what volume of co2 gas at 85oc and 795 mm hg can be produced in the reaction below, when 43.0 g of methane react with excess oxygen?

Respuesta :

Ideal gas law is valid only for ideal gas not for vanderwaal gas. Therefore, the volume of CO[tex]_2[/tex] is 75.7l for the balanced equation CH[tex]_4[/tex] + 2 O[tex]_2[/tex] → ∆ CO[tex]_2[/tex]+ 2 H[tex]_2[/tex]O.

What is ideal gas equation?

Ideal gas equation is the mathematical expression that relates pressure volume and temperature.

CH[tex]_4[/tex] + 2 O[tex]_2[/tex] → ∆ CO[tex]_2[/tex]+ 2 H[tex]_2[/tex]O

PV=nRT

where,

P = pressure =795 mm hg=1.04 atm

V= volume=?

moles of methane =   43.0 g / 16.04

                              =2.68moles

T =temperature = 358 K

R = Gas constant = 0.0821 L.atm/K.mol

1.04  ×V=2.68× 0.0821 L.atm/K.mol × 358 K

V=75.7l

Therefore, the volume of CO[tex]_2[/tex] is 75.7l.
