(a)
Interpretation:
The gas which occupies the greatest volume at STP is to be determined.
(a)
Explanation of Solution
The number of moles of a gas
STP is the standard temperature and pressure. At STP, the volume of a gas occupied by
The number of moles of
Substitute
The volume occupied by

EBK INTRODUCTION TO CHEMISTRY
- A collapsed balloon is filled with He to a volume of 12.5 L at a pressure of 1.00 atm. Oxygen, O2, is then added so that the final volume of the balloon is 26 L with a total pressure of 1.00 atm. The temperature, which remains constant throughout, is 21.5 C. (a) What mass of He does the balloon contain? (b) What is the final partial pressure of He in the balloon? (c) What is the partial pressure of O2 in the balloon? (d) What is the mole fraction of each gas?arrow_forwardAt STP, 1.0 L Br2 reacts completely with 3.0 L F2, producing 2.0 L of a product. What is the formula of the product? (All substances are gases.)arrow_forwardYou have two flasks of equal volume. Flask A contains H2 at 0 C and 1 atm pressure. Flask B contains CO2 gas at 25 C and 2 atm pressure. Compare these two gases with respect to each of the following: (a) average kinetic energy per molecule (b) root mean square speed (c) number of molecules (d) mass of gasarrow_forward
