EBK INTRODUCTORY CHEMISTRY
- Earths atmosphere is approximately 80 N2 and 20 O2. If the total atmospheric pressure at sea level is about 14.7 lb/in2. where lb/in2 is pounds per square inch, a common but non-SI unit of pressure, what are the partial pressures of N2 and O2 in units lbs/in2?arrow_forwardThe density of liquid oxygen is about 1.4 g/cm3. Vaporized at 00C and 760 torr, this same 1.4 g occupies 980 cm3, an expansion of 700 times the liquids volume.arrow_forward5.15 Gas pressure can be expressed in units of mm Hg, atm, torr, and kPa. Convert these pressure values. (a) 722 mm Hg to atm, (b) 1.25 atm to mm Hg, (c) 542 mm Hg to torr, (d) 745 mm Hg to kPa, (e) 708 kPa to atmarrow_forward
- 5-115 Ammonium nitrite decomposes upon heating to form nitrogen gas and water vapor according to the following unbalanced chemical reaction: When a sample is decomposed in a test tube, 511 mL Of wet N2(g) is collected over water at 26°C and 745 torr total pressure. How many grams of dry NH4NO2(s) were initially decomposed? The vapor pressure of water at 26°C is 25.2 torr.arrow_forwardA chemist weighed out 5.14 g of a mixture containing unknown amounts of BaO(s) and CaO(s) and placed the sample in a 1.50-L flask containing CO2(g) at 30.0C and 750. torr. After the reaction to form BaCO3(s) and CaCO3(s) was completed, the pressure of CO2(g) remaining was 230. torr. Calculate the mass percentages of CaO(s) and BaO(s) in the mixture.arrow_forwardThe barometric pressure measured outside an airplane at 9 km (30,000 ft) was 266 torr. Calculate the pressure in kPa.arrow_forward
- 99 Pure gaseous nitrogen dioxide (NO2) cannot be obtained, because NO2dimerizes, or combines with itself, to produce a mixture of NO2 and N2O4. A particular mixture of NO2, and N2O4 has a density of 2.39 g/L at 50°C and 745 torr. What is the partial pressure of NO2 in this mixture?arrow_forwardA 19.9-mL volume of a hydrochloric acid solution reacts completely with a solid sample of magnesium carbonate, producing 183 mL of CO2 that is collected over water at 24.0C and 738 torr total pressure. The reaction is 2HCl(aq)+MgCO3(s)CO2(g)+H2O(l)+MgCl2(aq) What is the molarity of the HCl solution?arrow_forward5-118 Isooctane, which has a chemical formula C8H18 is the component of gasoline from which the term octane rating derives. (a) Write the balanced chemical equation for the combustion of isooctane. (b) The density of isooctane is 0.792 g/mL. How many kg of C02 are produced each year by the annual U.S. gasoline consumption of L? (c) What is the volume in liters of this CO2 at STP? (d) The chemical formula for isooctane can be represented by (CH3)3CCH2CH(CH3)2. Draw a Lewis structure of isooctane. (e) Another molecule with the same molecular formula is octane, which can be represented by: When comparing isooctane and octane, one structure is observed to have a boiling point of 99°C, while another is known to have a boiling point Of 125°C. Which substance, isooctane or octane, is expected to have the higher boiling point? (f) Determine whether isooctane or octane is expected to have the greater vapor pressure.arrow_forward
- Dining the Viking landings on Mars, the atmospheric pressure was determined to be on the average about 6.50 millibars (1 bar 0.987 atm). What is that pressure in torr and kPa?arrow_forwardIf 1 cubic foot-28.3 L-of air at common room conditions of 230C and 0.985 bar is adjusted to STP, what does the volume become?arrow_forwardA mixture at 33 °C contains H2at 325 torr. N;at 475 tore and O2at 650. torr. What is the total pressure of the gases in the system? Which gas contains the greatest number of moles?arrow_forward
