Q: A sample of gas is contained in a 2.0 L flask at 1.0 atm and 300 K. If the temperature is increased to 600 K while the pressure remains constant, what will be the new volume of the gas? (Assume ideal behavior.)

$$V_2$$ = $$V_1$$ \times \frac{$$T_2$$}{$$T_1$$} = 2.0\,\text{L} \times \frac{600\,\text{K}}{300\,\text{K}} = 4.0\,\text{L}$$

Q: Which of the following is the correct conversion between pressure units?

$$1\,\text{atm} = 760\,\text{mmHg} = 760\,\text{torr}$$

Q: A solution is prepared by dissolving 10.0 g of NaCl (molar mass = 58.44 g/mol) in enough water to make 500.0 mL of solution. What is the molarity of the solution?

$$M = \frac{\text{moles of solute}}{\text{liters of solution}} = \frac{10.0\,\text{g} / 58.44\,\text{g/mol}}{0.500\,\text{L}} = 0.342\,\text{M}$$

Q: A 3.0 L sample of gas at 2.0 atm is compressed to 1.0 L at constant temperature. What is the final pressure?

$$P_2$$ = $$P_1$$ \times \frac{$$V_1$$}{$$V_2$$} = 2.0\,\text{atm} \times \frac{3.0\,\text{L}}{1.0\,\text{L}} = 6.0\,\text{atm}$$

Question 10

Which of the following statements about electrolytes is correct?

Accepted Answer

A strong electrolyte completely dissociates into ions in solution.

Question 11

Which of the following best explains why salt is spread on icy roads in winter?
