A 6.53-g sample of a mixture of magnesium carbonate and calcium carbonate is treated with excess hydrochloric acid. The resulting reaction produces \(1.72 \mathrm{~L}\) of carbon dioxide gas at \(28^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) and 743 torr pressure. (a) Write balanced chemical equations for the reactions that occur between hydrochloric acid and each component of the mixture. (b) Calculate the total number of moles of carbon dioxide that forms from these reactions. (c) Assuming that the reactions are complete, calculate the percentage by mass of magnesium carbonate in the mixture.
(a) Amonton's law expresses the relationship between pressure and temperature. Use Charles's law and Boyle's law to derive the proportionality relationship between \(P\) and \(T\). (b) If a car tire is filled to a pressure of \(32.0 \mathrm{lbs} / \mathrm{in}^{2}\) (psi) measured at \(75^{\circ} \mathrm{F}\), what will be the tire pressure if the tires heat up to \(120^{\circ} \mathrm{F}\) during driving?
A quantity of \(\mathrm{N}_{2}\) gas originally held at \(5.25 \mathrm{~atm}\) pressure in a \(1.00\) - \(\mathrm{L}\) container at \(26^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) is transferred to a \(12.5\) - \(\mathrm{L}\) container at \(20^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\). A quantity of \(\mathrm{O}_{2}\) gas originally at \(5.25\) atm and \(26^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) in a \(5.00\)-L container is transferred to this same container. What is the total pressure in the new container?
A neon sign is made of glass tubing whose inside diameter is \(2.5 \mathrm{~cm}\) and whose length is \(5.5 \mathrm{~m}\). If the sign contains neon at a pressure of \(1.78\) torr at \(35^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\), how many grams of neon are in the sign? (The volume of a cylinder is \(\pi r^{2} h\).)
Carbon dioxide, which is recognized as the major contributor to global warming as a "greenhouse gas," is formed when fossil fuels are combusted, as in electrical power plants fueled by coal, oil, or natural gas. One potential way to reduce the amount of \(\mathrm{CO}_{2}\) added to the atmosphere is to store it as a compressed gas in underground formations. Consider a 1000 -megawatt coal-fired power plant that produces about \(6 \times 10^{6}\) tons of \(\mathrm{CO}_{2}\) per year. (a) Assuming ideal-gas behavior, \(1.00 \mathrm{~atm}\), and \(27^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\), calculate the volume of \(\mathrm{CO}_{2}\) produced by this power plant. (b) If the \(\mathrm{CO}_{2}\) is stored underground as a liquid at \(10^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) and \(120 \mathrm{~atm}\) and a density of \(1.2 \mathrm{~g} / \mathrm{cm}^{3}\), what volume does it possess? (c) If it is stored underground as a gas at \(36^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) and \(90 \mathrm{~atm}\), what volume does it occupy?
