Assignment 5

Example 1

If 500 mL of HCl gas at 300 K and 100 kPa dissolve in 100 mL of pure water, what is the concentration? Data required:Rvalue 8.314 kPa L / (K mol).

Solution:

0.50 L * 100 kPa

n_HCl = ------

(8.314 kPa L/(K mol) * 300 K)

= 0.02 mol

Concentration of HCl, [HCl]

[HCl] = 0.02 mol / 0.1 L = 0.2 mol/L.

Discussion
Note thatR= 0.08205 L atm/(K mol) will not be suitable in this case.

Example 2

If 500 mL of HCl gas at 300 K and 100 kPa dissolved in pure water requires 12.50 mL of the NaOH solution to neutralize in a titration experiment, what is the concentration of the NaOH solution?

Solution:
Solution in Example 1 showednHCl= 0.02 mol. From the titration experiment, we can conclude that there were 0.02 moles of NaOH in 12.50 mL. Thus,

[NaOH] = 0.02 mol / 0.0125 L = 1.60 mol/L

Discussion:
Think in terms of reaction,

HCl + NaOH = NaCl + H2O <== Reaction

0.02 mol 0.02 mol <== Quantities reacted

Note: that 0.02 mol of NaOH is in 0.0125 mL solution.

Example 3:

A 5.0-L air sample containing H2S at STP is treated with a catalyst to promote the reaction,

H2S + O2= H2O + S(solid).

If 3.2 g of solid S was collected, calculate the volume percentage of H2S in the origional sample.

Solution:

1 mol H2S

3.2 g S ------= 0.10 mol H2S

32 g S

V_H2S = 0.10 mol * 22.4 L/mol

= 2.24 L

Volume % = 2.25 L / 5.0 L

= 0.45

= 45 %

Discussion:
Data required: Atomic mass: H, 1; O, 16; S, 32.R= 0.08205 L atm/(K mol) is now suitableRvalues or molar volume at STP (22.4 L/mol)

The volume percentage is also the mole percentage, but not the weight percentage.

Example 4:

Hydrogen sulfide reacts with sulfur dioxide to give H2O and S,

H2S + SO2= H2O + S(solid), unbalanced.

If 6.0 L of H2S gas at 750 torr produced 3.2 g of sulfur, calculate the temperature in C.

Solution
Balanced reaction:

2 H2S + SO2 = 2 H2O + 3 S(solid),

2 mol 3*32 = 96 g

2 mol H2S

3.2 g S ------= 0.067 mol H2S;

96 g S

P = 750/760 = 0.987 atm

PV 0.987 atm * 6 L

T = --- = ------

n R 0.067 mol * 0.08205 atm L /(mol K)

= 1085 K

= 812°C

Discussion:
Atomic mass: H, 1.0; O, 16.0; S, 32.0.R= 0.08205 L atm/(K mol) is OK but watch units used for pressure.

Example 6:

What volume (L) will 0.20 mol HI occupy at 300 K and 100.0 kPa?R= 8.314 kPa L / (K mol) = 0.08205 atm L / (mol K).

Solution

n RT

V = ----

P

0.20 mol * 8.314 kPa L / (mol K) *300 K

= ------

100 kPa

= 5 L,
