5. (TCO 6) Calculate the pressure, in atmospheres, of 2.78 mol CO(g) in a 4.25 L tank at 51 degrees C. (Points : 5)
6. (TCO 6) A gas at a temperature of 95 degrees C occupies a volume of 165 mL. Assuming constant pressure, determine the volume at 25 degrees C. Show your work. (Points : 5)
Using Charles’ Law, (V1/T1) = (V2/T2).
First, convert temperature to KELVIN (T1 = t1 +273)
Thus, T1 = 95 + 273 = 368.
We have V1 (165 mL) & T2 = (25 + 273) = 298.
V2 = (V1*T2)/T1 = (165 mL*298)/368 = 133.6 mL.
7. (TCO 6) A sample of helium gas occupies 1021 mL at 719 mmHg. For a gas sample at constant temperature, determine the volume of helium at 745 mmHg. Show your work. (Points : 5)
1021mL * 719 mm/745 mmHg = 985.36mL =985mL
Using Boyle’s law, P1V1 = P2V2. We have V1 (1021 mL), P1 (719 mmHg) and P2 (745 mmHg).
