Question #111320
Assuming that a gas X is an ideal gas. If 22.4g of X occupies 11.2dm at stp
a)How many moles of X are in the system?
b) what is the molecular weight of X
c)how many molecules of X are in the system?
d)What will be the volume occupied by the gas if it's heated to a temp of 273°c and the pressure is simultaneously reduced to half of the original value

22.4 g gas occupies 11.2 dm .It means

44.8 g gas will occupy 22.4 dm at STP. So molar mass = 44.8 gm per mole

(a) moles of X =massmolar mass=22.444.8=0.5 moles\frac{mass}{molar \ mass}=\frac{22.4}{44.8}= 0.5 \ moles


(b) molecular weight = molar mass = 44.8 gm per mole


(c)from ideal gas equation


PVT=constant\frac{PV}{T}= constant

So,


P1V1T2=P2V2T11×11.2×546K=0.5×V2×273orV2=44.8 dmP_1V_1T_2=P_2V_2T_1\\1\times11.2\times546K=0.5\times V_2\times 273\\or\\V_2=44.8\ dm
