Nickel carbonyl, Ni(CO)4 is one of the most toxic substances known. The present maximum allowable concentration in laboratory air during an 8-hr workday is 1 ppb (parts per billion) by volume, which means that there is one mole of Ni(CO)4 for every 109 moles of gas. Assume 23?C and 1.00 atm pressure. What mass of Ni(CO)4 is allowable in a laboratory that is 14ft X 22ft X 9ft ?

Answer from: ohamieem

The mass of Ni(CO)_4 allowable in the laboratory is 4599.5 grams

Explanation:

To calculate the volume of cuboid, we use the equation:

$V=l\times b\times h$

where,

V = volume of cuboid

l = length of cuboid = 14 ft

b = breadth of cuboid = 22 ft

h = height of cuboid = 9 ft

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$V=14\times 22\times 9=2772ft^3=78503.04L$ (Conversion factor: 1ft^3=28.32L

To calculate the moles of gas, we use the equation given by ideal gas which follows:

PV=nRT

where,

P = pressure of the gas = 1.00 atm

V = Volume of the gas = 78503.04 L

T = Temperature of the gas = 23^oC=[23+273]K=296K

R = Gas constant = $0.0821\text{ L. atm }mol^{-1}K^{-1}$

n = number of moles of hydrogen gas = ?

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$1.00atm\times 78503.04L=n\times 0.0821\text{ L.atm }mol^{-1}K^{-1}\times 296K\\\\n=\frac{1.00\times 78503.04}{0.0821\times 296}=3230.4mol$

Applying unitary method:

For every 109 moles of gas, the moles of Ni(CO)_4 present are 1 moles

So, for 3230.4 moles of gas, the moles of Ni(CO)_4 present will be = $\frac{1}{109}\times 3230.4=26.94mol$

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$

Moles of Ni(CO)_4 = 26.94 moles

Molar mass of Ni(CO)_4 = 170.73 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$26.94mol=\frac{\text{Mass of }Ni(CO)_4}{170.73g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of }Ni(CO)_4=(26.94mol\times 170.73g/mol)=4599.5g$

Hence, the mass of Ni(CO)_4 allowable in the laboratory is 4599.5 grams

Answer from: Quest

definition

entropy is a measure of the randomness or the extent of disorder of a chemical process.

enthalpy is a measure of the heat change of a reaction occurring at a constant pressure.

measurement units:

entropy is measured in joule per kelvin (jk⁻¹) whereas enthalpy is measured in joule per mole (jmol⁻¹)

requirements:

entropy has no requirements or limits, and its change is measured by the division between the heat change of the chemical process and the temperature.

in contrast, enthalpy can only be related to the heat change of the reaction under standard conditions.
