Interpretation:
Liquid nitrogen comes in large cylinders that required special tank carts and hold 120 L of liquid at 77 K. Given the density of liquid nitrogen of 0.840 g/cm3, using the van der Waals equation, the volume of the nitrogen gas after it evaporates at 77 K and atmospheric pressure is to be estimated.

- Target check For each of the macroscopic charcateristics unique to the gas phase of matter described in section 4.1-a compressibility, b expandability, c low density, d may be mixed in a fixed volume, and e uniform, constant pressure on container walls-describe how a postulate of the kinetic molecular theory explains the reason for the characteristic.arrow_forwardScottish physicist W. J. M. Rankine proposed an absolute temperature scale based on the Fahrenheit degree, now called degree Rankine abbreviated R and used by some engineering fields. If a degree Rankine is 5/9 of a degree Kelvin, what is the value of the ideal gas law constant in L. atm/mol. R?arrow_forwardA 752 g sample of iron ore is heated with excess carbon to form pure iron and carbon dioxide. The ore contains iron (III) oxide and other impurities. 453 g of pure iron are obtained from this sample. a. What is the mass percent of iron (III) oxide in the ore? Assume that iron(III) oxide is the only source of iron in the ore and the reaction is 100 % efficient. b. What is the volume of carbon dioxide at 25 oC and 95.0 KPa produced in this reaction.arrow_forward
- You are working in an oil refinery . Where you use hydrocarbon gases like methane ( CH4 ) , ethane ( C2H5 , and propane ( C3Hg ) and prepared a mixture . When measured the pressure at 25 ° C it turns out to be 7.50 am This gas mixture was then also used in a mass spectrophotometer and the following data was obtained Based on this information find the partial pressure of each gas and report respectively as their name .appeared in the questionarrow_forwardIn normal conditions (1 atm, 300K), 2 m3 of liquid water weighs: a. 2 kg b. 20 kg c. 200 kg d. 2000 kgarrow_forwardP1A.6 The molar mass of a newly synthesized fluorocarbon was measured in a gas microbalance. is device consists of a glass bulb forming one end of a beam, the whole surrounded by a closed container. e beam is pivoted, and the balance point is attained by raising the pressure of gas in the container, so increasing the buoyancy of the enclosed bulb. In one experiment, the balance point was reached when the fluorocarbon pressure was 327.10Torr; for the same setting of the pivot, a balance was reached when CHF3 (M = 70.014 g mol−1) was introduced at 423.22 Torr. A repeat of the experiment with a di erent setting of the pivot required a pressure of 293.22 Torr of the uorocarbon and 427.22 Torr of the CHF3. What is the molar mass of the fluorocarbon? Suggest a molecular formula.arrow_forward

Suggest a molecular formula.arrow_forwardA gas has a molar volume of 1.5 liters per mole and a collision diameter of 396 picometers. Its mean-free path is____ nanometersarrow_forwardThe human body burns glucose C6H12O6 for energy according to this chemical reaction: The products of the reaction are carbon dioxide CO2 and water H2O. Interestingly, all of the carbon dioxide and much of the water exits the body through the lungs: on every breath, the average person exhales 500.mL of air, which is typically enriched to 4% CO2 and 5% water vapor by volume. In short, when a person loses weight by dieting, the weight that is lost actually departs his body as a gas, every time he exhales. Each kilogram of body fat lost requires exhaling about 2.9kg of carbon dioxide. Calculate how many breaths it takes an average person to "exhale" 2.00kg of fat. Round your answer to the nearest thousand. You'll need to know that the density of CO2 is 2.0/kgm3.arrow_forward

What is the greatest volume of water that can be placed in the vessel and still have the vessel float at the surface of benzene?arrow_forwardEthyl stearate (C20H40O2) is a biodiesel produced from canola oil and ethanol.It is also used as a flavouring agent, mimicking coriander flavour.a. Write down and balance the chemical equation of complete combustion of ethyl stearate in oxygen (O2), where the sole products are carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O).Determine the volume of carbon dioxide (CO2) produced by the combustion of 1 L of Ethyl Stearate (density: 0.89 g cm-3) under standard conditions of temperature and pressure where the molar volume is VM = 22.4 L.arrow_forwardThe human body burns glucose C6H12O6 for energy according to this chemical reaction:→+C6H12O66O2+6CO26H2O.
