A person accidentally swallows a drop of liquid oxygen, \(\mathrm{O}_{2}(l)\), which has a density of \(1.149 \mathrm{~g} / \mathrm{mL}\). Assuming the drop has a volume of \(0.050 \mathrm{~mL}\), what volume of gas will be produced in the person's stomach at body temperature \(\left(37^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\right)\) and a pressure of \(1.0 \mathrm{~atm}\) ?

Short Answer

Expert verified
The volume of O₂ gas produced in the person's stomach at body temperature (37°C) and a pressure of 1.0 atm will be 45.7 mL.

Step by step solution

01

Finding the mass of liquid oxygen drop

We are given the density of the liquid oxygen drop, which is 1.149 g/mL, and its volume, which is 0.050 mL. We will use these values to find the mass of this drop. Mass = Density × Volume.
02

Calculate the mass of the liquid oxygen

We plug the values we have into the formula from Step 1: \( Mass = (1.149 \frac{g}{mL}) \times (0.050 mL) \) By multiplying the values, we get: \( Mass = 0.05745 \ g \)
03

Finding the number of moles of Oâ‚‚

Now that we have the mass of the liquid oxygen, we will find the number of moles of Oâ‚‚. We know the molar mass of Oâ‚‚ is 32.00 g/mol. We will use the formula: Moles of Oâ‚‚ = (mass of Oâ‚‚) / (molar mass of Oâ‚‚)
04

Calculate the number of moles of Oâ‚‚

Plugging in the values from Step 2 and the molar mass of Oâ‚‚, we get: \( Moles \ of \ O_{2} = \frac{0.05745 \ g}{32.00 \frac{g}{mol}} \) By dividing the mass by molar mass, we get: \( Moles \ of \ O_{2} = 0.0018 \ mol \)
05

Find the volume of Oâ‚‚ gas using the ideal gas law

We have the number of moles of O₂ gas and we are given the pressure (1.0 atm) and temperature (37°C or 310 K). The ideal gas law formula is: \(PV = nRT\) Where P is the pressure, V is the volume, n is the number of moles, R is the ideal gas constant (0.0821 L atm /(K mol)), and T is the temperature in Kelvin. We will solve for V (volume of gas).
06

Calculate the volume of Oâ‚‚ gas

Plug in the values we have for P, n, R, and T, and solve for V: \( V = \frac{nRT}{P} \\ V = \frac{(0.0018 \ mol)(0.0821 \frac{L \cdot atm}{K \cdot mol})(310 \ K)}{1.0 \ atm} \) By multiplying and dividing the values, we get: \( V = 0.0457 \ L \)
07

Express the result in mL

We will convert the volume of O₂ gas from liters to milliliters by multiplying by 1000: Volume of O₂ gas = 0.0457 L × 1000 mL/L Volume of O₂ gas = 45.7 mL Thus, the volume of O₂ gas produced in the person's stomach at body temperature (37°C) and a pressure of 1.0 atm will be 45.7 mL.

Silane, \(\mathrm{SiH}_{4}\), is the silicon analogue of methane, \(\mathrm{CH}_{4}\). It is prepared industrially according to the following equations: $$ \begin{aligned} \mathrm{Si}(s)+3 \mathrm{HCl}(g) & \longrightarrow \mathrm{HSiCl}_{3}(l)+\mathrm{H}_{2}(g) \\ 4 \mathrm{HSiCl}_{3}(l) & \longrightarrow \mathrm{SiH}_{4}(g)+3 \mathrm{SiCl}_{4}(l) \end{aligned} $$ a. If \(156 \mathrm{~mL} \mathrm{HSiCl}_{3}(d=1.34 \mathrm{~g} / \mathrm{mL})\) is isolated when \(15.0 \mathrm{~L}\) \(\mathrm{HCl}\) at \(10.0 \mathrm{~atm}\) and \(35^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) is used, what is the percent yield of \(\mathrm{HSiCl}_{3} ?\) b. When \(156 \mathrm{~mL} \mathrm{HSiCl}_{3}\) is heated, what volume of \(\mathrm{SiH}_{4}\) at \(10.0\) atm and \(35^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) will be obtained if the percent yield of the reaction is \(93.1 \%\) ?

A hot-air balloon is filled with air to a volume of \(4.00 \times 10^{3} \mathrm{~m}^{3}\) at 745 torr and \(21^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\). The air in the balloon is then heated to \(62^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\), causing the balloon to expand to a volume of \(4.20 \times 10^{3} \mathrm{~m}^{3}\). What is the ratio of the number of moles of air in the heated balloon to the original number of moles of air in the balloon? (Hint: Openings in the balloon allow air to flow in and out. Thus the pressure in the balloon is always the same as that of the atmosphere.)

Hydrogen cyanide is prepared commercially by the reaction of methane, \(\mathrm{CH}_{4}(g)\), ammonia, \(\mathrm{NH}_{3}\left(\mathrm{~g}\right.\) ), and oxygen, \(\mathrm{O}_{2}(\mathrm{~g})\), at high temperature. The other product is gaseous water. a. Write a chemical equation for the reaction. b. What volume of \(\mathrm{HCN}(\mathrm{g})\) can be obtained from the reaction of \(20.0 \mathrm{~L} \mathrm{CH}_{4}(g), 20.0 \mathrm{~L} \mathrm{NH}_{3}(g)\), and \(20.0 \mathrm{~L} \mathrm{O}_{2}(g) ?\) The volumes of all gases are measured at the same temperature and pressure.

At elevated temperatures, sodium chlorate decomposes to produce sodium chloride and oxygen gas. A \(0.8765-g\) sample of impure sodium chlorate was heated until the production of oxygen gas ceased. The oxygen gas collected over water occupied \(57.2\) \(\mathrm{mL}\) at a temperature of \(22^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) and a pressure of 734 torr. Calculate the mass percent of \(\mathrm{NaClO}_{3}\) in the original sample. (At \(22^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) the vapor pressure of water is \(19.8\) torr.)

A \(15.0\) - \(\mathrm{L}\) tank is filled with \(\mathrm{H}_{2}\) to a pressure of \(2.00 \times 10^{2}\) atm. How many balloons (each \(2.00 \mathrm{~L}\) ) can be inflated to a pressure of \(1.00\) atm from the tank? Assume that there is no temperature change and that the tank cannot be emptied below \(1.00 \mathrm{~atm}\) pressure.
