- Silane, SiH4, is the silicon analogue of methane, CH4. It is prepared industrially according to the following equations: Si(s)+3HC1(g)HSiCl3(l)+H2(g)4HSiCl3(l)SiH4(g)+3SiCl4(l) a. If 156 mL HSiCl3 (d = 1.34 g/mL) is isolated when 15.0 L HC1 at 10.0 atm and 35C is used, what is the percent yield of HSiCl3? b. When 156 mL HSiCl3 is heated, what volume of SiH4 at 10.0 atm and 35C will be obtained if the percent yield of the reaction is 93.1%?arrow_forward5-114 Carbon dioxide gas, saturated with water vapor, can be produced by the addition of aqueous acid to calcium carbonate based on the following balanced net ionic equation: (a) How many moles of wet CO (g), collected at 60.°C and 774 torr total pressure, are produced by the complete reaction of 10.0 g of CaCO3 with excess acid? (b) What volume does this wet CO2 occupy? (c) What volume would the CO2 occupy at 774 torr if a desiccant (a chemical drying agent) were added to remove the water? The vapor pressure of water at 60.°C is 149.4 mm Hg.arrow_forwardYou have a 550.-mL tank of gas with a pressure of 1.56 atm at 24 C. You thought the gas was pure carbon monoxide gas, CO, but you later found it was contaminated by small quantities of gaseous CO2 and O2. Analysis shows that the tank pressure is 1.34 atm (at 24 C) if the CO2 is removed. Another experiment shows that 0.0870 g of O2 can be removed chemically. What are the masses of CO and CO2 in the tank, and what is the partial pressure of each of the three gases at 25 C?arrow_forward

(a) Write the balanced chemical equation for the combustion of isooctane. (b) The density of isooctane is 0.792 g/mL. How many kg of C02 are produced each year by the annual U.S. gasoline consumption of L? (c) What is the volume in liters of this CO2 at STP? (d) The chemical formula for isooctane can be represented by (CH3)3CCH2CH(CH3)2. Draw a Lewis structure of isooctane. (e) Another molecule with the same molecular formula is octane, which can be represented by: When comparing isooctane and octane, one structure is observed to have a boiling point of 99°C, while another is known to have a boiling point Of 125°C. Which substance, isooctane or octane, is expected to have the higher boiling point? (f) Determine whether isooctane or octane is expected to have the greater vapor pressure.arrow_forwardMany nitrate salts can be decomposed by heating. For example, blue, anhydrous copper(II) nitrate produces the gases nitrogen dioxide and oxygen when heated. In the laboratory, you find that a sample of this salt produced a 0.195-g mixture of gaseous NO2 and O2 with a total pressure of 725 mm Hg at 35 C in a 125-mL flask (and black, solid CuO was left as a residue). What is the average molar mass of the gas mixture? What are the mole fractions of NO2 and O2 in the mixture? What amount of each gas b in the mixture? Do these amounts reflect the relative amounts of NO2 and O2 expected based on the balanced equation? Is it possible that the fact that some NO2 molecules combine to give N2O4 plays a role? Heating copper(II) nitrate produces nitrogen dioxide and oxygen gas and leaves a residue of copper(ll) oxide.arrow_forward
- An organic compound contains C, H, N, and O. Combustion of 0.1023 g of the compound in excess oxygen yielded 0.2766 g CO2 and 0.0991 g H2O. A sample of 0.4831 g of the compound was analyzed for nitrogen by the Dumas method (see Exercise 129). At STP, 27.6 mL of dry N2 was obtained.

A 2.000-L flask is filled with CO gas to a pressure of 748 torr at 350.0 K, and then 5.00 g of Ni is added.

Some of these gases, including methane, can be captured and used as fuel to support the mining operation. For a particular mine, 2.4 g of CH4 is present for every 100.0 g of coal that is extracted. If 45.6% of the methane can be captured and the daily production of the mine is 580 metric tons of coal, how many moles of methane could be obtained per day?arrow_forward
