A sample of 4.59 L of CO2 gas has a pressure of 7.56 atm. What volume (in Liters) would the gas occupy if the pressure was reduced to 2.57 atm and the temperature raised from 25.0oC to 39.0oC?

The answer to your question is V = 14.44 L

Explanation:

Data

Conditions 1                            Conditions 2

V1 = 4.69 L                               V2 = ?

P1 = 7.56 atm                           P2 = 2.57 atm

T1 = 25°C                                  T2 = 39°C

Process

1.- Convert the temperature to °K

T1 = 25 + 273 = 298°K

T2 = 39 + 273 = 312 °K

2.- Find V2 using the combined gas law

     (P1V1)/T1 = (P2V2)/T2

solve for V2

     V2 = (P1V1T2) / (T1P2)

substitution

     V2 = (7.56 x 4.69 x 312) / (298 x 2.57)

Simplify

     V2 = 11062.39 / 765.86

Result

     V2 = 14.44 L

chemical energy is stored in the chemical bonds of atoms and molecules. it can only be seen when it is released in a chemical reaction. when chemical energy is released, the substance from which the energy came is often changed into an entirely different substance.

this chemical reaction releases energy in the form of light and heat. chemical energy is the potential energy stored in the arrangement of atoms within molecules. breaking chemical bonds requires energy, while forming new chemical bonds releases energy.

the atp molecule can store energy in the form of a high energy phosphate bond joining the terminal phosphate group to the rest of the molecule. in this form,energy can be stored at one location, then moved from one part of the cell to another, where it can be released to drive other biochemical reactions.
