Chem 300 Worksheet: Ideal Gas Law & Daltons Law

Name________________________ Solve the following problems using either the Ideal Gas Law or Daltons Law of Partial Pressures. Write out the Ideal Gas Law in symbols and then plug in your values and solve for the answer. The answer must have appropriate units. Please use 3 sig figs. You need to use R in the Ideal Gas Law problems.
1. What volume would 3.5 moles of Ar gas occupy at a temperature of

250 K and a pressure of 700 mm of Hg ? (77.95 L)

2. If 7.10 g of Cl2 gas, 3.00 g of He gas , and 2.00 g of H2 gas are placed

in the same container at a total pressure of 101.3 kPa, what is the partial pressure of each gas?(PCl2 =5.48 kPa, PHe= 41.08 kPa, PO2= 54.76 kPa)

3. What pressure would 50 g of CO2 exert in a 50 mL container at a

temperature of 25 o C ?(P= 558 atm)

4. 10.00 g of Ne gas , 44.8 L of Xe gas measured at STP, and

9.03 x 10 23 molecules of Ar are all placed in the same container at a total pressure of 800 mm of Hg. Calculate the partial pressure of each gas.(PNe= 99.1 mmHg, PXe= 400.5 mmHg, PAr= 300.4 mmHg)

5. If 1 L of O2 gas, 2 L of H2 gas, 3 L of Cl2 gas, and 4 L of CO2 gas (all

measured at the same temperature and pressure) are all placed in the same container at a total pressure of 760 Torr, calculate the partial pressure of each gas.(PO2= 76.0 Torr, PH2= 152 Torr, PCl2=228 Torr, PCO2= 304 Torr)

6. If just the Cl2 gas is removed from the container in question number

5, what is the total pressure of the remaining gases in the container? ( 532 Torr)

7. If STP conditions had been chosen as 1 mole of a gas at 298 K,

9209 atm, and 26.55 L, would the value of R, the Ideal Gas Law constant, be different? Prove your answer!(No difference in R)

8. If O2 molecules make up 20.5 % of the molecules in the atmosphere,

what is the partial pressure of O2 at sea level if the total pressure of the atmosphere at sea level is 14.7 psi ? (PO2= 3.01 psi)

9. What would the pressure be inside a CO2 fire extinguisher if it was

designed to hold 5000 g of CO2 at a temperature of 25 o C and the internal volume of the extinguisher is 40.0 L?(P= 69.5 atm)

10.

If 1.743 x 10 22 molecules of H2O are present in 24.13 L of saturated air at a temperature of 25 o C, what is the vapor pressure, in mm of Hg(partial pressure) of the water in the saturated air at 25 o C ? (Big Hint: Use the Ideal Gas Law!!! ) (PH2O= 22.3 mm Hg)

11. When methane gas, CH4 , burns with O2 gas, CO2 gas and water

vapor are formed according to the equation below: CH4 + 2 O2 = CO2 + 2 H2O.

.16 g of CH4 are burned completely by .64 g of O2 inside a closed container . No CH4 or O2 are left over. Only CO2 gas and H2O gas are formed inside the container. When the reaction stops, the total pressure inside the container is 101.3 kPa, the temperature is 25 o C, and the volume of the container is 734 mL. What is the partial pressure of the CO2 gas inside the container? ( Big Hint: Do stoichiometry first, then use one of theses two gas laws!!!! ) (P= 33.77 kPa)
