How many grams of CO2,(g) would be found in a 5.6 L container at 23oC that has a pressure of 760 mm Hg?

Mass = 10.12 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Volume of CO₂ = 5.6 L

Pressure = 760 mmHg

Temperature = 23°C

Mass of CO₂ = ?

Solution:

PV = nRT

P= Pressure

V = volume

n = number of moles

R = general gas constant = 0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K  

T = temperature in kelvin

Now we will convert the temperature.

23+273 = 296 K

760/760 = 1 atm

1 atm × 5.6 L = n × 0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K  × 296K

5.6 atm.L =  n × 24.30 atm.L/ mol

n = 5.6 atm.L  / 24.30 atm.L/ mol

n = 0.23 mol

Mass of CO₂:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.23 mol × 44 g/mol

Mass = 10.12 g

the population of unionid mussels in the hudson river decreased after zebra mussels were introduced. zebra mussels, a nonnative species, competed with the unionid mussels for food. the zebra mussels were able to outcompete the unionid mussels, allowing the zebra mussel population to increase dramatically over six years. the unionid mussel population decreased due to a lack of food.

hope this :
