I NEED HELP ASAP! PLEASE BE GENUINE

1. A sample of an unknown gas effuses in 11.1 min. An equal volume of H2 in the same apparatus under the same conditions effuses in 2.42 min. What is the molar mass of the unknown gas? (MM of H2 = 2.02 g/mol)
2. A steel tank has a volume of 438 L and is filled with 0.885 kg of O2. Calculate the pressure of O2 at 21.0 degrees Celsius. (MM of O2 = 32.00 g/mol)

PLEASE INCLUDE THE GIVEN AND REQUIRED! :)

1. The molar mass of the unknown gas obtained is 0.096 g/mol

2. The pressure of the oxygen gas in the tank is 1.524 atm

Graham's law of diffusion

This states that the rate of diffusion of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of the molar mass i.e

R ∝ 1/ √M

R₁/R₂ = √(M₂/M₁)

1. How to determine the molar mass of the gas

  • Rate of unknown gas (R₁) = 11.1 mins
  • Rate of H₂ (R₂) = 2.42 mins
  • Molar mass of H₂ (M₂) = 2.02 g/mol
  • Molar mass of unknown gas (M₁) =?

R₁/R₂ = √(M₂/M₁)

11.1 / 2.42 = √(2.02 / M₁)

Square both side

(11.1 / 2.42)² = 2.02 / M₁

Cross multiply

(11.1 / 2.42)² × M₁ = 2.02

Divide both side by (11.1 / 2.42)²

M₁ = 2.02 / (11.1 / 2.42)²

M₁ = 0.096 g/mol

2. How to determine the pressure of O₂

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

  • Volume (V) = 438 L
  • Mass of O₂ = 0.885 kg = 885 g
  • Molar mass of O₂ = 32 g/mol
  • Mole of of O₂ (n) = 885 / 32 = 27.65625 moles
  • Temperature (T) = 21 °C = 21 + 273 = 294 K
  • Gas constant (R) = 0.0821 atm.L/Kmol
  • Pressure (P) =?

The pressure of the gas can be obtained by using the ideal gas equation as illustrated below:

PV = nRT

Divide both side by V

P = nRT / V

P = (27.65625 × 0.0821 × 294) / 438

P = 1.524 atm
