(E) We know that Pgas = Pbar + ΔP with Pbar = 748.2 mmHg. We are told that ΔP = 7.8 mmHg. Thus, Pgas = 748.2 mmHg + 7.8 mmHg = 756.0 mmHg.

Hence, this problem is almost a repetition of Practice Example 6-1. hHg=748.2 mmHg – 739.6 mmHg=8.6 mmHg. Again we have g hg dg=g hHg dHg.

INTEGRATIVE EXERCISE (M) First, convert the available data to easier units.
A.
101.3×103 Pa × (1 atm/1.013×105 Pa) = 1 atm, and 25 °C = 298 K. Then, assume that we have a 1 L container of this gas, and determine how many moles of gas are present: n=
PV (1.00 atm)(1.00 L) = = 0.0409 mol. RT 0.08206 L atm K 1 298 K
Knowing the density of the gas (1.637 g/L) and its volume (1 L) gives us the mass of 1 L of gas, or 1.637 g. Therefore, the molar mass of this gas is: (1.637 g / 0.0409 mol) = 40.03 g/mol Now, determine the number of moles of C and H to ascertain the empirical formula: mol C: 1.687 g CO 2 mol H: 0.4605 g H 2 O

Dividing by the smallest value (0.0383 mol C), we get a H:C ratio of 1.33:1, or 4:3. Therefore, the empirical formula is C3H4, which has a molar mass of 40.07, which is essentially the same as the molar mass calculated. Therefore, the actual formula is also C3H4.

g H: 0.007727 mol H
14.01 g N = 0.01203 g N 1 mol N Therefore, the mass of O is determined by subtracting the sum of the above masses from the mass of the compound: g N: 0.0008589 mol N
g O: 0.1023 (0.04126 0.007804 0.01203) 0.04121 g O 1 mol O mol O: 0.04121 g O = 0.002576 mol O 16.0 g O
To determine the empirical formula, all of the calculated moles above should be divided by the smallest value. Doing so will give the following ratios: C: 0.003435/0.0008589 = 4 H: 0.007727/0.0008589 = 9 N: 1 O: 0.002576/0.0008589 = 3 The empirical formula is C4H9NO3, and has a molar mass of 119.14 g/mol. To determine the actual formula, we have to calculate its molecular mass. We know the density at a given volume and therefore we need to find out the number of moles. Before that, we should convert the experimental conditions to more convenient units. T = 127 °C + 273 = 400 K, and P = 748 mm Hg/760 mm Hg = 0.9842 atm. n=

MM = g/mol = 3.57 g/0.02999 = 119 g/mol
Therefore, the empirical and molecular formulas are the same, being C4H9NO3.

(M) At the higher elevation of the mountains, the atmospheric pressure is lower than at the beach. However, the bag is virtually leak proof; no gas escapes. Thus, the gas inside the bag expands in the lower pressure until the bag is filled to near bursting. (It would have been difficult to predict this result. The temperature in the mountains is usually lower than at the beach. The lower temperature would decrease the pressure of the gas.)

When the diver rises to the surface, she rises to a pressure of 1.0 atm. Since the pressure is about one fourth of the pressure below the surface, the gas in her lungs attempts to expand to four times the volume of her lungs. It is quite likely that her lungs would burst.

Of course, the gas pressure increases proportionally to the increase in the mass of gas, because the mass is proportional to the number of moles of gas. 12.5 g P= 762 mmHg = 953 mmHg 10.0 g Now we compute the pressure resulting from increasing the temperature. 62 + 273 K P= 953 mmHg = 1.07 103 mmHg 25 + 273 K

(E) The basic ideal law relationship applies here. Molar volume is the amount of volume that one mole of a gas occupies. If PV=nRT, then molar volume is V/n, and the relationship rearranges to: V R T = Vm = n P (a) Vm = (298 K·0.08206 L·atm·K-1)/1.00 atm = 24.4 L·mol-1 (b) Patm = 748 mmHg / 760 mmHg = 0.978 atm Vm = (373 K·0.08206 L·atm·K-1)/0.978 atm = 31.3 L·mol-1
34.
(E) The molar volume formula given above can be rearranged to solve for T. T = (P/R)·Vm = (2.5 atm/0.08205 L·atm·K-1)×22.4 L·mol-1 = 682 K

(b/c) Density should be related to average molar mass. We expect the average molar mass of air to be between the molar masses of its two principal constituents, N 2 (28.0 g/mol) and O 2 (32.0 g/mol). The average molar mass of normal air is approximately 28.9 g/mol. Expired air would be made more dense by the presence of more CO 2 (44.0 g/mol) and less dense by the presence of more H 2 O (18.0 g/mol). The change might be minimal. In fact, it is, as the following calculation shows.

Since the average molar mass of expired air is less than the average molar mass of ordinary air, expired air is less dense than ordinary air. Calculating the densities: (28.7 g/mol)(1.00 atm) d(expired air) = 1.13 g/L (0.08206 L atm/K mol)(310 K) d(ordinary air) 1.14 g/L 63.
(E) 1.00 g H2 0.50 mol H2 1.00 g He 0.25 mol He Adding 1.00 g of He to a vessel that only contains 1.00 g of H2 results in the number of moles of gas being increased by 50%. Situation (b) best represents the resulting mixture, as the volume has increased by 50%
64.
(E) The answer is (b), because the volume at 275 K with 1.5 times as many atoms is roughly 4/3 larger than the drawing.

(M) In this problem, you don’t need to explicitly solve for moles of gas, since you are looking at the relationship between pressure and volume. 4.0 atm 1.0 L = 4.0 PV mol O 2 = = RT RT RT 2.0 atm 2.0 L = 4.0 PV mol N 2 = = RT RT RT total mol. of gas = 8.0/RT
Therefore, nRT 8.0 RT P= = = 4.0 atm V RT 2.0 66.
(M) Like the above problem, you also don’t need to explicitly solve for moles of each gas to get the total moles, because you are ultimately looking at pressure/volume relationships:

Chapter 6: Gases
Since effusion is loosely defined as movement of a fixed number of atoms per unit time, and since in this problem we are looking at the time it takes for the same number of moles of both Ne and He to effuse, the above equation can be rearranged as follows: time He MM He molNe molHe = timeNe timeHe time Ne MM Ne x = 22 h

Integrative and Advanced Exercises 91. (E) A millimeter of mercury is 1/760 of an atmosphere of pressure at sea level. The density of mercury (13.5951 g/cm3) needs to be included in this definition and, because the density of mercury, like that of other liquids, varies somewhat with temperature, the pressure will vary if the density varies. The acceleration due to gravity (9.80665 m/s2) needs to be included because pressure is a force per unit area, not just a mass per unit area, and this force depends on the acceleration applied to the given mass, i.e., force = mass × acceleration. 92.

(M) We know that the sum of the moles of gas in the two bulbs is 1.00 moles, and that both bulbs have the same volume, and are at the same pressure because they are connected. Therefore, n1T1 =n 2 T2 n1 T2 350 K = = 1.556 n 2 T1 225 K n1 =1.556 n 2
Therefore, n2(1.556) + n2 = 1.00. Solving the equation gives (Flask 2) n2=0.391, and (Flask 1) n1 = 0.609. 95.

Molecular mass (MM) then can be calculated: MM = (10.00 g)/(0.2377 mol) = 42.069 g/mol Now we must determine the mole ratio of C to H: 85.6 g C × (1 mol C/12.01 g C) = 7.13 mol 14.4 g H × (1 mol H/1.01 g H) = 14.3 mol

Now, divide both by the smallest number: C:C mole ratio = 1 H:C mole ratio = 2 Therefore, the empirical formula is CH2, with a formula unit molar mass of ~14.03 g/mol. To determine molecular formula, divide MM by formula unit MM: 42.069/14.03 = 3.00. Therefore, the molecular formula is C3H6. 96.

total amount 1.66 mol N 2 0.629 mol Ne 0.575 mol Cl2 2.86 mol Since the total pressure of the mixture is 1 atm, the partial pressure of each gas is numerically very close to its mole fraction. Thus, the partial pressure of Cl2 is 0.201 atm or 153 mmHg 102. (M) Let us first determine the molar mass of this mixture.

104. (M) (a) PTOT = PO2 +PN2O = 154 torr + 612 torr = 766 torr
We know that PO2 = χ O2 PTOT . Therefore, χ O2 = 154/766 = 0.20 To determine the wt% of O2 and N2O, we have to use the mole fractions and determine the mass of each species:
mass O 2 : 0.20 mol O 2
32.0 g O 2 = 6.432 g 1 mol O 2
mass N 2O: 0.80 mol N 2 O
44.0 g N 2 O = 35.20 g 1 mol N 2 O
6.432 100 = 15.4% 6.432 35.20 wt% N 2 O =100 15.4 84.6% wt% O 2 =
(b) Apparent molar mass of the mixture: (32.00 g/mol)(154 torr/766 torr) + (44.02 g/mol)(612 torr/766 torr) = 41.6 g/mol 105. (M) The amount of N2(g) plus the amount of He(g) equals the total amount of gas. We use this equality, and substitute with the ideal gas law, letting V symbolize the volume of cylinder B. n N 2 + n He = n total becomes PN2 VN 2 + PHe VHe = Ptotal Vtotal
since all temperatures are equal. Substitution gives (8.35 atm × 48.2 L) + (9.50 atm × V) = 8.71 atm (48.2 L + V) 420 402 402 L atm 9.50 V 420 L atm 8.71V V 23 L 9.50 8.71 106. (M) To construct a closed-end monometer, fill the tube with mercury, making sure to remove any air bubbles. Inverting the tube results in a column of mercury with a vacuum in the space directly above the column. vacuum gas vacuum
difference in height of columns of mercury is the pressure of the gas
pressure equals difference in heights of the two columns of mercury
When the container is evacuated, the heights of both mercury columns are equal. As the gas pressure in the container increases, the heights of the mercury columns will change. Because the system is closed, Pbar is not needed. One drawback of this system is that gas pressure much larger than one atmosphere cannot easily be handled
245
Chapter 6: Gases
unless a very long column is used. (> 1 meter). Otherwise, the column of mercury would be pushed up to the closed end of the monometer at a critical pressure, and remain unchanged with increasing pressure. An open-ended monometer, would be better suited to measuring higher pressure than lower pressure. A gas pressure of one atmosphere results in the columns of mercury being equal. A sidearm of 760 mm pressure would allow one to measure pressures up to 2 atmospheres. 107.

Use the fact that volume is directly proportional to moles when the pressure and temperature are constant. 1000 L of producer gas contains: 232 L CO which requires 116 L O2 88.5 L O2 177 L H2 which requires 22 L O2 11 L CH4 which requires 226.5 L O2 (Note: air is 20.95 % O2 by volume) Thus, the reaction requires

108. (M) First, balance the equation: C20H32O2 + 27 O2 → 20 CO2 + 16 H2O

246
Chapter 6: Gases
To determine the volume of air needed, we note that O2 represents 20.9% of air by volume: x(0.205) = 4336.30 L. Solving for x gives 20698 L, or 2.070×104 L. 109. (M) First recognize that 3 moles of gas are produced from every 2 moles of water, and compute the number of moles of gas produced. Then determine the partial pressure these gases would exert. amount of gas 1.32 g H 2 O

nRT 0.110 mol 0.08206 L atm mol1 K 1 303 K 760 mmHg P 717 mmHg V 2.90 L 1 atm
Then the vapor pressure (partial pressure) of water is determined by difference.
Pwater = 748 mmHg - 717 mmHg = 31 mmHg 110. (D) First, balance the equations: Fe + 2 HCl → 2 FeCl2 + H2 2 Al + 6 HCl → 2 AlCl3 + 3 H2 Then, we calculate the partial pressure of O2: PO2 =PTOT - PH 2O =841 - 16.5 = 824.5 torr
mol H 2 =
1.0849 atm 0.159 L = 0.007192 mol 0.082058 L atm K 1 292 K
Now, we will try to express the calculated moles of H2 using the mole relationship between the metals and H2: 1 mol H 2 3 mol H 2 mol H 2 = mol Fe + mol Al = 0.007198 mol 1 mol Fe 2 mol Al 1 mol Fe 1 mol Al 1.0 mass Fe + 1.5 0.1924 mass Fe 55.85 g Fe 26.98 g Al

112. (D) (a) 1 mol of the mixture at STP occupies a volume of 22.414 L. It contains 0.79 mol He and 0.21 mol O 2 . 4.003 g He 32.0 g O 2 0.79 mol He 0.21 mol O 2 mass 1 mol He 1 mol O 2 STP density = = = 0.44 g / L volume 22.414 L

We determine the apparent molar masses of each mixture by multiplying the mole fraction (numerically equal to the volume fraction) of each gas by its molar mass, and then summing these products for all gases in the mixture. 28.01 g N 2 32.00 g O 2 39.95 g Ar M air 0.78084 + 0.20946 + 0.00934 1 mol N 2 1 mol O 2 1 mol Ar

(b) In order to prepare two gases with the same density, the volume of the gas of smaller molar mass must be smaller by a factor equal to the ratio of the molar masses. According to Boyle’s law, this means that the pressure on the less dense gas must be larger by a factor equal to a ratio of molar masses.

The water vapor is kept in the 8.050-L container, which means that its pressure is proportional to the absolute temperature in the container. Thus, for each of the six temperatures, we need to calculate two numbers: (1) the pressure due to this water (because gas pressure varies with temperature), and (2) 80% of the vapor pressure. The temperature we are seeking is where the two numbers agree.

Factors that would affect the slope of this straight line are related to deviations real gases exhibit from ideality. At higher pressures, real gases tend to interact more, exerting forces of attraction and repulsion that Boyle’s Law does not take into account. 117.

A second way is to simply disregard the last term and to solve the equation 0 = V3 - 8.06 V2 + 5.07 V This equation simplifies to the following quadratic equation: 0 = V2 - 8.06 V + 5.07, which is solved with the quadratic formula. 8.06 (8.06) 2 4 5.07 8.06 6.68 14.74 V 7.37 L 2 2 2 The other root, 0.69 L does not appear to be reasonable, due to its small size. 122.

FEATURE PROBLEMS 125. (M) Boyle’s Law relates P and V, i.e., P × V = constant. If V is proportional to the value of A, and Pgas = Pbar + PHg (i.e. the pressure of the gas equals the sum of the barometric pressure and the pressure exerted by the mercury column), then a comparison of individual A × P products should show a consistent result or a constant.

Magnesium will react with molecular nitrogen 3 Mg s + N 2 g Mg 3 N 2 s but not with Ar. Thus, magnesium
reacts with all the nitrogen in the mixture, but leaves the relatively inert Ar(g) unreacted. (d)
The “nitrogen” remaining after oxygen is extracted from each mole of air (Rayleigh’s mixture) contains 0.78084 + 0.00934 = 0.79018 mol and has the mass calculated below. mass of gaseous mixture = 0.78084 28.013 g/mol N 2 + 0.00934 39.948 g/mol Ar mass of gaseous mixture = 21.874 g N 2 + 0.373 g Ar = 22.247 g mixture.
Then, the molar mass of the mixture can be computed: 22.247 g mixture / 0.79018 mol = 28.154 g/mol. Since the STP molar volume of an ideal gas is 22.414 L, we can compute the two densities.

We know at the maximum height, the balloon will be 25 ft in diameter. Need to find out what mass of air is displaced. We need to make one assumption – the volume percent of air is unchanged with altitude. Hence we use an apparent molar mass for air of 29 g mol-1 (question 99). Using the data provided, we find the altitude at which the balloon displaces 3200 g of air. 25 4 4 Note: balloon radius = = 12.5 ft. volume = ()r3 = (3.1416)(12.5)3 = 8181 ft3 2 3 3 3 3 -3 12in × 2.54 cm × 1×10 L = 231,660 L Convert to liters: 8181ft 3 × 3 3 1cm3 1ft 1in 1atm g 2.7×10 2 mb× (231,660 L) 29 1013.25 mb PVM mol = At 10 km: m = = 97,827 g RT L atm 0.08206 K mol 223K 1atm g 5.5×101mb× (231,660 L) 29 1013.25 mb PVM mol = = 20,478 g At 20 km: m = RT L atm 0.08206 K mol 217K

SELF-ASSESSMENT EXERCISES 130. (E) (a) atm: Pressure exerted by the atmosphere at sea level per unit area, or 760 mm Hg (b) STP: Standard temperature and pressure, defined as a pressure of 1 barr at 273 K (c) R: Gas constant, which is the ratio between the product of the molar volume of a gas and pressure, and temperature. (d) Partial pressure: The ratio between the pressure of a gas in a container and the total pressure of the container (e) urms: Root mean squared velocity of gas molecules in a sample

(b) Collection of gas over water: The process of isolating a gas (which does not react with water) generated by a reaction by bubbling it through a bottle and measuring its volume by the displacement of water. (c) Effusion of a gas: the escape of gas molecules from their container through a tiny orifice or pinhole. (d) Law of combining volumes: the volume ratio of gases consumed and generated is the same as their mole ratio, provided that temperature and pressure are kept constant throughout. 132. (E) (a) A barometer measures atmospheric pressure, whereas a manometer measures the pressure of a generated gas in a closed vessel. (b) Celsius temperature uses the freezing and boiling points of water to generate a temperature scale, whereas the Kelvin scale uses the temperature below which no molecular vibrations can occur as the zero point. (c) The ideal gas equation states the relationship between pressure, volume, moles, and temperature in an ideal gas. The general gas equation uses the ideal gas equation to set up a linear relationship between P, V, n, and T (P1V1/n1T1 = P2V2/n2T2).

(d) An ideal gas is one in which the gas molecules themselves don’t occupy a volume, and that their interaction with each other is negligible. A real gas takes into account molecular volume of the gas and intermolecular/interatomic interactions. 133. (E) The answer is (d). The following shows the values for each: (a) P = g·h·d = (9.8 m/s2)(0.75 m)(13600 kg/m3) = 99960 Pa (b) Just for a rough approximation, we assume the density of air to be the same as that of nitrogen (this underestimates it a bit, but is close enough). The density of N2 is 0.02802 g/22.7 L = 1.234 g/L = 1.234 kg/m3. P = (9.8 m/s2)(16093 m)(1.234 kg/m3) = 194616 Pa. (c) P = g·h·d = (9.8 m/s2)(5.0 m)(1590 kg/m3) = 77910 Pa (d) P = nRT/V = (10.00 g H2 × 1 mol/2.02 g)(0.083145 L·barr·K-1)(273 K)/(22.7 L) = 4.95 barr = 495032 Pa 134. (E) The answer is (c), because the temperature decreases from 100 °C (373 K) to 200 K. 135. (M) P1/T1 = P2/T2. To calculate T2, rearrange the formula: T2 = 2.0 barr / (1.0 barr × 273 K) = 546 K 136. (M) The answer is (d). P1 V1 P2 V2 = T1 T2

137. (M) The answer is (b). Since the same number of moles of all ideal gases occupy the same volume, density is driven by the molar mass of the gas. Therefore, Kr has the highest density because it has a molar mass of 83 g/mol. 138. (E) The answer is (a). Using the formula urms = (3RT/M)1/2, increases T by a factor of 2 increase urms by a factor of 2 . 139. (M) (a) False. They both have the same kinetic energy (b) True. All else being equal, the heavier molecule is slower. (c) False. The formula PV=nRT can be used to confirm this. The answer is 24.4 L (d) True. There is ~1.0 mole of each gas present. All else being equal, the same number of moles of any ideal gas occupies the same volume. (e) False. Total pressure is the sum of the partial pressures. So long as there is nothing else but H2 and O2, the total pressure is equal to the sum of the individual partial pressures.

140. (E) The answer is (c). Partial pressures are additive, so: PTOT =PH2O +PO2 PO2 (atm)=

141. (M) The answer is (a). First, determine the # moles of NH3 using the ideal gas law relationship: n = PV/RT = (0.500 atm × 4.48 L) / (0.08206 L·atm K-1 × 273 K) = 0.100 mol If 1.0 mole of a substance has 6.022×1023 atoms, 0.100 moles has 6.022×1022 atoms. 142. (M) The answer is (b). Since PV = nRT, the number of moles of O2 needed to satisfy the conditions of the problem is:
n = (2.00 atm × 2.24 L) / (0.08206 L·atm K-1 × 273 K) = 0.200 moles 1 mol O2 0.050 mol O 2 32.0 g O 2 To have an additional 0.150 mol in the system, we would add 0.6 g of He to the container.
The amount of O2 available = 1.60 g O 2
143. (E) The volumes of both gases were measured at the same temperature and pressure. Therefore, the proportionality constant between volume and moles for both gases is the same (that is, volume can essentially replace moles in the following calculations):
25.0 L H 2
3 L CO = 10.7 L CO needed 7 L H2
So, all of the H2 and 10.7 L of CO are consumed, and 1.3 L of CO remain. 144. (M) The answer is (a), that is, the partial pressure of H2 in the container is less than SO2. The reasoning can be derived from the kinetic molecular theory of gases. Gas molecules with smaller molar masses travel faster, and as such can escape faster from an orifice. This is expressed in Graham’s Law in section 6.8. 145. (M) The answer is (c). Gases behave more ideally at high temperatures and low pressures. 146. (M) (a) He or Ne: Ne has higher a and b values. (b) CH4 or C3H8: C3H8 has higher a and b values (c) H2 or Cl2: Cl2 has higher a and b values

147. (D) We know that pressure is force per unit area, that is:
F mg A A Using the fact that area A=πr 2 =π(D/2) 2 and that mass m=d V , and that volume of a cylindrical tube is V=A h (where h is the height of the liquid in the tube), we can express the pressure formula as follows: F d V g d A hg P= = =d h g A A A Therefore, dVg d h g, and, A d d h= A π D/2 2 P=
As we can see, the height, h is inversely proportional to D. That is, the larger the diameter of the tube, the shorter the height of the liquid. 148. (D) First, convert the given information to more useful units. The pressure (752 torr) is equivalent to 0.9895 atm (752 mm/760 mm Hg), and the temperature is 298 K. Then, use the ideal gas relationship to determine how many moles of gas are present, assuming 1 L of gas:
PV = nRT n=
0.9895 atm 1 L PV 0.04046 mol RT 0.08206 L atm K 1 298 K
From the problem, we know the mass of the gas per 1 L, as expressed in the density. Mass of 1 L of this gas is 2.35 g. The molar mass of this substance is therefore:
MM = g/mol = 2.35 g/0.04046 mol. = 58.082 g/mol Now, let’s calculate the empirical formula for the hydrocarbon gas and see how it compares to the molar mass: 1 mol C mol C = 82.7 g C = 6.89 mol 12.01 g C 1 mol H mol H = 17.3 g H = 17.1 mol 1.01 g H H:C ratio = 17.1 mol / 6.89 mol = 2.5 The ratio between H and C is 2.5:1 or 5:2, making the empirical formula C2H5. The mass of this formula unit is 29.07 g/mol. Comparing to the calculated molar mass of the gas, it is smaller by a factor of 2. Therefore, the gas in question in C4H10 or butane.

149. (E) N2 comprises 78.084% of atmosphere, oxygen 20.946%, argon 0.934%, and CO2 0.0379%. To graphically show the scale of this difference, divide all values by the smallest one (CO2). Therefore, for every single mark representing CO2, we need 2060 marks for N2, 553 marks for O2, and 25 for Ar. 150. (M) To construct a concept map, one must first start with the most general concepts. These concepts are not defined by or in terms of other concepts discussed in those sections. In this chapter, pressure is the overarching concept (6-1). The topics that fall under the rubric of pressure are liquid and gas pressure, and measuring pressure. Simple gas laws are derived from the concept of pressure (6-2). Simple gas laws include Boyle’s Law, Charles’ Law and Avogadro’s Law. These laws combine to form another subtopic, the Ideal Gas Law and the General Gas Equation. Take a look at the subsection headings and problems for more refining of the general and specific concepts.
