Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The number of molecules of nitrogen should be determined.
Concept Introduction:
When two non-reactive gases mix, the pressure, volume and temperature could be change. The new pressure, volume and temperature can be calculated with the help of ideal gas equation.
The ideal gas equation is given by:
PV = nRT.
(b)
Interpretation:
To calculate the total number of moles of both nitrogen and helium gas after gases are mixed.

(d)
Interpretation:
The graph for the relationship between pressure and volume for the helium gas showing helium gas before and after the cylinders were connect should be drawn and also explain the answer by addressing variables P, V, n and T.

- Raoul Pictet, the Swiss physicist who first liquefied oxygen, attempted to liquefy hydrogen. He heated potassium formate, KCHO2, with KOH in a closed 2.50-Lvessel. KCHO2(s)+KOH(s)K2CO3(s)+H2(g) If 75.0 g of potassium formate reacts in a 2.50-L vessel, which was initially evacuated, what pressure of hydrogen will be attained when the temperature is finally cooled to 25C? Use the preceding chemical equation and ignore the volume of solid product.arrow_forwardIf equal masses of O2 and N2 are placed in separate containers of equal volume at the same temperature, which of the following statements is true? If false, explain why it is false. (a) The pressure in the flask containing N2 is greater than that in the flask containing O2. (b) There are more molecules in the flask containing O2 than in the flask containing N2.arrow_forwardYou have two pressure-proof steel cylinders of equal volume, one containing 1.0 kg of CO and the other containing 1.0 kg of acetylene, C2H2.

Calculate this pressure in atm and kPa.arrow_forwardYou have an equimolar mixture of the gases SO2 and O2, along with some He, in a container fitted with a piston. The density of this mixture at STP is 1.924 g/L. Assume ideal behavior and constant temperature and pressure. a. What is the mole fraction of He in the original mixture? b. The SO2 and O2 react to completion to form SO3. What is the density of the gas mixture after the reaction is complete?arrow_forward5.19 A sample of CO2 gas has a pressure of 56.5 mm Hg in a 125-mL flask. The sample is transferred to a new flask, where it has a pressure of 62.3 mm Hg at the same temperature. What is the volume of the new flask?arrow_forward
- Diborane reacts with O2 to give boric oxide and water vapor. B2H6(g) + 3 O2(g) → B2O3(s) + 3 H2O(g) 1.
