Question
Chapter 2, Problem 2Q
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The reason for the horn of the fire extinguisher becoming cold on use is to be determined.
Concept introduction:
Fire extinguisher is a safety device used in laboratories to put out the fire hazard caused due to an accident. It contains carbon dioxide gas. The gas inside the cylinder is at high pressure relative to the surrounding pressure.

Part 1: The structures of carbon disulfide and carbon dioxide are shown below with their boiling points. Explain why CS2 has a higher boiling point than CO2. Be specific about particulate interactions and intermolecular forces. IMG 2217
Part 2: Below are the structures of water and octane (C8H18), along with their boiling points. Water has a lower boiling point than octane! Explain why, being specific about the particulate-level interactions and intermolecular forces. (Remember, each point on a line is a carbon surrounded with the appropriate number of hydrogen atoms to make an octet). IMG 2218

- Why is it not necessary to know the mass of the volatile liquid initially added to the flask? What assumption is being made in determining each of the following? The mass of the vapor. The volume of the vapor. The temperature of the vapor. The pressure of the vapor. How will the unknown’s reported molar mass be affected in each of the following cases The atmospheric pressure is recorded too high. A small piece of the foil cap was lost before the final mass was measured. Condensed water vapor from the bath was trapped underneath the foil cap. The vapor’s volume is assumed to be 125 mL (marked on the side of the flask) instead of the measured volume of the flask. Heating the flask too long resulted in air outside the flask entering and displacing some of the vapor inside the flask.
