CO is oxidized to CO2 according to the equation 2CO(g) + O2(g) 2CO2(g). If 2L of CO(g) are mixed with 2L of O2(g), what is the resulting total volume of the gas after the reaction has gone to completion (pressure & temperature is constant)? Calcium carbonate, CaCO3(s), decomposes upon heating to give CaO(s) and CO2(g). A sample of CaCO3(s) is decomposed, and the carbon dioxide is collected in a 250mL flask. After the decomposition, the gas has a pressure of 1.3 atm at a temperature of 31C. How many moles of CO2 gas were generated? (R = 0.0821 Latm/molK) Tennis balls are usually filled with air or N 2 gas to a pressure above atmospheric pressure to increase their bounce. If a particular tennis ball has a volume of 144cm 3 and contains 0.33g of N2 gas, what is the pressure inside the ball at 24C? The gas pressure in an aerosol can is 1.5atm at 25C. Assuming that the gas inside obeys the ideal-gas equation, what would the pressure be if the can were heated to 450C? A large natural-gas storage is arranged so that the pressure is maintained at 2.20 atm. On a cold day in December when the temperature is -15.4C, the volume of gas in the tank is 28,500ft 3. What is the volume of the same quantity of gas on a warm July day when the temperature is 31C? An inflated balloon has a volume of 6.0L at sea level (1 atm) and is allowed to ascend in altitude until the pressure is 0.45 atm. During ascent the temperature of the gas falls from 22C to -21C. Calculate the volume of the balloon at its final altitude. A 0.50-mol sample of oxygen gas is confined at 0C in a cylinder with a movable piston. The gas has an initial pressure of 1.0 atm. The gas is then compressed by the piston so that its final volume is half the initial volume. The final pressure of the gas is 2.2 atm. What is the final temperature of the gas in degrees Celsius? The most important commercial process for converting N 2 from the air into nitrogen-containing compounds is based on the reaction of N2 and H2 to form ammonia (NH3): N2(g) + 3H2(g) 2NH3(g) How many moles of NH3 can be formed from 3.0 mol of N 2, and 6.0 mol of H2? Considering the reaction 2Al(s) + 3Cl2(g) 2AlCl3(s). A mixture of 1.50 mol of Al and 3.00 of Cl 2 are allowed to react. (a) What is the limiting reagent? (b) How many moles of AlCl 3 are formed? (c) How many moles of the excess reactant remain at the end of the reaction?

10. Adipic acid, H2C6H8O4 is used to produce nylon. It is made commercially by a controlled reaction between cyclcohexane C6H12 and O2: 2C6H12(l) + 5O2 2H2C6H12(l) + 2H2O(g) (a) Assume that you carry out the reaction starting with 25.0g of cyclohexane and that cyclohexane is the limiting reagent. What is the theoretical yield of adipic acid? (b) If you obtain 33.5g of adipic acid from your reaction, what is the percent yield of adipic acid? 11. Iron ore containing Fe2O3 is converted into iron using the following reaction: Fe2O3(s) + 3CO(g) 2Fe(s) + 3CO2(g) (a) If you start with 150g of Fe2O3 as the limiting reagent, what is the theoretical yield of Fe? (b) If the actual yield of Fe is 87.9g, what was the percent yield? 12. An unknown gas composed of homonuclear diatomic molecules effuses at a rate that is only 0.355 times of O2 at the same temperature. What is the molar mass of the unknown gas?
