A balloon contains 0.950 mol of nitrogen gas and has a volume of 25.5 L. How many grams of N2 should be released from the balloo
lorasvet [2795]

Answer:

Mass released = 8.6 g

Explanation:

Provided information:

Starting moles of nitrogen= 0.950 mol

Starting volume = 25.5 L

Final nitrogen mass released = ?

Final volume = 17.3 L

Calculation:

Equation:

V₁/n₁ = V₂/n₂

25.5 L / 0.950 mol = 17.3 L/n₂

n₂ = 17.3 L× 0.950 mol/25.5 L

n₂ = 16.435 L.mol /25.5 L

n₂ = 0.644 mol

Starting mass of nitrogen:

Mass = moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.950 mol × 28 g/mol

Mass = 26.6 g

Ending mass of nitrogen:

Mass = moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.644 mol × 28 g/mol

Mass = 18.0 g

Mass released = initial mass - ending mass

Mass released = 26.6 g - 18.0 g

Mass released = 8.6 g

One type of breathalyzer employs a fuel cell to measure the quantity of alcohol in the breath. When a suspect blows into the bre
Alekssandra [3086]

Response:The ethanol percentage is 0.1093%

Explanation:

As given:

t = time = 10 s

I = current = 320 mA

F = Faraday's constant = 96485.3365 C mol⁻¹

n = number of electrons transferred = 4

Molecular weight of ethanol is 46 g/mol

Question: What is the percent (by volume) of ethanol in the driver's breath, %E =?

First, calculate the ethanol mass:

W=\frac{\frac{46}{4} *0.32*10}{96485.3365} =3.814x10^{-4} g

The moles of ethanol:

n_{ethanol} =3.814x10^{-4} g*\frac{1mol}{46} =8.291x10^{-6} moles

Applying the ideal gas law formula:

V=\frac{nRT}{P}

Here:

T = 26°C = 299 K

P = 1 atm

Substituting in the values:

V=\frac{8.291x10^{-6}*0.082*299 }{1} =2.033x10^{-4} L=0.2033mL

The percentage of ethanol:

E=\frac{0.2033}{186} *100=0.1093%

What is the emperical formula for a compound containing 68.3% lead, 10.6% sulfur, and the remainder oxygen? a. Pb2SO4 b. PbSO3 c
Tems11 [2777]

Solution:

The molecular formula is PbSO₄, indicating lead sulfate

Option c.

Explanation:

The percentage makeup shows that in 100 g of this compound, there are:

68.3 g of Pb, 10.6 g of S, and (100 - 68.3 - 10.6) = 21.1 g of O

To find the moles of each element, we divide by their molar masses:

68.3 g Pb / 207.2 g/mol = 0.329 moles Pb

10.6 g S / 32.06 g/mol = 0.331 moles S

21.1 g O / 16 g/mol = 1.32 moles O

Next, we find the mole ratio by dividing each by the smallest number of moles:

0.329 / 0.329 = 1 Pb

0.331 / 0.329 = 1 S

1.32 / 0.329 = 4 O

Thus, the molecular formula is PbSO₄, representing lead sulfate.
