SA Sometimes in lab we collect the gas formed by a chemical reaction over water (see sketch at right). This makes it easy to isolate and measure the amount of gas produced. collected gas Suppose the H, gas evolved by a certain chemical reaction taking place at 50.0 °C is collected over water, using an chemical reaction water apparatus something like that in the sketch, and the final volume of gas in the collection tube is measured to be 89.2 mL. Sketch of a gas-collection apparatus Calculate the mass of H, that is in the collection tube. Round your answer to 2 significant digits. You can make any normal and reasonable assumption about the reaction conditions and the nature of the gases. De Explanation Check O 2021 McGraw Hill LLC. AII Rights Reserved.

Use the van der Waals equation of state to calculate the pressure of 3.70 mol of SO, at 499K in a 3.50 L vessel. Van der Waals constants can be found in the van der Waals constants table. P = atm Use the ideal gas equation to calculate the pressure under the same conditions. P = atm In a 15.50 L vessel, the pressure of 3.70 mol of SO, at 499 K is 9.77 atm when calculated using the ideal gas equation and 9.52 atm when calculated using the van der Waals equation of state. Why is the percent difference in the pressures calculated using the two different equations greater when the gas is in the 3.50 L vessel compared to the 15.50 L vessel? The attractive forces between molecules become less of a factor at the higher pressure in the 3.50L vessel. The molecular volume is a larger part of the total volume of the 3.50L vessel. The attractive forces between molecules become a greater factor at the higher pressure in the 3.50 L vessel. The molecular volume is a smaller part of the total volume…

Use the van der Waals equation of state to calculate the pressure of 2.00 mol of CH, at 469 K in a 5.90 L vessel. Van der Waals constants can be found in the van der Waals constants table. P = atm Use the ideal gas equation to calculate the pressure under the same conditions. P = atm Under these conditions, would you expect CH, or CCI, to deviate more from ideal behavior? Why? CCI because it occupies a smaller volume and it has greater dispersion forces between molecules. O CH, because it occupies a smaller volume and it has greater dispersion forces between molecules. CH because it occupies a smaller volume and it has smaller dispersion forces between molecules. CCI because it occupies a larger volume and it has smaller dispersion forces between molecules. O CH because it occupies a larger volume and it has smaller dispersion forces þetween molecules. O CCI, because it occupies a larger volume and it has greater dispersion forces between molecules.
