Chapter 20, Problem 29PS
In methane hydrate the methane molecule is trapped in a cage of water molecules. Describe the structure: (a) how many water molecules make up the cage, (b) how many hydrogen bonds are involved, and (c) how many faces does the cage have? (Figure 20 16.)
(a) Methane hydrate burns as methane gas escapes from the solid hydrate.
(b) Methane hydrate consists of a lattice of water molecules with methane molecules trapped in the cavity.

Some Chem 16.1 students were tasked to perform the ideal gas experiment with some modifications.
Instead of magnesium ribbon, the students were to use 0.029 g of aluminum foil. They prepared the
eudiometer by adding 6M HCI and filling it with water to the brim. Once the setup was complete, they
performed the experiment. Note that the aluminum was completely consumed in the reaction. From the
experiment, it was found that the external pressure was 1.05 atm at 30.0 °C, and the volume of the air
inside the eudiometer was 33.5 mL. The water level inside the eudiometer is 4.15 cm below the surface
of the water level outside. Given these measurements and the following constants, answer the proceeding
questions.
At 30.0°C, Pvapor = 31.8 mmHg
