Name: Eric Dearing College ID: 0550796 Thomas Edison State College General Chemistry I with Labs (CHE-121) Section no.: Semester and year: May 2014 Written Assignment 6: Gases Answer all assigned questions and problems, and show all work. 1. A gas occupying a volume of 725 mL at a pressure of 0.970 atm is allowed to expand at constant temperature until its pressure reaches 0.541 atm. What is its final volume? (5 points) (Reference: Chang 5.19) Pi 0.970atm X Vi 725ml = 703/Pf 0.541atm = Vf 1299ml 2. The volume of a gas is 5.80 L, measured at 1.00 atm. What is the pressure of the gas in mmHg if the volume is changed to 9.65 L? (The temperature remains constant.) (5 points) (Reference: Chang 5.21) Vi 5.80L X Pi 1.0atm = 5.80L / Vf 9.65L =0.60atm 0.60atm X 760mmHG = 457mmHG 3. Why is the density of a gas much lower than that of a liquid or solid under atmospheric conditions? What units are normally used to express the density of gases? (5 points) Under normal conditions, the molecules of liquid and solid are tightly packed vs. gases molecules that are loosely packed therefore making the density of gas less dense compared to liquids and solids. The unit of measurement used to express gas density is grams per liter. 4. A sample of nitrogen gas kept in a container of volume 2.3 L and at a temperature of 32°C exerts a pressure 4.7 atm. Calculate the number of moles of gas present. (8 pts) n=PV/RT, convert 32°C to K, 32°C + 273 = 310K (Reference: Chang 5.31) P 4.7atm x V 2.3L / R 0.0821atm x T 310K = n 0.42mol 5. What volume will 5.6 moles of sulfur hexafluoride (SF 6 ) gas occupy if the temperature and pressure of the gas are 128°C and 9.4 atm? (8 points) V=nRT/P, 128°C + 273 = 401K V= n5.6mol x R 0.821 x T 402K / P 9.4atm = V 19.6L (Reference: Chang 5.33) 6. A gas-filled balloon having a volume of 2.50 L at 1.2 atm and 25°C is allowed to rise to the stratosphere (about 30 km above the surface of Earth), where the temperature and pressure are –23°C and 3.00 × 10 –3 atm, respectively. Calculate the final volume of the balloon. (8 points) (Reference: Chang 5.35) P1xV1 / T1 = P2 x V2 / T2 P1 1.2atm x V1 2.50L / 25C+273 = T1 298K P2 3.00x10 -3 x V2 ? / -23C +273 = T2 250K 1.2atm x 2.50L x 250K / 3.00x10 -3 atm x 298K = 750 / 0.894 = V2 839L 1
7. A 2.10-L vessel contains 4.65 g of a gas at 1.00 atm and 27.0°C. (a) Calculate the density of the gas in grams per liter. D = m/V, 4.65g / 2.10L = D 2.21 g/L (b) What is the molar mass of the gas? (10 points) n = PV/RT, P 1.00atm x V 2.10L / R 0.08206 x 27C + 273 = 300K = 0.085mol 4.65g / 0.085mol = 54.7 g/mol 8. A certain anesthetic contains 64.9 percent carbon, 13.5 percent hydrogen, and 21.6 percent oxygen by mass. At 120°C and 750 mmHg, 1.00 L of the gaseous compound weighs 6.90 g. What is the molecular formula of the compound? (10 points) Assume 100g, 64.9g C / 12amu = 5.4mol, 13.5g H / 1amu = 13.5mol, 21.6g O / 16amu = 1.35mol, Divide by smallest, 5.4 / 1.35 = 4, 13.5 / 1.35 = 10, C 4 H 10 O aw = 74 PV = nRT, Solve for n, n= PV/RT, P 750mmHG / 760 = .98atm, T 120C + 273 = 393K (P .98atm x V 1.0L) / (R 0.0821 x 393K) = n 0.0307mol, m 6.90g / 0.0307mol = 224mw 224 / 74 = 3, C 4 H 10 O x 3 = Molecular formula C 12 H 30 O 3 9. What is the mass of the solid NH 4 Cl formed when 73.0 g of NH 3 ( g ) are mixed with an equal mass of gaseous HCl? What is the volume and identity of the gas remaining, measured at 14.0°C and 752 mmHg? (8 points) NH 3 ( g ) + HCl( g ) → NH 4 Cl (Reference: Chang 5.59) 73.0g NH 3 / 17amu = 4.3 mol 73.0g HCl / 36.5amu = 2.0 mol HCl = limiting reactant w/2.0mol, 2.0mol NH 3 produced w/ 2.3mol excess remaining 2.0mol NH 4 Cl x 53.5amu = 107.0g NH 4 Cl (s) produced PV = nRT = V= nRT/P, 752mmHG/760 = 0.98atm, 14C + 273 = 287K V = (n 2.3mol x R 0.0821 x T 287K) / P 0.98atm = 55.3L NH 3 remaining 10. A mixture of gases contains 0.31 mol CH 4 , 0.25 mol C 2 H 6, and 0.29 mol C 3 H 8 . The total pressure is 1.50 atm. Calculate the partial pressures of the gases. (8 points) (Reference: Chang 5.67) P1 + P2 + P3 = P T P1 0.31 mol CH 4 + P2 0.25 mol C 2 H 6 + P3 0.29 mol C 3 H 8 = P T 0.85 total mol P i of CH 4 = 0.31mol / 0.85 x 1.5atm = 0.55 atm P i of C 2 H 6 = 0.25mol / 0.85 x 1.5atm = 0.44 atm P i of C 3 H 8 = 0.29mol / 0.85 x 1.5atm = 0.51 atm 2
