Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The number of molecules of nitrogen should be determined.
Concept Introduction:
When two non-reactive gases mix, the pressure, volume and temperature could be change. The new pressure, volume and temperature can be calculated with the help of ideal gas equation.
The ideal gas equation is given by:
PV = nRT.
(b)
Interpretation:
To calculate the total number of moles of both nitrogen and helium gas after gases are mixed.
Concept Introduction:
When two non-reactive gases mix, the pressure, volume and temperature could be change. The new pressure, volume and temperature can be calculated with the help of ideal gas equation.
(c)
Interpretation:
The beginning pressure of cylinder B having Only helium gas should be calculated.
Concept Introduction:

(d)
Interpretation:
The graph for the relationship between pressure and volume for the helium gas showing helium gas before and after the cylinders were connect should be drawn and also explain the answer by addressing variables P, V, n and T.

Introductory Chemistry: A Foundation
- A collapsed balloon is filled with He to a volume of 12.5 L at a pressure of 1.00 atm. Oxygen, O2, is then added so that the final volume of the balloon is 26 L with a total pressure of 1.00 atm. The temperature, which remains constant throughout, is 21.5 C. (a) What mass of He does the balloon contain? (b) What is the final partial pressure of He in the balloon? (c) What is the partial pressure of O2 in the balloon? (d) What is the mole fraction of each gas?arrow_forwardRaoul Pictet, the Swiss physicist who first liquefied oxygen, attempted to liquefy hydrogen. He heated potassium formate, KCHO2, with KOH in a closed 2.50-Lvessel. KCHO2(s)+KOH(s)K2CO3(s)+H2(g) If 75.0 g of potassium formate reacts in a 2.50-L vessel, which was initially evacuated, what pressure of hydrogen will be attained when the temperature is finally cooled to 25C? Use the preceding chemical equation and ignore the volume of solid product.arrow_forwardA piece of dry ice (CO2(s)) has a mass of 22.50 g. It is dropped into an evacuated 22.50-L flask. What is the pressure in the flask at -4C?arrow_forward
- Hydrogen gas is used in weather balloon because it is less expensive than Helium. Assume that 5.57 g of H2 is used to fill a weather balloon to an initial volume of 67 L at 1.04 atm. If the ballloon rises to an altitude where the pressure is 0.047 atm, what is its new volume? Assume that the temperature remains constant.arrow_forwardThe following figure shows three 1.00-L bulbs connected by valves. Each bulb contains argon gas with amounts proportional to the number of circles pictorially represented in the chamber. All three bulbs are maintained at the same temperature. Unless stated otherwise, assume that the valves connecting the bulbs are closed and seal the gases in their respective chambers. Assume also that the volume between each bulb is negligible. (a) Which bulb has the highest pressure? (b) If the pressure in bulb A is 0.500 atm, what is the pressure in bulb C? (c) If the pressure in bulb A is 0.500 atm, what is the total pressure? (d) If the pressure in bulb A is 0.500 arm, and the valve between bulbs A and B is opened, redraw the figure shown above to accurately represent the gas atoms in all three bulbs. What is P A+P B+P C? Compare your answer in part (d) to that in part (c). (e) Follow the instructions of part (d) but now open only the valve between bulbs B and C.arrow_forward
