Chapter 5, Problem 5.70P

(1)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The pressure of chlorine gas produced is to be determined using ideal gas law (IGL).

Concept introduction:

The ideal gas equation is represented as follows:

  $PV=nRT$

Here, P is pressure, V is volume, n is number of moles, R is universal gas constant and T is temperature.

Also, number of moles is related to mass and molar mass as follows:

  $n=\frac{m}{M}$

Here, m is mass and M is molar mass.

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The pressure of chlorine gas produced is to be determined using the Van der Waal gas law.

Concept introduction:

The Vander Waals equation of gas is represented as follows:

  $[P+a\frac{n^2}{V^2}][V-nb]=nRT$

Here, P is pressure, n is number of moles, V is volume, R is Universal gas constant, T is temperature, a and b are constants.
