7. A person wakes up early in the morning and steps out on to the balcony of her hotel at Myrtle Beach. With a stretch of the arms, she says, "Ahhh, a breath of sea air!" If a breath of air is 2.4 L at body temperature (28.0 oC), how many molecules of oxygen are there in that "breath of fresh air?" (Air is 21% oxygen by volume.)
8. A 1.007 gram sample of an unknown gas exerts a pressure of 715 mm Hg in a 452 ml container at 23 oC. What is the molar mass of the gas?
9. Iron reacts with hydrochloric acid to produce iron(II) chloride and hydrogen gas.
