5.29 What are the densities of the following gases at STP?
(a) CF2Cl2, (b)CO2, (c) HCl
Interpretation:
The densities of the following gases at STP have to be calculated.
Concept Introduction:
- An ideal gas has is a hypothetical gas that is formed by a few molecules so that, its density is low, and the intermolecular forces are null. The model of gas facilitates mathematical calculations to study gases.
- The molar mass is mass expressed in grams of a mol of substance. The molar mass can be expressed is the following way,
Where ni are the atoms number of element i that form the gas molecule gas and Ai is the atomic weight of element i.
- The ideal gas law can be expressed in the following way,
Where P is the gas pressure (atm), V is the gas volume (L), T is the gas absolute temperature (K), n is the moles number of the gas , R is the ideal gas constant (
In the STP conditions, the temperature is 273 K and the pressure is 1 atm.

- 62 Ammonium dinitramide (ADN), NH4N(NO2)2, was considered as a possible replacement for aluminium chloride as the oxidizer in the solid fuel booster rockets used to launch the space shuttle. When detonated by a spark, AND rapidly decomposes to produce a gaseous mixture of N2,O2, and H2O. (This is not a combustion reaction. The ADN is the only reactant.) The reaction releases a lot of heat, so the gases are initially formed at high temperature and pressure. The thrust of the rocket results mainly from the expansion of this gas mixture. Suppose a 2.3-kg sample of ADN is denoted and decomposes completely to give N2,O2, and H2O. If the resulting gas mixture expands until it reaches a temperature of 100°C and a pressure of 1.00 atm, what volume will it occupy?
