Chlorine, 15 g, is contained in a vessel with a volume of 0.80 dm3 at 330 K. Calculate the pressure exerted when the chlorine is treated as a perfect (ideal) gas giving your answer in terms of kPa

PV=nRT V=0.8 dm 3 =0.8 x 10 -3 m 3 P= nRT/V R= 8.31 J K -1 mol -1 T= 330 K n= mass/mr n = 15 g/ (2x35.5 g mol -1 ) n = 0.212 mol P = (0.212 mol x 8.31 J K -1 mol -1 x 330 K)/ 0.8 x 10 -3 m 3 P= 726000 Pap=72...

ii) The maximum permitted sulfate concentration in water is 250mg dm^-3, 200cm^3 of aqueous BaCl2 is added to 300cm^3 of water at the maximum permitted sulfate level, and a white precipitate formed. Calculate the minimum conc. (mol dm^3)of the BaCl2

250x10^-3= 0.25g dm -3 sulfate mr x moles = mass0.25 x 3/10 = 0.075 g sulfatemr sulfare = 32 + (4 x 16) = 96moles sulfate = 0.075/96 = 7.8125 x10 -4 Per equation above: moles SO 4 2- = moles Ba 2+ Concentrat...
