Chapter 6, Problem 6.107QP

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The number of moles of ${\text{O}}_{\text{2}}$ that were collected if total sample volume is $\text{0}\text{.480 L}$ and if the number of moles of ${\text{O}}_{\text{2}}$ remains same when oxygen is collected over ethanol instead of water is to be stated.

Concept introduction: The relationship between number of moles, pressure, volume and temperature for any gas is described by ideal gas law. The gas should behave as an ideal gas.

To determine: Number of moles of ${\text{O}}_{\text{2}}$ that were collected if total sample volume is $\text{0}\text{.480 L}$.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

To determine: If the number of moles of ${\text{O}}_{\text{2}}$ remains same when oxygen is collected over ethanol instead of water.
