Question

Transcribed Image Text:**Transcription for Educational Website**
**Question 18:**
A sample of N₂O effuses from a container in 42.9 seconds. How long will it take the same amount of gaseous I₂ to effuse from the same container under identical conditions?
**Explanation:**
This question involves the concept of effusion, which is explained by Graham's law. Graham's law states that the rate of effusion of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of its molar mass. In this problem, you are asked to compare the effusion times for nitrous oxide (N₂O) and iodine gas (I₂) under identical conditions. You can use Graham's law to determine the time it will take I₂ to effuse.

A sample of gas is placed in a flask attached to an open-end mercury manometer, and a meter stick is used to measure the height of the mercury in the two arms of the U tube. The height of the mercury in the open-end arm is 80.4 mm, and the height in the arm in contact with the gas in the flask is 123.5 mm.

- A sample of an ideal gas at 1.00 bar and a volume of 1.91 L1.91 L was placed in a weighted balloon and dropped into the ocean. As the sample descended, the water pressure compressed the balloon and reduced its volume. When the pressure had increased to 60.0 bar,60.0 bar, what was the volume of the sample? Assume that the temperature was held constant.arrow_forwardA particular balloon can be stretched to a maximum surface area of 1257 cm². The balloon is filled with 3.2 L of helium gas at a pressure of 759 torr and a temperature of 310 K. The balloon is then allowed to rise in the atmosphere. Assume an atmospheric temperature of 273 K and determine at what pressure the balloon will burst. (Assume the balloon to be in the shape of a sphere.)

This is an extremely useful industrial process of great antiquity, because powdered lime mixed with water is the basis for mortar and concrete - the lime absorbs CO₂ from the air and turns back into hard, durable limestone. Suppose a limekiln of volume 800. L is pressurized with carbon dioxide gas to 14.9 atm, and heated to 960.0 °C. When the amount of CO, has stopped changing, it is found that 3.96 kg of CaCO, have appeared. Calculate the pressure equilibrium constant K, this experiment suggests for the equilibrium between CaCO3 and CaO at 960.0 °C. Round your answer to 2 significant digits. Note for advanced students: it's possible there was some error in this experiment, and the value it suggests for K, does not match the accepted value. K = 3.07 Parrow_forward
