28. A sample of oxygen is collected over water at 22°C and 752 mmHg in a 125 ml flask. The vapor pressure o water at 22°C is

a) partial pressure of O2 = total pressure - vapor pressure of H2O

= 752 - 19.8 =732.2 mmHg

b) moles of dry gas are calculated using ideal gas equation PV = nRT

n = PV/RT

P = 732.2 mm = 732.2/760 atm

V = 125mL = 0.125L

T= 22C = 22+273 = 295 K

Thus n = [732.2/760]atmx 0.125L /0.0821l.atm/mol.K x295K

=0.00497 mol

c) moles of wet gas calculated using ideal gas equation similarly using P = 752mm

thus

n = [752/760]atmx 0.125L /0.0821l.atm/mol.K x295K

=0.00510mol

d) 0.0250g of N2 added

moles of N2 = 0.0250g/28g/mol =8.92x10-4 mol

partial pressure of N2 = nRT/V

= 8.92x10-4 molx0.0821 L.atm/mol.K x295K/ 0.125 L

=0.173 atm =131.48 mmHg

e)Total pressure after N2 is added =[ Partial pressure of O2 + vapor pressure of H2O] + partial presure of N2

= pressure before additon + partial pressure of N2

= 752 + 131.48 =883.48 mmHg
