Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The natural gas that is stored in outdoor storage tanks in wintersis to be predicted and the reason for its storage is to be explained.

Concept Introduction:

Various kinds of interactions that bind a molecule are known as intermolecular forces. These can be dispersion, dipole–dipole, ion–dipole, and hydrogen bonding.

A metal cylinder with a capacity of 6.0 L is filled with compressed propane (C3H8). The pressure and temperature of the cylinder when it was initially filled were 120 atm and 75 ◦C, respectively. The molar mass of carbon is 12 g·mol−1 and the molar mass of hydrogen is 1 g·mol−1. a)  How many moles of propane are in the cylinder? b)  What is the mass of the propane inside the cylinder?  c) After some time, the cylinder and its contents cool to 25 ◦C. What is the pressure in the cylinder after it has cooled?
Part C in Liters (L) At 25 °C and 1.0 atm pressure, what is the minimum quantity of dry air needed to combust 1.2 L of CH4 (g) completely to CO2(g)? Remember that oxygen is present in the atmosphere to the extent of 209,480 parts per million. Express your answer using two significant figures.
A student leaving campus for spring break wants to make sure the air in her dorm room has a high water vapor pressure so that her plants are comfortable. The dorm room measures 3.25 m × 4.03 m × 3.04 m and the student places a pan containing 0.580 L of water in the room. Assume that the room is airtight, that there is no water vapor in the air when she closes the door, and that the temperature remains a constant 22 °C. The vapor pressure of water at 22 °C is 19.8 mm Hg. Calculate the pressure that the water vapor would exert if all of the liquid water evaporated. mm Hg Will all of the water in the pan evaporate?
