Chapter 11 Gas Law Questions:

1. If I have 17.0 L of gas at a temperature of 67C and a pressure of 88.89 atm, what
will be the pressure of the gas if I raise the temperature to 94C and decrease the volume
to 12.0 L?
2.
A 5.15 g sample of gas containing only carbon and hydrogen has a volume of 785 mL
with a pressure of 1522 torr at a temperature of 28C. It is combusted in pure dry oxygen and the
products are collected. They are cooled to a temperature of -21C and the ice is removed and has
a mass of 5.15 g. The remaining gas had a pressure of 744 torr and a volume of 7.76 L. What is
the empirical formula and write a balance equation.
3.
A 3.66 g sample containing Zn (mm. 65.4) and Mg (mm 24.3) reacted with a diluted
acid (HCl) to produce 2.470 L H2 gas at 101.0 kPa and 300. K Calculate the % of Zn {remember
calc sigfig after changing operation}
4.
Phosphoric acid reacts with zinc as a single replacement reaction. How many grams of
acid are required the produce 5.3 L of hydrogen at STP?
5.
Calcium carbonate can be decompose to produce calcium oxide (lime). How many
grams of calcium carbonate is needed to be decomposed to produce 5.00 L of gas at STP?
6.
A gaseous hydrocarbon contains 14.37% H by mass and has a density of 1.69 g/L at
24C and 743 mmHg. What is the molecular formula of the unknown?
7.
Use C8H18 for fuel. density is 0.71 g/mL If fuel can get 31.2 mile per gallon (1 gal =
3.785 L) what volume of CO2 is produced in a trip of 265 mile 28C weather and 732 mmHg?
Conversions
1 Pa = 1 Nm2
1 torr = 1 mmHg
1 atm = 760 mmHg = 760 torr = 101.3 kPa = 14.700 psi
1 psi = 6.89286 * 103 Pa
K = 273 K + C
R = 0.0821 atm * Lmol * K
R = 8.314 kPa * Lmol * Kor Jmol * K
