Question
The catalytic decomposition of hydrogen peroxide yields oxygen gas and water, according to the reaction given below. In an experiment, the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide yielded 75.3 mL of gas collected over water at 25°C and 0.976 atm. (Pwater = 0.032 atm at 25°C)
2 H2O2(aq) → 2 H2O(l) + O2(g)
What mass of oxygen gas was collected?

- a 2.802g sample of an unknown pure metal (M) is added to a 0.2 L solution of 2 mol/L H2SO4(aq). The metal reacts with the acid until the metal is completely gone to form M3+(aq) ion in the solution and produces hydrogen gas that is collected. The hydrogen gas that is collected over water that is isolated from the reaction has a volume of 0.82 L at 25 degrees Celsius and a total pressure of 704.0 mmHg. How many moles of H2(g) are produced?

- Sometimes in lab we collect the gas formed by a chemical reaction over water (see sketch at right). This makes it easy to isolate and measure the amount of gas produced. 2 Suppose the CO₂ gas evolved by a certain chemical reaction taking place at 40.0 °C is collected over water, using an apparatus something like that in the sketch, and the final volume of gas in the collection tube is measured to be 51.0 mL. g x10 X 歐 Sketch of a gas-collection apparatus S collected gas Calculate the mass of CO₂ that is in the collection tube.
