Chapter 12 Examples Example 1

The document provides 10 examples of problems involving gas laws and gas stoichiometry calculations. The examples cover a range of concepts including: calculating pressure, volume, temperature, number of moles and molecular weight given other variables; determining changes in pressure, volume or temperature when one variable is changed; and calculating partial pressures in gas mixtures. The examples progress from single gas law calculations to stoichiometry and gas mixtures problems.

Chapter 12 Examples

Example 1:
a. Complete the table below:
mmHg atm bar psi Pa
425

b. Where will the atmospheric pressure be greater, at the beach or on top of the mountains?

Example 2:
Which of the following is/are true if the volume of a gas is decreased, and the # of moles of gas
and temperature remains the same?
(a) collisions on walls of container will increase
(b) collisions on walls of container will decrease
(c) kinetic energy increases
(d) kinetic energy decreases

Example 3:
A sample of gas in a 4.00 L cylinder has a pressure of 4.22 atm. If the volume of the cylinder is
increased to 5.00 L, what is the new pressure of the gas? Assume that there are no changes in the
temperature and amount of gas in the cylinder.

Example 4:
Which of the following is/are true if the temperature of a gas in a balloon is increased, and the # of
moles of gas and pressure remains the same?
(a) gas particles move faster
(b) gas particles move slower
(c) kinetic energy increases
(d) kinetic energy decreases
(e) collisions on walls of container will increase
(f) collisions on walls of container will decrease

Example 5:
A sample of gas at 25°C is kept in a 2.45 L expandable container. If the temperature was raised to
50°C, what will be the volume occupied by the gas? Assume that there are no changes in the
pressure and amount of gas in the cylinder.

Example 6:
A 1.75 L balloon is filled with butane gas at 22°C to a pressure of 1.78 atm. If the pressure of the
gas was decreased to 1.25 atm at a temperature of 18°C, what will be the volume of the gas?
Assume that the amount of gas remains the same.

Example 7:
How many moles of nitrogen gas are present in a 23.4 L container at STP?

Example 8:
A sample of 2.20 moles of oxygen gas is placed in a 0.254 L flask. What is the pressure of oxygen
in the flask if the temperature is 311 K?
Example 9:
Calculate the volume of oxygen gas (in liters) required for the complete combustion of 7.64 L of
acetylene (C2H2) measured at the same temperature and pressure.
2 C2H2 (g) + 5 O2 (g) ! 4 CO2 (g) + 2 H2O (l)

Example 10:
Cyclopropane mixed in the proper ratio with oxygen can be used as an anesthetic. At 755 mmHg
and 25°C, there are 1.71 g of cyclopropane in 1.00 L. Calculate the molecular weight of
cyclopropane.

Example 12:
a. A flask contains nitrogen, helium and neon gases at a pressure of 14.9 psi. If the pressures of
helium and nitrogen are 0.475 atm and 278 mmHg, respectively, what is the partial pressure of
neon (in atmospheres)?

b. A mixture of gases contains 4.46 moles of neon (Ne), 0.74 mole of argon (Ar), and 2.15 moles
of xenon (Xe). Calculate the partial pressures of the gases if the total pressure is 2.00 atm at a
certain temperature.
