analyze the water molecule.

We have H-O-H as the structure of water. The oxygen atom is more electronegative than the hydrogen atoms, which results in a partial positive charge on the hydrogen atoms and a partial negative charge on the oxygen atom.

The chloride anion is a negative charge. Therefore, the water molecules should orient themselves with the hydrogen atoms facing the chlorine atom as the partial positive charge on the hydrogen atoms will be attracted to the negative charge of the chlorine atom.

The correct representation is shown in graph 3 which shows all hydrogen atoms facing the chlorine anion.

Which of these do not obey the octet rule? select all that apply. select all that apply. clo clo− clo2− clo3− clo4−?
ioda

The correct answer is ClO, ClO3-, ClO- and ClO4-

Kossel and Lewis in 1916 developed an important theory of chemical combination between atoms known as electronic theory of chemical bonding. According to this, atoms can combine either by transfer of valence electrons from one atom to another (gaining or losing) or by sharing of valence electron in order to have an octet( 8 electron) in their shells. This is known as octet rule.

In ClO2-, oxygen contains 8 electrons in its valence shell and oxygen will share one electron with chlorine to complete the octet of Cl. In other four, we can clearly see that there are more or less than 8 electrons in the outer shell of oxygen so we can clearly say that ClO, ClO3-, ClO- and ClO4-  are disobeying the octet rule.

CCl, 189.86 g/mol. Express your answer as a chemical formula.
kompoz [17]

Answer is: a chemical formula of the compound is C₄Cl₄.

CCl is empirical formula of the compound. Empirical formula gives the proportions of the elements present in a compound, so we know that proportion od carbon and chlorine is 1 : 1 (n(C) : n(Cl) = 1 : 1).

M(CCl) = Ar(C) + Ar(Cl) · g/mol.

M(CCl) = 12.0107 + 35.453 · g/mol.

M(CCl) = 47.4637 g/mol; molar mass of empirical formula.

M(compound) = 189.86 g/mol; molar mass of the compound.

M(compound) / M(CCl) = 189.86 g/mol / 47.4637 g/mol.

M(compound) / M(CCl) = 4; chemical formula of the compound have four carbon and four chlorine atoms.
