The great French chemist Antoine Lavoisier discovered the Law of Conservation of Mass in part by doing a famous experiment in 1775. In this experiment Lavoisier found that mercury(II) oxide, when heated, decomposed into liquid mercury and an invisible and previously unknown substance: oxygen gas. 1. Write a balanced chemical equation, including physical state symbols, for the decomposition of solid mercury(II) oxide (HgO) into liquid mercury and gaseous dioxygen. 2HgO + heat → 2Hg (1) + O2(g) 2. Suppose 40.0 mL of dioxygen gas are produced by this reaction, at a temperature of 110.0 °C and pressure of exactly 1 atm. Calculate the mass of mercury(II) oxide that must have reacted. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits. 0-0 18 X 0 x10 ? olo Ar BR

One way the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) tests for chloride contaminants in water is by titrating a sample of silver nitrate solution. Any chloride anions in solution will combine with the silver cations to produce bright white silver chloride precipitate. Suppose an EPA chemist tests a 200. mL sample of groundwater known to be contaminated with copper(II) chloride, which would react with silver nitrate solution like this: CuCl2(aq) + 2 AgNO3(aq) → 2 AgCl(s) + Cu(NO3)2(aq) The chemist adds 75.0 mM silver nitrate solution to the sample until silver chloride stops forming. He then washes, dries, and weighs the precipitate. He finds he has collected 6.3 mg of silver chloride. Calculate the concentration of copper(II) chloride contaminant in the original groundwater sample. Round your answer to 2 significant digits. mg L
Combustion of hydrocarbons such as undecane (C11H24) produces carbon dioxide, a "greenhouse gas." Greenhouse gases in the Earth's atmosphere can trap the Sun's heat, raising the average temperature of the Earth. For this reason there has been a great deal of international discussion about whether to regulate the production of carbon dioxide. 1. Write a balanced chemical equation, including physical state symbols, for the combustion of liquid undecane into gaseous carbon dioxide and gaseous water. 2. Suppose 0.310kg of undecane are burned in air at a pressure of exactly 1atm and a temperature of 18.0°C. Calculate the volume of carbon dioxide gas that is produced. Round your answer to 3 significant digits. = L
