Question

Carbon monoxide reacts with oxygen to form carbon dioxide.

2 CO(g) + O2(g) → 2C02(8)

In a 1.00 L flask, 3.40 atm of CO reacts with 2.60 atm of O2. Assuming that the temperature remains constant, what is the final pressure in the flask?

4.30 atm

2.60 atm

3.40 atm

6.00 atm

Answer 1

Answer:

The total pressure in the flask =  4.30 atm

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Volume of the flask = 1.00 L

Pressure of CO = 3.40 atm

Pressure of O2 = 2.60 atm

Step 2: The balanced equation

2 CO(g) + O2(g) → 2C02

Step 3: Calculate the final pressure

3.40 atm of CO reacts with 1.70 atm of O2

There will remain 2.60 - 1.70 = 0.90 atm O2

There will be produced 3.40 atm of CO2

The total pressure in the flask = 0.90 atm + 3.40 atm = 4.30 atm

Answer 2

The study of chemicals and bonds is called chemistry. There are two types of elements and these are metals and nonmetals.

The correct answer is to option A which is 4.30atm.

What is atmospheric pressure?

• Atmospheric pressure, also known as barometric pressure, is the pressure within the atmosphere of Earth.
• A standard atmosphere is a unit of pressure defined as 101,325 Pa, which is equivalent to 760 mm Hg, 29.9212 inches Hg, or 14.696 psi.

The data given is as follows:-

• The volume of the flask = 1.00 L
• The pressure of CO = 3.40 atm
• The pressure of O2 = 2.60 atm

The balanced equation is as follows:-

• $2CO(g) + O_2(g) ----> 2C0_2$

Calculate the final pressure

3.40 atm of CO reacts with 1.70 atm of O2

There will remain $2.60 - 1.70 = 0.90$atm O2

There will be produced 3.40 atm of CO2

The total pressure in the flask = $0.90 atm + 3.40 atm = 4.30 atm$

Hence, the correct answer is 4.30atm.
