- If equal masses of O2 and N2 are placed in separate containers of equal volume at the same temperature, which of the following statements is true? If false, explain why it is false. (a) The pressure in the flask containing N2 is greater than that in the flask containing O2. (b) There are more molecules in the flask containing O2 than in the flask containing N2.arrow_forward47 HCl(g) reacts with ammonia gas, NH3(g), to form solid ammonium chloride. If a sample of ammonia occupying 250 mL at 21 C and a pressure of 140 torr is allowed to react with excess HCl, what mass of NH4Cl will form?arrow_forward93 The complete combustion of octane can be used as a model for the burning of gasoline: 2C8H18+25O216CO2+18H2O Assuming that this equation provides a reasonable model of the actual combustion process, what volume of air at 1.0 atm and 25°C must be taken into an engine to burn 1 gallon of gasoline? (The partial pressure of oxygen in air is 0.21 atm and the density of liquid octane is 0.70 g/mL.)arrow_forward
- A chemist weighed out 5.14 g of a mixture containing unknown amounts of BaO(s) and CaO(s) and placed the sample in a 1.50-L flask containing CO2(g) at 30.0C and 750. torr. After the reaction to form BaCO3(s) and CaCO3(s) was completed, the pressure of CO2(g) remaining was 230. torr. Calculate the mass percentages of CaO(s) and BaO(s) in the mixture.arrow_forwardNitrogen trifluoride is prepared by the reaction of ammonia and fluorine. 4 NH3(g) + 3 F2(g) 3 NH4F(s) + NF3(g) If you mix NH3 with F2 in the correct stoichiometric ratio, and if the total pressure of the mixture is 120 mm Hg, what are the partial pressures of NH3 and F2? When the reactants have been completely consumed, what is the total pressure in the flask? (Assume T is constant.)arrow_forwardButyl mercaptan, C4H9SH, has a very bad odor and is among the compounds added to natural gas to help detect a leak of otherwise odorless natural gas. In an experiment, you burn 95.0 mg of C4H9SH and collect the product gases (SO2, CO2, and H2O) in a 5.25-L flask at 25 C. What is the total gas pressure in the flask, and what is the partial pressure of each of the product gases?arrow_forward
- A flask is first evacuated so that it contains no gas at all. Then, 2.2 g of CO2 is introduced into the flask. On warming to 22 C, the gas exerts a pressure of 318 mm Hg. What is the volume of the flask?arrow_forward52 If tetraborane, B4H10, is treated with pure oxygen, it burns to give B2O3 and H2O: 2B4H10(s)+11O2(g)4B2O3(s)+10H2O(g) If a 0.050-g sample of tetraborane burns completely in O2, what will be the pressure of the gaseous water in a 4.25-L flask at 30.0 C?arrow_forwardHydrogen azide, HN3, decomposes on heating by the following unbalanced equation: HN3O(g)N2(g)+H2(g) If 3.0 atm of pure HN3(g) is decomposed initially, what is the final total pressure in the reaction container? What are the partial pressures of nitrogen and hydrogen gas? Assume the volume and temperature of the reaction container are constant.arrow_forward
