g of
Calcium carbonate were formed. What volume of Carbon dioxide at 15oC and
775 mm Hg must have been bubbled into a solution of Calcium hydroxide to give th

quantity of Calcium carbonate?
3. An 11.2 L container is filled with H2(g) at STP. Then 40.0 g of liquid Br2(g)
is
introduced and the mixture is heated to 101oC. At this temperature, the reaction

8. Ammonia reacts with Oxygen gas to produce Nitrogen gas and water vapour
according to the chemical equation:
2NH3(g) + 3/2O2(g) N2(g) + H2O(g)

react with 10.0 L of NH3(g) at 273 K and 2.00 atm?
9. The density of a certain gas at 28oC and 740 mm Hg is 2.53 g/L. Assuming that
the
gas behaves ideally, calculate its molar mass.
10. Determine the density of UF6(g) at 25oC and 752 mm Hg.

. What
is the molar mass of the gas? (2 marks)
12. A gas consisting of only Carbon and Hydrogen has an empirical formula of CH2
. The
gas has a density of 1.65 g/L at 27oC and 734 torr. Determine the molar mass and
the
molecular formula of the gas. (3 marks)
13. Silicon tetrachloride (SiCl4) and trichlorosilane (SiHCl3) are both starting
materials
for the production of electronics grade silicon. Calculate the densities of pure
SiCl4
and pure SiHCl3 vapour at 85oC and 758 torr. (4 marks)
14. The total mass that can be lifted by a balloon is given by the difference be
tween the
mass of air displaced by the balloon and the mass of the gas inside the balloon.
Consider a hot air balloon that approximates a sphere 5.00 m in diameter and con
tains
air heated to 65oC. The surrounding air temperature is 21oC. The pressure in the
balloon is equal to the atmospheric pressure, which is 745 torr.
a. What total mass can the balloon lift? Assume that the average molar mass of
air is 29.0 g/mol. (12 marks)
b. If the balloon is filled with enough Helium at 21oC and 745 torr to achieve t
he
same volume as part a, what total mass can the balloon lift? (3 marks)
c. What mass could the hot air balloon in part a lift if it were on the ground i
n
Denver, Colorado, where the typical atmospheric pressure is 6.30 x 102 torr?
