A liter of solid carbon and a liter of oxygen gas at the same temperature and pressure react to produce carbon dioxide. Using the law of combining volumes, how many liters of carbon dioxide will be produced?

2.5 liters

Explanation:

To solve this question you simply use Gay-Lussac’s law of combining volume because both gases are at the same temperature at pressure.

450mLO2(2mLH21mLO2)=900mLH2(9)

2.7atm : For a question like this, you want to first determine the number of moles of the compound in interest first using stoichiometry and then using the ideal gas law to solve for the variable of interest.

37gCH4(1molCH416gCH4)(1molCO21molCH4)=2.3molCO2(10)

Now use the ideal gas law to solve for the pressure of CO2.

PV=nRT

P = ?

V = 30L

n= 2.3 mol CO2

T = 427 K

P = nRT/V

P = (2.3 mol * .08206 L atm mol-1 K-1 * 427 K)/(30 L)

P=2.7 atm

conduction is the transfer of thermal energy (heat in transfer) due to collisions between the molecules in the object. collisions between adjacent atoms and molecules transfer kinetic energy from the warmer to the cooler object. the objects must be in physical contact.
