Calculate:
(a) the gram molecular mass of chlorine if 308cm3 of it at STP weiths, 0.979 g,
(b) the volume of 4 g ofH2 at 4 atmosphere,
(c) the mass fo oxygen in 2.2 litres of CO2 at STP.
(a).
Find the gram molar mass of the Chlorine gas
Gram Molar mass of the Cl2 gas=Density ×R × TemperaturePressure
At STP,
Temperature = 0∘C + 273 K= 273 K
Pressure = 1 atm
Volume = 308 ml = 0.308 L
Density = massvolume = 0.979 g0.308 L = 3.1785g/L
Gram Molar mass of the Cl2 gas=3.1785 g/L ×0.0821 atm L/mol K × 273 K1 atm = 71.24 g/mol
(b). Assuming the temperature to be 273k
PV=nRT
thus V= nRTP
n=no.of moles= 4 grams2 g/mol = 2 moles of H2
Thus V = 2 moles ×0.0821 atm L/mol K×273 K4 atm=11.2 Liters of H2
(c) The mass of oxygen in 2.2 liters of CO2 at STP.
At STP condition, 1 mol = 22.4 Liters.
Moles of CO2 = 2.2 L22.4 L/mol = 0.098 moles of CO2
Mass of CO2 = 0.098 moles of CO2 ×44.01 g/mol = 4.322 grams CO2
