(a) What is the total volume (in L) of gaseous products, measured at 350°C and 735 torr, when an automobile engine burns 100. g of C₈H₁₈(a typical component of gasoline)?

Respuesta :

The total volume (in L) of gaseous products, measured at 350°C and 735 torr, when an automobile engine burns 100. g of C₈H₁₈ is  46.35 L.

Calculation ,

According to ideal gas law ,

PV = nRT

Where P is the pressure of gaseous products =  735 torr

V is the total volume of gaseous products = ?

n  is the number of moles of gaseous products = given mass/molar mass

number of moles of gaseous products  ( n ) = 100g / 114 g/mol = 0.877 mol

R  is the universal gas constant of gaseous products = 62.36 L.torr/K.mol

T  is the temperature of gaseous products =  350°C  =  350 + 273 = 623K

Putting the value of P , n ,R and T in equation ( i ) we get the  volume of gaseous products .

735 torr×V = 0.877 mol× 62.36 L.torr/K.mol× 623K

V = 0.877 mol× 62.36 L.torr/K.mol× 623K/735 torr = 46.35 L
