Ethanol \(\left(\mathrm{C}_{2} \mathrm{H}_{5} \mathrm{OH}\right)\) burns in air: $$ \mathrm{C}_{2} \mathrm{H}_{5} \mathrm{OH}(l)+\mathrm{O}_{2}(g) \longrightarrow \mathrm{CO}_{2}(g)+\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}(l) $$ Balance the equation and determine the volume of air in liters at \(35.0^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) and \(790 \mathrm{mmHg}\) required to burn \(227 \mathrm{~g}\) of ethanol. Assume that air is 21.0 percent \(\mathrm{O}_{2}\) by volume.
A certain hydrate has the formula \(\mathrm{MgSO}_{4} \cdot x \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}\). A quantity of \(54.2 \mathrm{~g}\) of the compound is heated in an oven to drive off the water. If the steam generated exerts a pressure of 24.8 atm in a \(2.00-\mathrm{L}\) container \(\mathrm{at}\) \(120^{\circ} \mathrm{C},\) calculate \(x\)
An equimolar mixture of \(\mathrm{H}_{2}\) and \(\mathrm{D}_{2}\) effuses through an orifice (small hole) at a certain temperature. Calculate the composition (in mole fractions) of the gases that pass through the orifice. The molar mass of \(\mathrm{D}_{2}\) is \(2.014 \mathrm{~g} / \mathrm{mol}\)
At \(27^{\circ} \mathrm{C}, 10.0\) moles of a gas in a 1.50 -L container exert a pressure of 130 atm. Is this an ideal gas?
In 2012 , Felix Baumgartner jumped from a balloon roughly \(24 \mathrm{mi}\) above Earth, breaking the record for the highest skydive. He reached speeds of more than 700 miles per hour and became the first skydiver to exceed the speed of sound during free fall. The helium-filled plastic balloon used to carry Baumgartner to the edge of space was designed to expand to \(8.5 \times 10^{8} \mathrm{~L}\) in order to accommodate the low pressures at the altitude required to break the record. (a) Calculate the mass of helium in the balloon from the conditions at the time of the jump \((8.5 \times\) \(\left.10^{8} \mathrm{~L},-67.8^{\circ} \mathrm{C}, 0.027 \mathrm{mmHg}\right) .\) (b) Determine the volume of the helium in the balloon just before it was released, assuming a pressure of 1.0 atm and a temperature of \(23^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\).
