2. Liquid oxygen is used in the steel industry, in the chemical industry, in hospitals, as rocket fuel, and for wastewater treatment as well as many other applications. In a hospital a tank of 0.0284-m3 volume is filled with 3.500 kg of liquid O2 that vaporized at -25°C. Will the pressure in the tank exceed the safety limit of the tank (104 kPa)?

The solubility of N, in blood can be a serious problem (the "bends") for divers breathing compressed air (78% N, by volume) at depths greater than 50. ft. Find the volume (in mL) of N2, measured at 25 °C and 1.00 atm, released per liter of blood when a diver at a depth 50. ft rises to the surface. The total pressure (water weight plus atmospheric pressure) on the diver at 50. ft is 2.47535 atm. (kH, for N, in water at 25 °C is 6.6 × 10^-4) Be sure to use the correct number of significant figures.
Consider the following situation: You have a 50 L tank of compressed air at 15 atm and 100 ºC. You then pass the compressed air through a "titanium getter" which contains fragments of hot titanium metal. The purpose of the "getter" is to remove oxygen gas from the sample as Ti reacts with oxygen to form solid TiO2 (known as titania). Once the purified air is passed through the getter is it cooled back down to 100 ºC and fills another 50 L storage tank. If air typically contains about 20% oxygen, what could the pressure in the storage tank be? Question 2 options: A) 12 atm B) 15 atm C) 18 atm D) 24 atm
For many purposes we can treat ammonia (NH3) a as an ideal gas at temperatures above its boiling point of -33. °C. 3 Suppose the pressure on a 1.0 m sample of ammonia gas at -2.00°C is reduced to one-third its initial value. Is it possible to change the temperature of the ammonia at the same time such that the volume of the gas doesn't change? If you answered yes, calculate the new temperature of the gas. Round your answer to the nearest °C. yes no °C x10 S

An experiment is performed to determine the volume of gas produced by the following reaction: 2HCl(aq) + Mg(s) MgCl2(aq) + H2(g) A. What is the maximum mass of Mg in g that could be reacted at 20oC temperature and 1.0atm, if the volume of the gas burette is 50mL? (Hint: Find moles of H2 using the ideal gas law; then, convert to g of Mg.) B. If the experiment were moved to a higher elevation and the pressure was decreased to 0.95 atm would the maximum amount of Mg increase or decrease? C. If 16mg of Mg were reacted, what is the volume of gas produced in this reaction? D. What is the solvent for this reaction? E. Would the HCl(aq) be considered a strong, weak, or non-electrolyte? F. Would the MgCl2(aq) be considered a strong, weak, or non-electrolyte?

For many purposes we can treat butane (C,H10) : as an ideal gas at temperatures above its boiling point of – 1. °C. Suppose the pressure on a 43.0 g sample of butane gas at 14.0°C is reduced to one-third its initial value. Oyes Is it possible to change the temperature of the butane at the same time such that the volume of the gas doesn't change? к10 no If you answered yes, calculate the new temperature of the gas. Round your answer to the nearest °C.
When limestone (solid CaCO3) is heated, it decomposes into lime (solid CaO) and carbon dioxide gas. This is an extremely useful industrial process of great antiquity, because powdered lime mixed with water is the basis for mortar and concrete - the lime absorbs CO₂ from the air and turns back into hard, durable limestone. Suppose a limekiln of volume 800. L is pressurized with carbon dioxide gas to 14.9 atm, and heated to 960.0 °C. When the amount of CO, has stopped changing, it is found that 3.96 kg of CaCO, have appeared. Calculate the pressure equilibrium constant K, this experiment suggests for the equilibrium between CaCO3 and CaO at 960.0 °C. Round your answer to 2 significant digits. Note for advanced students: it's possible there was some error in this experiment, and the value it suggests for K, does not match the accepted value. K = 3.07 P
11. (a) In a 20.0 L steel container, we have only 77.7 g of CO2(g), 66.6 g of N2(g), and O2(g). The temperature is 25.0 ◦C and the total pressure is 8.88 atm.

(b) The density of a sample of pure CH4(g) at a constant pressure of 1.00 atm is 0.666 g/L. What is the average speed, or root mean square speed, of the CH4(g) molecules in this sample? The molar masses of C and H are 12.01 and 1.01 g/mol.
