Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The amount of moles
Concept Introduction:
The Mole and
•For convenience in considering reactions and calculating quantities, chemists think in terms of moles of substances.
•A mole is a quantity of particles defined as Avogadro’s number of particles or formula units of elements or compounds.
•The molecular or formula weight of a compound is the sum of the mass of all atoms in the formula.
•A mole also happens to be 22.4 L of an ideal gas under standard conditions, so 22.4 L of ideal gas represent one gram formula weight of the compound.

There are approximately 1022 molecules in a single medium-sized breath of air and approximately 1044 molecules in the atmosphere of the whole Earth. So how many breaths of air are there in the Earth’s atmosphere? How does this number compare with the number of molecules in a single breath?
A 1.23 g sample of acetic acid (HC2H3O2) was burned in excess oxygen in a bomb calorimeter. The calorimeter, which alone had a heat capacity of 2.67 kJ/°C, CONTAINED 745 G OF WATER. The temperature of the calorimeter and its contents increased from 23.77 °C to 27.95 °C. What is ΔH (in kJ) for the combustion of 1.00 mol of acetic acid is 60 g/mol.
Heliox is a helium‑oxygen mixture that may be used in scuba tanks for divers working at great depths. It is also used medically as a breathing treatment.
A 5.25 L tank holds helium gas at a pressure of 1734 psi. A second 5.25 L tank holds oxygen at a pressure of 461.0 psi. The two gases are mixed in a 5.25 L tank. If the temperature remains the same throughout the process, what is the pressure of the gas mixture in the tank? Assume ideal gas behavior.

- Which of the following correctly explains why the vapor pressure of water has to be included in the calculations? Some of the liquid water evaporates into the gas, and increases the total pressure generated by the trapped gas. As the H2(g) is bubbled up the reaction solution, some of the H2(g) molecules are solubilized by water in the aqueous solution, effectively decreasing the measured pressure above. The pressure contributed by the H2(g) is greater than the measured total pressure because of the contribution of partial pressure of water vapor. The pressure exerted by the evolved H2(g) is reduced because of the co-presence of water vapor, thus Pwater vapor has to be added to Pdry gas.
