A sample of chlorine gas fills a vessel at a temperature of 37oC. The vessel has a volume of 3L and experiences a pressure of 3atm. What is the mass of the chlorine gas in the vessel

25.1 g is the mass of chlorine in the sample

Explanation:

P . V = n . R . T

We apply the Ideal Gases Law to solve the excersise.

We need to convert the T°C to T°K → 37°C + 273 = 310K

We replace data: 3 atm . 3L = n . 0.082 L.atm /mol.K . 310K

9 atm.L / (0.082 L.atm /mol.K . 310K) = n → 0.354 moles

We convert the moles to mass, to reach the answer

0.345 mol . 70.9g / 1mol = 25.1 g

  the   balanced   equation   for   reaction of   ca metal   with   o2 to   produce   cao   is as below

2 ca+ o2→ 2 cao2

  explanation

the reaction is   balanced     since the   number of atoms   in reactant side is   equal to   number of atoms   in   product side.   for   example   they   are 2   atom of   ca in   reactant   side   and   2   atoms of ca   in   the product side.

  the   process   is a   meet the   requirement   of   redox   reaction because :     calcium   is   oxidized   from   oxidation state 0   to 2+   while   oxygen   is reduced from   oxidation   state   0   to 2-
