- 5.19 A sample of CO2 gas has a pressure of 56.5 mm Hg in a 125-mL flask. The sample is transferred to a new flask, where it has a pressure of 62.3 mm Hg at the same temperature. What is the volume of the new flask?arrow_forwardIf equal masses of O2 and N2 are placed in separate containers of equal volume at the same temperature, which of the following statements is true? If false, explain why it is false. (a) The pressure in the flask containing N2 is greater than that in the flask containing O2. (b) There are more molecules in the flask containing O2 than in the flask containing N2.arrow_forwardA study of climbers who reached the summit of Mount Everest without supplemental oxygen showed that the partial pressures of O2 and CO2 in their lungs were 35 mm Mg and 7.5 mm Hg, respectively. The barometric pressure at the summit was 253 mm Hg. Assume the lung gases are saturated with moisture at a body temperature of 37 C [which means the partial pressure of water vapor in the lungs is P(H2O) = 47.1 mm Hg]. If you assume the lung gases consist of only O2, N2, CO2, and H2O, what is the partial pressure of N2?arrow_forward
- When acetylene, C2H2, is burned in oxygen, carbon dioxide and steam are formed. A sample of acetylene with a volume of 7.50 L and a pressure of 1.00 atm is burned in excess oxygen at 225C. The products are transferred without loss to a 10.0-L. flask at the same temperature. (a) Write a balanced equation for the reaction. (b) What is the total pressure of the products in the 10.0-L flask? (c) What is the partial pressure of each of the products in the flask?arrow_forwardButyl mercaptan, C4H9SH, has a very bad odor and is among the compounds added to natural gas to help detect a leak of otherwise odorless natural gas. In an experiment, you burn 95.0 mg of C4H9SH and collect the product gases (SO2, CO2, and H2O) in a 5.25-L flask at 25 C. What is the total gas pressure in the flask, and what is the partial pressure of each of the product gases?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
