Paper For Above Instructions

This paper addresses various exercises from chapters 3, 4, 5, and 6, focusing on key concepts in chemistry such as Lewis symbols, molar mass, gas laws, and the kinetic molecular theory.

Exercise 3.14: Lewis Structures

The Lewis symbol represents the valence electrons of atoms. For the atoms provided:

  • Be (Beryllium): The Lewis symbol is Lewis structure of Be with two valence electrons depicted as dots.
  • B (Boron): The Lewis symbol is Lewis structure of B with three valence electrons.
  • F (Fluorine): The Lewis symbol is Lewis structure of F with seven valence electrons.
  • S (Sulfur): The Lewis symbol is Lewis structure of S with six valence electrons.

Exercise 3.48: Chemical Formulas

For the chemical formulas:

  • Aluminum Nitrate: The formula is Al(NO3)3.
  • Potassium Nitrate: The formula is KNO3.

Chapter 4, Exercise 4.28: Molar Mass Calculation

To find the mass of 15.0 moles of carbon (C), use the molar mass of carbon, which is approximately 12.01 g/mol. The calculation is:

Mass = Moles × Molar Mass = 15.0 mol × 12.01 g/mol = 180.15 g.

Chapter 5, Exercise 5.18: Pressure Conversion

The following conversions to atm are calculated using the conversion factors:

  • 128 cm Hg: 128 cm Hg × (1 atm / 76 cm Hg) ≈ 1.6842 atm
  • 255 torr: 255 torr × (1 atm / 760 torr) ≈ 0.3355 atm
  • 1405 mm Hg: 1405 mm Hg × (1 atm / 760 mm Hg) ≈ 1.8474 atm
  • 303 kPa: 303 kPa × (1 atm / 101.325 kPa) ≈ 2.99 atm

Chapter 5, Exercise 5.30: Kinetic Molecular Theory

The kinetic molecular theory explains the behavior of gases in terms of particle motion. It states that:

  • Gas particles are in constant, random motion.
  • They occupy much larger volumes than their individual sizes.
  • They do not exert significant forces on one another.

This theory can explain why aerosol cans are pressurized. Excessive heat increases particle kinetic energy, leading to higher pressure and the risk of explosion. Therefore, instructions discourage heating because the cans could burst due to increased internal pressure.

Chapter 6, Exercise 6.18: Additional Analysis

In this chapter, various applications of gas laws may be analyzed. For instance, understanding the ideal gas law (PV=nRT) helps predict how gas samples behave under various conditions.

Conclusion

The questions from the exercises comprehensively cover significant concepts in chemistry that pertain to atomic structure, chemical formulas, mole calculations, pressure conversions, and theoretical gas behavior. Mastery of these topics is essential in gaining a solid foundation in chemistry.
