Question
Chapter 5, Problem 8RQ
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: The molar mass of the gas for the unknown molecular formula has to be determined.
Concept Introduction:
One method to determine the molar mass is from its measured density.
Other method to determine the molar mass is using Graham’s law of effusion.
Graham’s law of effusion states that the relative rates of effusion of two gases at the same temperature and pressure are given by the inverse ratio of the square roots of the masses of the gas particles.
Graham’s law of effusion can be given as,

A student finds a container of potassium metal containing an unknown amount of the reactive metal. The student decides to slowly add an excess of water to the container and trap any gas that is evolved. The student then reacts the trapped gas with an excess of gold (III) nitrate solution. This produces 22.57g of metallic gold. How much potassium metal was in the original container
When collecting a gas by bubbling it out over water, what do you have to remember about the pressure of the gas you collect?
Nothing. The water prevents atmospheric gases from mixing with your pure sample.
You must subtract the partial pressure of water vapor (which you look up in a chart)
You must do the stoichiometry of your gas reacted with water to form hydroxide ions in solution
You must know that it won't be anhydrous since it has reacted with water

- You have a gas, one of the three known phosphorus-fluorine compounds (PF3, PF3, and P2F4). To find out which, you have decided to measure its molar mass. (a) First, yon determine that the density of the gas is 5.60 g/L at a pressure of 0.971 atm and a temperature of 18.2 C. Calculate the molar mass and identify the compound. (b) To check the results from part (a), you decide to measure the molar mass based on the relative rales of effusion of the unknown gas and CO2. You find that CO2 effuses at a rate of 0.050 mol/min, whereas the unknown phosphorus fluoride effuses at a rate of 0.028 mol/min. Calculate the molar mass of the unknown gas based on these results.arrow_forwardperform stoichiometric ca1cu1uions for reactions involving gases as reactants or products.arrow_forwardWhen calcium carbonate is heated strongly, it evolves carbon dioxide gas.
