Молярный объём газа при НУ

Экспериментальное определение 22,4 л/моль с использованием бутана

Gas Laws Intermediate (High School) 35 мин ~$6,00

Цель

Определить молярный объём бутана при НУ, измерив массу и объём газа, выпускаемого из зажигалки.

Предпосылки

A butane lighter releases pure C₄H₁₀ gas. By weighing the lighter before and after releasing gas into a water-displacement collection system, and measuring the volume collected, the molar volume can be calculated and compared to the theoretical 22.4 L/mol at STP.

Предупреждения по безопасности

  • Butane is extremely flammable — NO open flames during the experiment
  • Ensure adequate ventilation
  • Do not inhale butane

Требуемые СИЗ

goggles

Материалы

  • Butane lighter (1)
    Disposable, transparent preferred
  • Distilled water (1 L)
  • Ice (as needed)
    Optional, for STP correction

Оборудование

Pneumatic trough or large container Graduated cylinder (500 mL or 1 L) Analytical balance (0.01 g) Thermometer Barometer Rubber tubing

Процедура

1

Weigh the butane lighter on the analytical balance. Record the mass to 0.01 g.

2 мин
2

Fill the graduated cylinder with water, invert it in the pneumatic trough.

3 мин
3

Connect rubber tubing to the lighter nozzle. Submerge the other end under the graduated cylinder.

3 мин No flames nearby
4

Release butane slowly into the inverted cylinder, collecting 200-400 mL of gas.

5 мин Butane is flammable
5

Record the volume of gas collected. Equalize water levels first.

2 мин
6

Reweigh the lighter. The mass difference is the mass of butane released.

2 мин
7

Record temperature and pressure. Calculate moles of butane (M=58.12 g/mol). Correct volume to STP using combined gas law.

8 мин
8

Calculate molar volume = V(STP)/n. Compare with theoretical 22.4 L/mol.

5 мин

Ожидаемые результаты

0.3 g butane = 0.00516 mol should occupy about 116 mL at STP. Molar volume should be approximately 22-24 L/mol, within 5-10% of the theoretical 22.4 L/mol.

Уборка

Ensure no butane remains in the room — ventilate well. Drain water apparatus. Store lighter safely.
