A sample of 3.73 mol of argon is confined at low pressure in a volume at a temperature of 61 C. Describe
quantitatively the effects of each of the following changes on the pressure, the average kinetic energy per
molecule in the gas, and the root-mean-square speed.
(a) The temperature is increased to 177 °C.
(b) The volume is tripled.
(c) The amount of argon is decreased to 1.96 mol.
Give each answer as a decimal factor of the form: new value = factor old value. A factor of 1 means no

(a) Compute the root-mean-square speed of H2 molecules in hydrogen at a temperature of 300 K.(b) Repeat the calculation for SF6 molecules in gaseous sulfur hexafluoride at 300 K.
A bottle contains 1.0 mol He(g) and a second bottle contains 1.0 mol Ar(g) at the same temperature. At that temperature, the root mean square speed of He is 1477 m⋅s−1 and that of Ar is 467 m⋅s−1. What is the ratio of the number of He atoms in the first bottle to the number of Ar atoms in the second bottle having these speeds? Assume that both gases behave ideally.

- Given that a sample of air is made up of nitrogen, oxygen, and argon in the mole fractions 0.78 N2, 0.21 O2, and 0.010 Ar, what is the density of air at standard temperature and pressure?arrow_forwardOne of the chemical controversies of the nineteenth century concerned the element beryllium (Be). Berzelius originally claimed that beryllium was a trivalent element (forming Be3+ ions) and that it gave an oxide with the formula Be2O3. This resulted in a calculated atomic mass of 13.5 for beryllium. In formulating his periodic table, Mendeleev proposed that beryllium was divalent (forming Be2+ ions) and that it gave an oxide with the formula Be2O3. This assumption gives an atomic mass of 9.0. In 1894, A. Combes (Comptes Rendus 1894, p. 1221) reacted beryllium with the anion C5H7O2and measured the density of the gaseous product. Combess data for two different experiments are as follows: I II Mass 0.2022 g 0.2224 g Volume 22.6 cm3 26.0 cm3 Temperature 13C 17C Pressure 765.2 mm Hg 764.6 mm If beryllium is a divalent metal, the molecular formula of the product will be Be(C5H7O2)2; if it is trivalent, the formula will be Be(C5H7O2)3.
