Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The number of moles of
Concept Introduction:
According to ideal gas equation:
Here, P is pressure, V is volume, n is number of moles, R is Universal gas constant and T is temperature.
The value of Universal gas constant can be taken as
Mass of gas can be calculated from number of moles and molar mass as follows:
Here, n is number of moles, m is mass and M is molar mass.
Answer to Problem 112AP
Volume of wet
Explanation of Solution
Calculation:
The balanced
Calculate number of moles of
Molar mass of
From the balanced chemical reaction, 1 mol of
For the given temperature and pressure, volume of wet
Convert the given temperature from
Thus,
Also, convert pressure from torr to atm as follows:
Thus,
Putting the values,
The volume of wet
The vapour pressure of water at
Thus,
This pressure should be subtracted from the total pressure to calculate the volume of
Thus, pressure of carbon dioxide becomes
Volume can be calculated using the ideal gas equation as follows:
Putting the values,
Therefore, volume of wet
