- 5-114 Carbon dioxide gas, saturated with water vapor, can be produced by the addition of aqueous acid to calcium carbonate based on the following balanced net ionic equation: (a) How many moles of wet CO (g), collected at 60.°C and 774 torr total pressure, are produced by the complete reaction of 10.0 g of CaCO3 with excess acid? (b) What volume does this wet CO2 occupy? (c) What volume would the CO2 occupy at 774 torr if a desiccant (a chemical drying agent) were added to remove the water? The vapor pressure of water at 60.°C is 149.4 mm Hg.arrow_forwardA person exhales about 5.8 102 L of carbon dioxide per day (at STP). The carbon dioxide exhaled by an astronaut is absorbed from the air of a space capsule by reaction with lithium hydroxide, LiOH. 2LiOH(s)+CO2(g)Li2CO3(s)+H2O(l) How many grams of lithium hydroxide are required per astronaut per day?arrow_forward59 During a collision, automobile air bags are inflated by the N2 gas formed by the explosive decomposition of sodium azide, NaN3: 2NaN32Na+3N2 What mass of sodium azide would be needed to inflate a 30.0-L bag to a pressure of 1.40 atm at 25 C?arrow_forward
- Liquid oxygen was first prepared by heating potassium chlorate, KClO3, in a closed vessel to obtain oxygen at high pressure. The oxygen was cooled until it liquefied. 2KClO3(s)2KCl(s)+3O2(g) If 171 g of potassium chlorate reacts in a 2.70-L vessel, which was initially evacuated, what pressure of oxygen will be attained when the temperature is finally cooled to 25C? Use the preceding chemical equation and ignore the volume of solid product.arrow_forwardA typical barometric pressure in Kansas City is 740 torr. What is this pressure in atmospheres, in millimeters of mercury, and in kilopascals?arrow_forwardRaoul Pictet, the Swiss physicist who first liquefied oxygen, attempted to liquefy hydrogen. He heated potassium formate, KCHO2, with KOH in a closed 2.50-Lvessel. KCHO2(s)+KOH(s)K2CO3(s)+H2(g) If 75.0 g of potassium formate reacts in a 2.50-L vessel, which was initially evacuated, what pressure of hydrogen will be attained when the temperature is finally cooled to 25C? Use the preceding chemical equation and ignore the volume of solid product.arrow_forward
- 47 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_forwardPotassium peroxide is used to absorb the CO2 produced by the people in a space vehicle. 2K2O2(s)+2CO2(g)2K2CO3(s)+O2(g)If a person at rest exhales 3.0 L of air per minute and CO2 is 3.4% (by volume) of exhaled air, how many grams of K2O2 are needed per person for a five-day trip. Assume a temperature of 250 and 728 mm Hg pressure.arrow_forwardAs 1 g of (lie radioactive element radium decays over 1 year. k produces 1.161018 alpha particles (helium nuclei). Each alpha particle becomes an atom of helium gas. What is the pressure ¡n pascal of the helium gas produced if it occupies a volume of 125 mL at a temperature of 25 C?arrow_forward
- A 275-mL sample of CO gas is collected over water at 31C and 755 mmHg. If the temperature of the gas collection apparatus rises to 39C, what is the new volume of the sample? Assume that the barometric pressure does not change.arrow_forwardA typical barometric pressure in Denver, Colorado, is 615 mm Hg. What is this pressure in atmospheres and kilopascals?arrow_forwardA 21.4-mL volume of hydrochloric acid reacts completely with a solid sample of MgCO3. The reaction is 2HCl(aq)+MgCO3(s)CO2(g)+H2O(l)+MgCl2(aq) The volume of CO2 formed is 159 mL at 23C and 731 mmHg. What is the molarity of the HCl solution?arrow_forward
