Chapter 6, Problem 6.120QE
Workers at a research station in the Antarctic collected a sample of air to test for airborne pollutants. They collected the sample in a 1.00-L container at 764 torr and −20 °C. Calculate the pressure in the container when it was opened for analysis in a particulate-free clean room in a laboratory in South Carolina, at a temperature of 22 °C.

The vapor pressure of mercury at 20 oC is 1.7 x 10-6 atm. Your lab partner breaks a mercury thermometer and spills most of the mercury onto the floor. The dimensions of the laboratory are 16.0 m x 8.0 m x 3.0 m (l x w x h). At 20 oC, calculate the mass (in grams) of the mercury vapor in the room. Determine if the concentration of mercury vapor exceeds air quality regulations of 5.0 x 10-2 mg/m3. How would you clean up this spell?
The volume of a sample of pure HCl gas was 289 mL at 24
°
C and 137 mmHg. It was completely dissolved in about 50 mL of water and titrated with an NaOH solution;
11.7 mL
of the NaOH solution was required to neutralize the HCl. Calculate the molarity of the NaOH solution.
Although ozone is an important component of the upper atmosphere, long-term exposure to ozone in the air we breathe can cause inflammation of the lung, impairment of lung defense mechanisms, and irreversible changes in lung structure. The EPA has set an 8 hour limit for ozone of 0.08 ppm as an air quality standard for cities. At the EPA limit, how many ozone molecules are present in 5.0 liters of air at 25 °C and 0.967 atm? (Hint: assume that air is an ideal gas and calculate the total number of molecules there are in 5.0 L. Then use the definition of ppm.)

- The atmosphere is a highly complex gaseous mixture that sustains life on Earth. Approximately 99% of the air is composed of nitrogen (N2) and oxygen (O2). The remaining 1% is made up of a variety of other gases, including carbon monoxide (CO), hydrogen (H2), and ammonia (NH3), among many others. Because most of the gases that comprise the atmosphere are present at very low levels (<0.002%), their quantities are often expressed in parts per million (ppm) or parts per billion (ppb) rather than as a percent.
