EXP 3- Determination of universal gas constant
Thermal decomposition reaction of KCIO3 can be used
to determine the universal gas constant.
2KCIO:(s)
2KCI(s) + 302(g)
MnO2 (catalyst)
Firstly, KCIO3 and MnO2 (catalyst) is placed in a clean
and dry test tube, and it is weighed as 15.92 g. While
heating the test tube, thermal decomposition reaction
occurs and all the evolved O2(g) is collected in a flask
filled with water at 759 mmHg and 20°C. Because of
evolved O2(g), 250 mL water is transferred from the
flask to a beaker. Additionally, the weight of test tube
after heating is determined as 15.60 g. (Note: The
partial pressure of water at 20°C is 17.5 mmHg.)
(a) Calculate experimental value of the universal gas constant by using the information given
above.
(b) Compare the theoretical and the experimental values of gas constant and calculate the
percentage error in the experiment.

EXP 4- Diffusion
(A) Indicate following statements as True (T or False (F):
(a) Higher the molar mass of a gas, faster its diffusion is.
(b) Graham's law states that the rate of diffusion or effusion of a gas is inversely
proportional to the square root of its molar mass.
(c) When NH3(g) and HCI(g) react to form NH,CI(s), a blue precipitate is observed.
(d) Diffusion is the process whereby gaseous atoms and molecules are transferred from
regions of relatively low concentration to regions of relatively high concentration.
(e) The diffusion rate of a gas depends on the increase or decrease in concentration from
one point to another (concentration gradient), the amount of surface area available for
diffusion, and the distance the gas particles must travel.
(B) If CH.(g) and C,Hs(g) are released simultaneously at the left and right ends of a glass tube
with 50 cm length, respectively, at what distance from the left end of the tube will they meet?
50cm
