#1 Gas Stoichiometry
please show work
Explanation / Answer
The balanced chemical equation is given.
2 NaHCO3 (s) -------> Na2CO3 (s) + CO2 (g) + H2O (l)
As per the balanced stoichiometric equation,
2 moles NaHCO3 = 1 mole CO2
Molar mass of NaHCO3 = (1*23 + 1*1 + 1*12 + 3*16) g mol-1 = 84 g mol-1.
Moles of NaHCO3 taken = (mass of NaHCO3 taken)/(molar mass of NaHCO3) = (2.35 g)/(84 g mol-1) = 0.02798 mole.
Moles of CO2 produced = (0.02798 mole NaHCO3)*(1 mole CO2/2 moles NaHCO3) = 0.01399 mole.
Use the ideal gas law:
P*V = n*R*T where P = 1.05 atm, n = 0.01399 mole, T = 350C = (350 + 273) K = 623 K and R = 0.082 L-atm/mol.K.
Plug in values:
(1.05 atm)*V = (0.01399 mole)*(0.082 L-atm/mol.K)*(623 K)
===> V = 0.068066 L = (0.068066 L)*(1000 mL/1 L) = 68.066 mL 68.1 mL (ans).
