Answer:

Mole fraction N₂ = 0.336

Explanation:

Mole fraction of a gas can be determined in order to know the partial pressure of the gas, and the total pressure, in the mixture.

Total pressure in the mixture: Sum of partial pressure from all the gases

Total pressure = 183 mmHg + 443 mmHg + 693 mmHg =1319 mmHg

Mole fraction N₂ = Partial pressure N₂ / Total pressure

443 mmHg / 1319 mmHg = 0.336

Remember that mole fraction does not carry units

Answer:

The mol fraction of N2 is 0.336

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Partial pressure CH4 = 183 mm Hg

Partial pressure N2 = 443 mm Hg

Partial pressure O2 = 693 mm Hg

Step 2: Calculate total pressure

Total pressure = partial pressure CH4 + partial pressure N2 + partial pressure O2

Total pressure = 183 mm Hg + 443 mm Hg + 693 mm Hg

Total pressure = 1319 mm Hg

Step 3: Calculate mol fraction

Mol fraction = partial pressure / total pressure

Mol fraction N2 = 443 mm Hg / 1319 mm Hg

Mol fraction N2 = 0.336

The mol fraction of N2 is 0.336

How many moles of CO2 could fit in a 475 mL bag a -22° C and 855 mmHg?
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

The amount of moles of CO₂ is 0.026 moles

Explanation:

An ideal gas is a theoretical gas that is considered to be composed of point particles that move randomly and do not interact with each other. Gases in general are ideal when they are at high temperatures and low pressures.

The equation known as the ideal gas equation explains the relationship between the four variables P (Pressure), V (Volume), T (Temperature) and n (Amount of substance). The ideal gas law is expressed mathematically as:

P*V = n*R*T

where P represents the pressure of the gas, V its volume, n the number of moles of gas (which must remain constant), R the constant of the gases and T the temperature of the gas.

In this case:

  • P= 855 mmHg
  • V= 475 mL= 0.475 L
  • n= ?
  • R= 62.36367 \frac{mmHg*L}{mol*K}
  • T= -22°C= 251 °K

Replacing:

855 mmHg*0.475 L=n*62.36367 \frac{mmHg*L}{mol*K} *251 °K

Solving:

n=\frac{855 mmHg*0.475 L}{62.36367 \frac{mmHg*L}{mol*K} *251 K}

n= 0.026 moles

Heavy nuclides with too few neutrons to be in the band of stability are most likely to decay by what mode?
Margarita [4]

Answer:

Positron emission

Explanation:

Positron emission involves the conversion of a proton to a neutron. This process increases the mass number of the daughter nucleus by 1 while its atomic number remains the same. The new neutron increases the number of neutrons present in the daughter nucleus hence the process increases the N/P ratio.

A positron is usually ejected in the process together with an anti-neutrino to balance the spins.

We would like to make a golden standard kilogram in the shape of circular cylinder. The density of gold is 19.32 g/cm3. a) Find
iragen [17]

Explanation:

a)  Using the provided information about the density  of gold, the sample size, thickness, and the following  equations and comersion factors, find the area of   the gold leaf:

V=l \cdot w \cdot h=A \cdot h\\m=\rho \cdot V

Gold _{\rho}=19.32 \mathrm{g} / \mathrm{cm}^{3}

1 \mu=10^{-6} \mathrm{m}

First, find the volume of the sample and then find the area of the sample.

V=\frac{m}{\rho}=\frac{27.6 \mathrm{g}}{19.32 \mathrm{g} / \mathrm{cm}^{3}} \cdot\left(\frac{0.01 \mathrm{m}}{1 \mathrm{cm}}\right)^{3} =\frac{1.429 \times 10^{-6} \mathrm{m}^{3}}

V=A \cdot h \rightarrow A=\frac{V}{h}=\frac{1.429 \times 10^{-6} \mathrm{m}^{3}}{10^{-6} \mathrm{m}} \approx 1.429 \mathrm{m}^{2}

b.  Using the provided information from part a ), the radius of the cylinder, and the following equation for the volume of a cylinder, find the length of the fiber :

V=\pi r^{2} h \rightarrow h=\frac{V}{\pi r^{2}}

h=\frac{1.429 \times 10^{-6} \mathrm{m}^{3}}{\pi \cdot\left(2.5 \times 10^{-6} \mathrm{m}\right)^{2}} \approx 72778 \mathrm{m}

If a 300.0 ml sample of a gas is heated at constant pressure from 25.0ºc to 55.0ºc, its new volume is _____ ml?
jekas [21]

 The new  volume is    330.2 ml


<u><em>calculation</em></u>

 The new  volume is  calculated using  the Charles  law formula

that is  V1/T1= V2/T2

where T1= 25.0  c  into kelvin  =  25 +273  = 298 K

         V1=  300.0 ml

       T2  = 55.0  c  into kelvin = 273   +55  =328  K

      V2 =  ? ml


make V2  the   subject of the formula  by  multiplying  both side by T2

V2= V1T2/ T1

V2 =[ (300.0 ml x 328 k)  / 298 k}  = 330.2 ml
