The compound Al4C3 decomposes when heated according to the equation below. Al4C3 (s) + 12 H₂O (1)→ 4 Al(OH)3 (s) + 3 CH4 (9) An impure sample of material contains a small amount of Al4C3. The sample is heated and the gas produced collected by downward displacement of water. A total of 216.0 ml of gas is collected at a temperature of 22.0°C when the atmospheric pressure is 730.0 torr. [The vapor pressure of water at 22.0°C is 19.83 torr.] Calculate the number of grams of Al4C3 present in the impure sample.

5) Consider the reaction below. Co(g) + 2H¿(g) → CH,OH(g) 1.5 L of hydrogen gas and 3.5 L of carbon monoxide gas, both at 45 °C and 1.28 atm are in separate containers separated by a value. When the value is opened the two gases mix and react, according to the above reaction. a) Please determine the limiting reagent and the theoretical yield. b) If the percent yield is 67.3%, what is the concentration of the product in the final reaction mixture? c) What is the partial pressure of the product in the final reaction mixture?
The human body burns glucose (C6H12O6) for energy according to this chemical reaction: C6H12O6+6O2→ 6CO2+6H2O The products of the reaction are carbon dioxide CO2 and water H2O Interestingly, all of the carbon dioxide and much of the water exits the body through the lungs: on every breath, the average person exhales 500.mL of air, which is typically enriched to 4% CO2 and 5% water vapor by volume. In short, when a person loses weight by dieting, the weight that is lost actually departs his body as a gas, every time he exhales. Each kilogram of body fat lost requires exhaling about 2.9kg of carbon dioxide. Calculate how many breaths it takes an average person to "exhale" 0.50kg of fat. Round your answer to the nearest thousand. You'll need to know that the density of CO2 is 2.0 kg/m^3 .
a 2.802g sample of an unknown pure metal (M) is added to a 0.2 L solution of 2 mol/L H2SO4(aq). The metal reacts with the acid until the metal is completely gone to form M3+(aq) ion in the solution and produces hydrogen gas that is collected. The hydrogen gas that is collected over water that is isolated from the reaction has a volume of 0.82 L at 25 degrees Celsius and a total pressure of 704.0 mmHg. How many moles of H2(g) are produced? Write a balanced equation for the reaction of M with H2SO4(aq). What is the identity of metal M?
Questions 7 through 11 refer to the information and diagram below. 2 NO2(g) > N204(g) NO2(8) reacts to form N20a(g) according to the equation above. A pure sample of NO2(g) is placed into a rigid, evacuated 0.500 L container. The initial pressure of the NO2(g) is 960 torr. The temperature is held constant until the NO2(g) reaches equilibrium with its product. The figure below shows how the pressure of the system changes while reaching equilibrium. Pressure (torr) 960 760 Time 8. The pressure vs. time curve can be used to evaluate (A) only the value of Q. (B) only the equilibrium constant from the horizontal part. (C) only the kinetics of the reaction from the decreasing part. (D) the kinetics of the reaction from the decreasing part and the equilibrium constant from the horizontal part.
An old rusted, unlabeled gas tank was found in Smith Hall during its renovation a couple of years ago. The pressure gauge on the tank indicated an internal pressure of 1,400 mmHg at room temperature (20.1 degrees Celsius). A sample of the gas was removed from the tank. This gas sample was found to have a density of 4.7 g/L when measured at room temperature. Based on this information, what is the molar mass of the unknown gas

The zinc in a copper-plated penny will dissolve in hydrochloric acid if the copper coating is filed down in several spots (so that the hydrochloric acid can get to the zinc). The reaction between the acid and the zinc is: 2H+(aq) + Zn(s) → H2(g) + Zn2+(aq) When the zinc in a certain penny dissolves, the total volume of gas collected over water at 25 ∘C was 0.959 L at a total pressure of 750 mmHg . What mass of Hydrogen was collected?
A student experimentally determines the gas law constant, R, by reacting a small piece of magnesium with excess hydrochloric acid and then collecting the hydrogen gas over water in a eudiometer. Based L-atm on experimentally collected data, the student calculates R to equal 0.0832 mol·K L-atm Ideal gas law constant from literature: 0.08206 mol·K (a) Determine the percent error for the student's R-value. Percent error = % (b) For the statements below, identify the possible source(s) of error for this student's trial. The student notices a large air bubble in the eudiometer after collecting the hydrogen gas, but does not dislodge it. The student does not clean the zinc metal with sand paper. The student does not equilibrate the water levels within the eudiometer and the beaker at the end of the reaction. The water level in the eudiometer is 1-inch above the water level in the beaker. The student uses the barometric pressure for the lab to calculate R.
