b) Connecting a physical protocol to quantitative expressions: In medical treatments, you often never work with pure oxygen. [In fact, breathing high concentrations of oxygen is toxic and can lead to hyperoxia]. Suppose you would like to prepare a mixture of nitrogen and oxygen gases. You have a 1.0-L flask of N₂(g) stored at 2.1 bar and T = 50.°C and a 2.0-L flask of O₂ (g) stored at 1.0 bar and T = 20.°C. Assuming ideal gas behavior, what is the final pressure (in bars) if you combine the two flasks into a 5.0-L flask at room temperature?

Hot gaes Expanding A mixture hot gases expands, changing volume from 2.45 L to 6.82 L, against a constant pressure of 3.22 atm. The P-Vwork involved is Latm .
A syringe containing 1.47 mLmL of oxygen gas is cooled from 94.5 ∘C∘C to 0.8 ∘C∘C. What is the final volume Vf of oxygen gas?

Underwater, the pressure increases by 1 bar for every 10 m of depth. When a scuba diver breathes pressurized air in which the partial pressure of N2(g) exceeds 4 bar, the result is nitrogen narcosis, which is similar to alcohol intoxication. What is the maximum mole percent of N2 in an air mixture that could be used by divers at depths up to 85 m below sea level without undue risk of nitrogen narcosis?
1.25 L container holds a stoichiometric mixture* of ethene (CaH4), ethane (CaH6) and oxygen at a total pressure of 1.55 atm and a temperature of 24.5 °C. The mixture is ignited and completely combusts to form carbon dioxide and water. The water is removed from the vessel, leaving only carbon dioxide at a total pressure of 0.926 am at the same conditions. What is the mole fraction of oxygen in the original mixture?
One type of gas mixture used in anesthesiologyis a 50%/50% mixture (by volume) of nitrous oxide (N2O) and oxygen(O2), which can be premixed and kept in a cylinder for later use.Because these two gases don’t react chemically at or below 2000 psi, attypical room temperatures they form a homogeneous single gas phase,which can be considered an ideal gas. If the temperature drops below-6C, however, N2O may begin to condense out of the gas phase. Thenany gas removed from the cylinder will initially be nearly pure O2; asthe cylinder empties, the proportion of O2 will decrease until the gascoming from the cylinder is nearly pure N2O. In another test, the valve of a 500 L cylinder full of the gas mixture at 2000 psi (gauge pressure) is opened wide so that the gas rushes out of the cylinder very rapidly. Why might some N2O condense during this process? (a) This is an isochoric process in which the pressure decreases, so the temperature also decreases. (b) Because of the rapid expansion, heat is…
A 0.210 g sample of a metal, M, reacts completely with sulfuric acid according to the reaction M(s)+H2SO4(aq)⟶MSO4(aq)+H2(g) A volume of 219 mL of hydrogen gas is collected over water; the water level in the collecting vessel is the same as the outside level. Atmospheric pressure is 1.0079 bar and the temperature is 25 °C. The vapor pressure of water at 25 °C is 0.03167 bar. Calculate the molar mass of the metal.
Xenon and helium are both ideal, monatomic gases, but they have very different molar masses (Mxenon = 33*Mhelium). If you have 1 mole of each gas and the gases are at the same temperature, which one of the following statements is true? They both have the same internal energy, but xenon has a lower root-mean-square speed than helium. They both have the same internal energy and root-mean-square speed. They both have the same root-mean-square speed, but xenon has a greater internal energy than helium. They both have the same internal energy, but helium has a lower root-mean-square speed than xenon. They both have the same root-mean-square speed, but helium has a greater internal energy than xenon.
Two flasks of equal volume are connected by a narrow tube (of negligible volume). Initially, both flasks are at 27°C and contain 0.70 moles of hydrogen gas, the pressure being 50,000 Pa. One of the flasks is then immersed in a hot oil bath at 127°C, while the other is kept at 27°C. Calculate the final pressure of the system, in Pa. Calculate the final number of moles of hydrogen gas in the flask that was immersed in the oil bath. R = 0.08205 L atm mol-¹ K-₁ T(K) = T (°C) + 273.15
