How many liters of fluorine gas, at 298 k and 0.98 atm, will react with 23.5 grams of potassium metal? show all of the work used to solve this problem. 2k + f2 2kf

For the reaction 2 K + F2 --> 2 KF,
consider K atomic wt. = 39
23.5 g of K = 0.603 moles, hence following the molar ratio of the balanced equation, 0.603 moles of potassium will use 0.3015 moles of F2. (number of moles, n = 0.3015)

Now, following the ideal gas equation, PV = nRT
P = 0.98 atm
V = unknown
n = 0.3015 moles
R = 82.057 cm^3 atm K^-1mole^-1 (unit of R chosen to match the units of other parameters; see the reference below)
T = 298 K
Solving for V,
V = (nRT)/P = (0.3015 mol * 82.057 cm^3 atm K^-1 mol^-1 * 298 K)/(0.98 atm)
solve it to get 7517.6 cm^3 as the volume of F2 = 7.5176 liters of F2 gas is needed.

It is true because i have took the test and it came out to be true

D)can be increased in a closed system
