Question
Chapter 12.6, Problem 7PPB
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Phase diagram of the substance has to be drawn using the given data.
Concept Introduction:
- Phase change refers to change in physical state of a substance. If a substance undergoes change in its physical state from one physical form to another physical form, then the substance is said to be undergone phase change.
- Phase diagram illustrates temperature and pressure conditions at which a substance can remain stable at a certain physical state. The distinct separation between the different phases of a system is known as phase boundary.
- Boiling point of a substance refers to the temperature at which a liquid substance undergoes phase change to vapor phase.
- Melting point of a substance refers to the temperature at which a solid substance changes its phase to liquid.
- Triple point corresponds to certain temperature and pressure region in the phase diagram at which all the phases of the substance coexist in equilibrium.

Photochemical smog is formed in part by the action of light on nitrogen dioxide. The wavelength of radiation absorbed by NO2 in this reaction is 197 nm.(a) Draw the Lewis structure of NO2 and sketch its π molecular orbitals.(b) When 1.56 mJ of energy is absorbed by 3.0 L of air at 20 °C and 0.91 atm, all the NO2 molecules in this sample dissociate by the reaction shown. Assume that each absorbed photon leads to the dissociation (into NO and O) of one NO2 molecule. What is the proportion, in parts per million, of NO2 molecules in this sample? Assume that the sample behaves ideally.
Correct each molecule in the drawing area below so that it has the skeletal ("line") structure it would have if it were
dissolved in a 0.1 M aqueous solution of HCI.
If there are no changes to be made, check the No changes box under the drawing area.

An expression for the root mean square velocity, vrms, of a gas was derived. Using Maxwell’s velocity distribution, one can also calculate the mean velocity and the most probable velocity (mp) of a collection of molecules. The equations used for these two quantities are vmean=(8RT/πM)1/2 and vmp=(2RT/M)1/2 These values have a fixed relationship to each other.(a) Arrange these three quantities in order of increasing magnitude.(b) Show that the relative magnitudes are independent of the molar mass of the gas.(c) Use the smallest velocity as a reference for establishing the order of magnitude and determine the relationship between the larger and smaller values.

- The reaction of solid dimethylhydrazine, (CH3)2N2H2, and liquefied dinitrogen tetroxide, N2O4, has been investigated for use as rocket fuel. The reaction produces the gases carbon dioxide (CO2), nitrogen (N2), and water vapor (H2O), which are ejected in the exhaust gases. In a controlled experiment, solid dimethylhydrazine was reacted with excess dinitrogen tetroxide, and the gases were collected in a closed balloon until a pressure of 2.50 atm and a temperature of 400.0 K were reached.(a) What are the partial pressures of CO2, N2, and H2O?(b) When the CO2 is removed by chemical reaction, what are the partial pressures of the remaining gases?arrow_forwardOne liter of chlorine gas at 1 atm and 298 K reacts completely with 1.00 L of nitrogen gas and 2.00 L of oxygen gas at the same temperature and pressure.
