What is the concentration of molecular oxygen (O2) in mol/L on a June day in Toronto when atmospheric pressure is 1.0 atm and the temperature is 25 oC? (Remember O2 is present at a concentration of 21% (or 21pph) in the atmosphere).

Respuesta :

Answer:

The concentration of mole evil at oxygen on that day is 0.00858 mol/L

Explanation:

Here, we want to calculate the concentration of molecular oxygen

The pressure on that day is 1.0 atm

Since oxygen is at a concentration of 21%, the pressure of oxygen will be 21/100 * 1 = 0.21 atm

Now let’s calculate the concentration;

From Ideal gas law;

PV = nRT

This can be written as;

P/RT = n/V

The term n/V refers to concentration;

Let’s make substitutions now;

P = pressure = 0.21 atm

R = molar gas constant = 0.0821 L•atm/mol•k

T = temperature = 25 = 25 + 273.15 = 298.15 K

Substituting these values, we have;

n/V = C = 0.21/(0.0821 * 298.15) = 0.00858 mol/L
