A balloon is filled to a volume of 2. 00 L with 4. 00 moles of gas at 25∘C. With pressure and temperature held constant, what will be the volume of the balloon if 0. 30 moles of gas are added? The gas in a 225. 0 mL piston experiences a change in pressure from 1. 35 atm to 2. 40 atm. What is the new volume (in mL ) assuming the moles of gas and temperature are held constant? What is the mass (in grams) of 21. 00 L of propane vapor (C3H1) at STP? R=0. 08314 L⋅bar/mol⋅K. At what temperature does sulfur hexafluoride have a density of 0. 3600 g/L at 0. 8210 atm ?

Answer: Let's tackle each question step by step:

Volume of the Balloon with Additional Gas:

The first step is to calculate the new moles of gas after adding 0.30 moles to the initial 4.00 moles.

Initial moles of gas (n1) = 4.00 moles

Additional moles of gas (Δn) = 0.30 moles

Total moles of gas after addition (n2) = n1 + Δn = 4.00 moles + 0.30 moles = 4.30 moles

Since the pressure and temperature are held constant, we can use the combined gas law to find the new volume (V2) of the balloon:

(P1 * V1) / n1 = (P2 * V2) / n2

Where:

P1 = Initial pressure

V1 = Initial volume

n1 = Initial moles of gas

P2 = Final pressure (same as initial pressure since it is held constant)

V2 = Final volume (unknown)

n2 = Total moles of gas after addition

The initial volume (V1) is given as 2.00 L, and the initial pressure (P1) is not provided, so we assume it to be constant.

We can rearrange the equation to solve for V2:

V2 = (P1 * V1 * n2) / (P2 * n1)

Now, let's calculate V2:

V2 = (P1 * V1 * n2) / (P2 * n1)

V2 = (P1 * 2.00 L * 4.30 moles) / (P2 * 4.00 moles)

As P1/P2 is a constant value, we can find the ratio of the initial pressure to the final pressure from the information given in the second question.

New Volume of the Piston (Given Change in Pressure):

The new volume (V2) of the piston can be calculated using Boyle's law, which states that for a given amount of gas at constant temperature, the pressure and volume are inversely proportional.

Boyle's law formula: P1 * V1 = P2 * V2

Where:

P1 = Initial pressure (1.35 atm)

V1 = Initial volume (225.0 mL)

P2 = Final pressure (2.40 atm)

V2 = Final volume (unknown)

Rearrange the equation to solve for V2:

V2 = (P1 * V1) / P2

Now, let's calculate V2:

V2 = (1.35 atm * 225.0 mL) / 2.40 atm

Mass of Propane Vapor (C3H8) at STP:

To find the mass of propane vapor, we need to use the ideal gas law:

PV = nRT

Where:

P = Pressure (STP = 1 atm)

V = Volume (21.00 L)

n = Number of moles of propane (unknown, to be calculated)

R = Ideal gas constant (0.08314 L⋅bar/mol⋅K)

T = Temperature in Kelvin (STP = 273.15 K)

Since the density of a gas at STP is given as 0.3600 g/L, we can use this information to calculate the molar mass (M) of propane:

Density = Mass / Volume

0.3600 g/L = Molar mass / Molar volume (22.414 L/mol at STP)

Now, let's calculate the molar mass of propane (C3H8):

Molar mass of propane (C3H8) = 0.3600 g/L * 22.414 L/mol ≈ 8.071 g/mol

Now, we can use the ideal gas law to find the number of moles (n) of propane:

PV = nRT

n = (PV) / RT

n = (1 atm * 21.00 L) / (0.08314 L⋅bar/mol⋅K * 273.15 K)

Finally, let's calculate the mass of propane vapor:

Mass of propane vapor = n * molar mass of propane

Mass of propane vapor ≈ n * 8.071 g/mol

Temperature of Sulfur Hexafluoride (SF6) with Given Density:

To find the temperature of sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) at a given density, we need to use the ideal gas law once again:

PV = nRT

Where:

P = Pressure (0.8210 atm)

V = Volume (unknown, to be calculated)

n = Number of moles of SF6 (unknown, assume it as 1 mole for simplicity)

R = Ideal gas constant (0.08314 L⋅bar/mol⋅K)

T = Temperature in Kelvin (unknown, to be calculated)

First, we need to calculate the molar mass of sulfur hexafluoride (SF6):

Molar mass of SF6 = (32.06 g/mol for S) + 6 * (18.998 g/mol for F)

Now, let's rearrange the ideal gas law equation to solve for temperature (T):

T = (PV) / (nR)

Now, let's calculate the temperature (T):

T = (0.8210 atm * V) / (1 mole * 0.08314 L⋅bar/mol⋅K)

To find V, we can use the given density:

Density = Mass / Volume

0.3600 g/L = molar mass of SF6 / V

Now, calculate V:

V = molar mass of SF6 / 0.3600 g/L

Finally, substitute V into the temperature equation to find T.
