Natural gas is very abundant in many Middle Eastern oil fields. However, the costs of shipping the gas to markets in other parts of the world are high because it is necessary to liquefy the gas, which is mainly methane and has a boiling point at atmospheric pressure of −164°C. One possible strategy is to oxidize the methane to methanol, CH3OH, which has a boiling point of 65°C and can therefore be shipped more readily. Suppose that 10.7×109 ft3 of methane at atmospheric pressure and 25°C is oxidized to methanol. a. What volume of methanol is formed if the density of CH3OH is 0.791 g/mL?

Step 1: Convert the volume of methane from cubic feet to liters.
Step 2: Use the ideal gas law to calculate the number of moles of methane. The ideal gas law is given by PV = nRT, where P is pressure, V is volume, n is the number of moles, R is the ideal gas constant, and T is temperature in Kelvin.
Step 3: Write the balanced chemical equation for the oxidation of methane to methanol: CH4 + 1/2 O2 -> CH3OH. From the equation, note that 1 mole of CH4 produces 1 mole of CH3OH.
Step 4: Calculate the number of moles of methanol produced, which is equal to the number of moles of methane reacted.
Step 5: Convert the moles of methanol to volume using the density of methanol. Use the formula: Volume = Mass / Density, where Mass = moles * molar mass of CH3OH.

주요 개념

질문에 올바르게 답하기 위해 반드시 이해해야 하는 핵심 개념들은 다음과 같습니다.

Ideal Gas Law

The Ideal Gas Law relates the pressure, volume, temperature, and number of moles of a gas through the equation PV = nRT. This law is essential for converting the volume of methane gas at given conditions into moles, which can then be used to determine the amount of methanol produced after the oxidation reaction.

Stoichiometry

Stoichiometry involves the calculation of reactants and products in chemical reactions based on balanced chemical equations. Understanding stoichiometry is crucial for determining the amount of methanol produced from the oxidation of methane, as it allows for the conversion of moles of methane to moles of methanol using the reaction's coefficients.

Stoichiometry Concept

Density and Volume Conversion

Density is defined as mass per unit volume and is a key factor in converting between mass and volume. In this context, knowing the density of methanol allows for the calculation of the volume of methanol produced from its mass, which is derived from the stoichiometric calculations of the oxidation reaction.
