- How does hydraulic fracturing differ from previously used techniques for the recovery of natural gas from the earth?arrow_forwardGiven 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_forwardIf an electric current is passed through molten sodium chloride, elemental chlorine gas is generated as the sodium chloride is decomposed. :math>2NaCl(1)2Na(s)+Cl2(g) at volume of chlorine gas measured at 767 mm Hg at 25 °C would be generated by complete decomposition of 1.25 g of NaCl?arrow_forward
- What volume (in liters) of O2, measured at standard temperature and pressure, is required to oxidize 0.400 mol of phosphorus (P4)? P4(s) + 5 O2(g) P4O10(s)arrow_forwardAmmonia gas is synthesized by combining hydrogen and nitrogen: 3 H2(g) + N2(g) 2 NH3(g) (a) If you want to produce 562 g of NH3, what volume of H2 gas, at 56 C and 745 mm Hg, is required? (b) Nitrogen for this reaction will be obtained from air. What volume of air, measured at 29 C and 745 mm Hg pressure, will be required to provide the nitrogen needed to produce 562 g of NH3? Assume the sample of air contains 78.1 mole % N2.arrow_forwardThe density of a certain gaseous fluoride of phosphorus is 3.93 g/L at STP. Calculate the molar mass of this fluoride and determine its molecular formula.arrow_forward
- Pyruvic acid, HC3H3O3, is involved in cell metabolism. It can be assayed for (that is, the amount of it determined) by using a yeast enzyme. The enzyme makes the following reaction go to completion: HC3H3O3(aq)C2H4O(aq)+CO2(g) If a sample containing pyruvic acid gives 21.2 mL of carbon dioxide gas, CO2, at 349 mmHg and 30C, how many grams of pyruvic acid are there in the sample?arrow_forwardWhat does “STP’ stand for? What conditions correspond to STP? What is the volume occupied by one mole of an ideal gas at STParrow_forwardA new boron hydride, BxHy, has been isolated. To find its molar mass, you measure the pressure of the gas in a known volume at a known temperature. The following experimental data are collected: Mass of gas = 12.5 mg Pressure of gas = 24.8 mm Hg Temperature = 25 C Volume of flask = 125 mL Which formula corresponds to the calculated molar mass? (a) B2H6 (b) B4H10 (c) B5H9 (d) B6H10 (e) Bl0H14arrow_forward
- You have two pressure-proof steel cylinders of equal volume, one containing 1.0 kg of CO and the other containing 1.0 kg of acetylene, C2H2. (a) In which cylinder is the pressure greater at 25 C? (b) Which cylinder contains the greater number of molecules?arrow_forwardAn organic compound contains C, H, N, and O. Combustion of 0.1023 g of the compound in excess oxygen yielded 0.2766 g CO2 and 0.0991 g H2O. A sample of 0.4831 g of the compound was analyzed for nitrogen by the Dumas method (see Exercise 129). At STP, 27.6 mL of dry N2 was obtained. In a third experiment, the density of the compound as a gas was found to be 4.02 g/L at 127C and 256 torr. What are the empirical and molecular formulas of the compound?arrow_forwardA 4.00 L flask contains 1.40 atm argon at 25°C. a) Calculate the moles of argon gas initially present in the flask. b) 20 mol Cl2 is added to the flask and the total pressure of gas changes. Explain the molecular-level reasons for this pressure change. c) Using your knowledge of gases and intermolecular forces, predict (and explain) whether the argon or the chlorine would behave more like an ideal gas.arrow_forward
