Chapter 11, Problem 11.12QP
The 235U isotope undergoes fission when bombarded with neutrons. However, its natural abundance is only 0.72 percent. To separate it from the more abundant 238U isotope, uranium is first converted to UF6, which is easily vaporized above room temperature. The mixture of the 235UF6 and 238UF6 gases is then subjected to many stages of effusion. Calculate how much faster 235UF6 effuses than 238UF6.

- 105 The decomposition of mercury(II) thiocyanate produces an odd brown snake-like mass that is so unusual the process was once used in fireworks displays. There are actually several reactions that take place when the solid Hg(SCN)2 is ignited: 2Hg(SCN)2(s)2HgS(s)+CS2(s)+C3N4(s)CS2(s)+3O2(g)CO2(g)+2SO2(g)2C3N4(s)3(CN)2(g)+N2(g)HgS(s)+O2(g)Hg(l)+SO2(g) A 42.4-g sample of Hg(SCN)2 is placed into a 2.4-L vessel at 21°C. The vessel also contains air at a pressure of 758 torr. The container is sealed and the mixture is ignited, causing the reaction sequence above to occur. Once the reaction is complete, the container is cooled back to the original temperature of 21°C. (a) Without doing numerical calculations, predict whether the final pressure in the vessel will be greater than, less than, or equal to the initial pressure. Explain your answer. (b) Calculate the final pressure and compare your result with your prediction.

- Carbon monoxide, CO, and oxygen, O2, react according to 2CO(g)+O2(g)2CO2(g) Assuming that the reaction takes place and goes to completion, determine what substances remain and what their partial pressures are after the valve is opened in the apparatus represented in the accompanying figure. Also assume that the temperature is fixed at 300 K.arrow_forwardIn a typical automobile engine, a gasoline vapor-air mixture is compressed and ignited in the cylinders of the engine. This results in a combustion reaction that produces mainly carbon dioxide and water vapor. For simplicity, assume that the fuel is C8H18 and has a density of 0.760 g/mL. (a) Calculate the partial pressures of N2 and 02 in the air before it goes into the cylinder; assume the atmospheric pressure is 734 mmHg. (b) Consider the case where the air, without any fuel added, is compressed in the cylinder to seven times atmospheric pressure, the compression ratio of many modem automobile engines. Calculate the partial pressures of N2 and O2 at this pressure. (c) Now consider the case where 0.050 mL gasoline is added to the air in the cylinder just before compression and completely vaporized. Assume that the volume of the cylinder is 485 mL and the temperature is 150C. Calculate the partial pressure of the gasoline vapor. (d) Calculate the amount (mol) of oxygen required to bum the gasoline in part (c) completely to CO2 and H2O. (e) The combustion reaction in the cylinder creates temperatures in excess of 1200K. Due to the high temperature, some of the nitrogen and oxygen in the air reacts to form nitrogen monoxide. If 10% of the nitrogen is converted to NO, calculate the mass (g) of NO produced by this combustion. (f) Hot-rod cars use another oxide of nitrogen, dinitrogen monoxide, to create an extra burst in power. When such a power boost is needed, dinitrogen monoxide gas is injected into the cylinders where it reacts with oxygen to form NO. Calculate the mass of dinitrogen monoxide that would have to be injected to form the same quantity of NO as produced in part (e). Assume that sufficient oxygen is present to do so.arrow_forwardWorkers at a research station in the Antarctic collected a sample of air to test for airborne pollutants.
