PROBLEM SET

CHEMISTRY FOR ENGINEERS

Name:__________________________________________________ Date:__________
Course and Section: _________________________

Instructions: Answer the following problems and show complete solution. Express your
answers in four decimal places.

1. A sample of gas occupies a volume of 225 ml at a pressure of 720 torr and a temperature of
20 Celsius. Calculate the new pressure if the volume is increased to 350ml, at constant
temperature.
2. In the electrolysis of aqueous sodium chloride, Cl2 gas is produced at the anode and H2 gas
at the cathode. Write the half reactions that take place and solve for the E standard.
3. How many grams of hydrogen could be liberated by a current of 100 A flowing for 20
minutes.
4. Calculate the potential for the reaction Fe + Mg2+ è Mg + Fe2+ when the concentration of
Fe2+ ion is 0.010 M and Mg2+ concentration is 0.0010 M. Write the cell notation.
5. Calculate the potential, E for the following reaction.
Zn2+ + 2Na =====> 2Na+ + Zn
[Zn2+] = 1.0 x 10-3 M
[Na+]=1.0 x 10-4 M
Solve for the kredox
Write the cell notation
6. The first step in the process is the production of 2-methylpropene.
C4 H10O→ C4 H8+ H2 O
4C(s) + 5H2(g) + ½O2(g) → C4 H10O ΔH = -335 kJ mol-1
4C(s) + 4H2(g) → C4 H8(g) ΔH = -17 kJ mol-1
H2(g) + ½O2(g) → H2 O(g) ΔH = -242 kJ mol-1
7. What is the heat in Joules required to melt 25 grams of ice from -5 deg C to 78 deg C?
What is the heat in calories?
8. What is the heat released in Joules required for the steam at 120 deg C to solidify to 50
grams of ice from 150 deg C to -3 deg C.
9. The reaction for the combustion of ethane is shown by the balanced reaction below:
__C2H6 + __O2 à __ H2O + __CO2
1.45 g C2H6 was burned in the presence of 4.50 g O2. Determine the limiting reagent.
10. Use the balanced equation below to answer the question that follows it. If 6.71 g CO and
8.00 g H2 are reacted, which is the limiting reagent?
__CO + __H2 à __C8H18 + __H2O
11. Compute for the cell potential of Copper and Silver. Cu2+ = [0.09 M] and Ag+1 =[2.03M]
