1. In the diagram below, nitrogen molecules are represented by unshaded spheres, oxygen molecules by gray spheres, and chlorine molecules by black spheres. If the total pressure in the container is 900. mm Hg, what is the partial pressure of chlorine? 2. What is the partial pressure of helium in a gas mixture of He, Xe and Ar if total pressure is 5.35 atm, temperature is 55 °C, mole fraction of xenon is 0.298, and mole fraction of argon is 0.433? 3. A glass vessel contains 28 g nitrogen gas. Assuming ideal behavior, which of the following processes below would double the pressure exerted on the walls of the vessel? a) adding enough mercury at room temperature to fill one- half the container b) raising the temperature of the container from 30 °C to 60 °C. c) raising the temperature of the container from -73 °C to 127 °C d) adding 28 g nitrogen gas 4. A 12.5 L scuba diving tank contains a helium-oxygen mixture made up of 24.2 g He and 4.32 g Oxygen at 298 K. Calculate the mole fraction and partial pressure of each component in the mixture and the total pressure of the mixture. 5. A mixture of chromium and zinc weighing 0.362 g was reacted with an excess of HCl. After all the metals in the mixture are reacted, 0.225 L of hydrogen gas was collected at 300.0K and 0.987 atm. Determine the mass percent of Zinc in the metal sample. Zinc reacts with HCl to produce zinc chloride and H2 gas. Chromium reacts with HCl to produce chromium (III) chloride and H2 gas. 6. Pressurized carbon dioxide inflators can be used to inflate a bicycle tire that has gone flat. These inflators use metal cartridges that contain 16.9 g CO2. At 298K, to what pressure (in psi) on the pressure gauge can the carbon dioxide in the cartridge inflate a 3.45 L mountain bike tire? (Note: the gauge pressure is the difference between the total pressure and the atmospheric pressure, which for this problem is 14.7 psi/1 atm).

A metal container contains a gas that is fixed in volume. If the pressure is initially 650 mm Hg and the temperature is increased from 480 K to 700 K, what is the new pressure? Show your work. A gas has a volume of 4.5 L at STP. If the conditions are changed to SATP, what is the new volume of the gas? Show your work. A gaseous fluorocarbon is used as a coolant in refrigerators. If a fixed volume of this gas has a pressure of 700 kPa at 227°C, its pressure at 27°C is. Read the following list of conditions and temperatures. I. The boiling point of water is 373 K. II. On a very hot day, the temperature can reach 313 K. III. On a very cold day, the temperature can reach 0 K. IV. Normal body temperature is 310 K. The conditions listed with accurate temperatures are: 5.) A 2.0-L helium tank at a pressure of 15.0 MPa in a room kept at 22ºC is used to blow up balloons. The balloons, once blown up, have a volume of 2.0 L and maintain a pressure of 115 kPa without breaking. The maximum number of balloons that can be filled with this tank is 6.) A weather balloon on the ground has a volume of 200 L at 25.0°C when filled with helium to a pressure of 100 kPa. The volume of the balloon at 9000 m, where the temperature is -50.0°C and the pressure is 19.5 kPa, is 7.) As the temperature of a fixed volume of a gas decreases, the pressure will__________ 8.) The boiling point of liquid nitrogen is -196°C. An equivalent temperature in the Kelvin scale is 9.) The scientist who is credited with the statement "At constant pressure, the volume of a gas is directly proportional to the kelvin temperature" is.
