Many processes such as the fabrication of integrated circuits are carried out in a vacuum chamber to avoid reaction of the material with oxygen in the atmosphere. It is difficult to routinely lower the pressure in a vacuum chamber below 9.0 x 10-11 Torr. Part B Correct What fraction of the gas phase molecules initially present for 1.0 atm in the chamber are present at 1.0 × 10-10 Torr? Express fraction to two significant figures.

How would the use of a volatile liquid affect the measurement of a gas using open-ended manometers vs. closed-end manometers?

At elevated temperatures, sodium chlorate decomposes to produce sodium chloride and oxygen gas. A 0.8765-g sample of impure sodium chlorate was heated until the production of oxygen gas ceased. The oxygen gas collected over water occupied 57.2 mL at a temperature of 22C and a pressure of 734 torr. Calculate the mass percent of NaClO3 in the original sample. (At 22C the vapor pressure of water is 19.8 torr.)

One of the chemical controversies of the nineteenth century concerned the element beryllium (Be). Berzelius originally claimed that beryllium was a trivalent element (forming Be3+ ions) and that it gave an oxide with the formula Be2O3. This resulted in a calculated atomic mass of 13.5 for beryllium. In formulating his periodic table, Mendeleev proposed that beryllium was divalent (forming Be2+ ions) and that it gave an oxide with the formula Be2O3. This assumption gives an atomic mass of 9.0. In 1894, A. Combes (Comptes Rendus 1894, p. 1221) reacted beryllium with the anion C5H7O2and measured the density of the gaseous product. Combess data for two different experiments are as follows: I II Mass 0.2022 g 0.2224 g Volume 22.6 cm3 26.0 cm3 Temperature 13C 17C Pressure 765.2 mm Hg 764.6 mm If beryllium is a divalent metal, the molecular formula of the product will be Be(C5H7O2)2; if it is trivalent, the formula will be Be(C5H7O2)3. Show how Combess data help to confirm that beryllium is a divalent metal.

Sulfur dioxide reacts with oxygen in the presence of plati- num to give sulfur trioxide: 2 SO2(g) + O2(g) → 2 SO3(g) Suppose that at one stage in the reaction, 26.0 mol SO2, 83.0 mol O2, and 17.0 mol SO3 are present in the reaction vessel at a total pressure of 0.950 atm. Calculate the mole fraction of SO3 and its partial pressure.
