Explanation / Answer

Ans

Part A :

when half of the atoms have leaked , the amount of Ne atoms left = 1.60 / 2 = 0.8 moles

Volume is directly related to the number of moles by the expression :

V1n2 = V2n1

7.50 x 1.60 = V2 x 0.8

V = 15 L

Part B :
Total number of moles = 3.50 + 1.60 = 5.1 moles

Using the formula :

V1n2 = V2n1

7.5 x 5.1 = V2 x 1.6

V = 23.9 L

Part C :

18.0 g of Ne = 18/20.1797 = 0.89 moles

total number of moles = 1.60 + 0.89 = 2.49 moles

V1n2 = V2n1

7.5 x 2.49 = V2 x 1.60

V = 11.67 L
