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

Gasoline has a density of 0.749 g/mL. There are 454 grams in a pound and 3.7854 litres in a gallon. How many pounds does 19.2 ga
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

119.9 pound

Explanation:

Given data:

Density of gasoline = 0.749 g/mL

Volume of gasoline = 19.2 gal (19.2× 37854 =72679.9 mL)

Mass = ?

Solution:

Density:

Density is equal to the mass of substance divided by its volume.

Units:

SI unit of density is Kg/m3.

Other units are given below,

g/cm3, g/mL , kg/L

Formula:

D=m/v

D= density

m=mass

V=volume

Now we will put the values in formula:

d = m/v

0.749 g/mL = m/ 72679.9 mL

m = 54437.25 g

gram to gallon:

54437.25/ 454

m = 119.9 pound

What is the ph of a solution made by combining 157 ml of 0.35 m nac2h3o2 with 139 ml of 0.46 m hc2h3o2? the ka of acetic acid is
ExtremeBDS [4]
The first step is to calculate the molarity of each compound:
final volume of solution = 157 + 139 = 296 mL
molarity of <span>nac2h3o2 = (157 x 0.35) / 296 = 0.1856 molar
molarity of </span><span>hc2h3o2 = (139 x 0.46) / 296 = 0.216 molar

Then, we calculate the pH as follows:
pKa of acetic acid = -log(</span><span>1.75 × 10^-5) = 4.7569
pH = pKa + </span><span> log ([salt] / [acid]) 
     = </span>4.7569 + log(0.1856 / 0.216)
     = 4.691

A hypothetical substance has a melting point of −10°C and a boiling point of 155°C. If this substance is heated from 2°C to the
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

The specific heat capacity of liquid and the het of vaporization is used.

.

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

A substance at temperature 2°C.

The substance has a melting point of −10°C and a boiling point of 155°C.

The initial temperature is 2°C which is between the melting point (-10°C) and the boiling point (155°C). At 2°C, the substance is liquid.

At 155°C, the substance changes from liquid to gas.

To calculate the heat gained for the change of 2°C liquid to 155°C liquid, specific heat capacity of the liquid (C) is needed.

To calculate the heat gained for the change of liquid to 155°C gas, heat of vaporization (D) is needed.

The <u>specific heat of the solid is not used</u> because the substance is changed from liquid to gas. it doesn't come in the state of solid.

<u>Heat of fusion is not used</u>, because it's used when there is a change from its state from a solid to a liquid,

<u>The specific heat capacity of the gas is not used</u>, because the substance only formes gas after reaching 155 °C

Gordon wrote this passage about mechanical waves for his physics class. But he got most of his facts mixed up. Only one sentence
Zinaida [17]

Answer: The correct answer is "Mechanical waves can apply pressure to and push on objects in their path".

Explanation:

Mechanical wave is wave in which there is an oscillation of the wave. The energy is transferred through a medium. Mechanical waves can apply pressure to and push on their path. Only the energy is transferred not the matter.

Mechanical waves are of three types: Transverse wave, Longitudinal wave and Surface wave. The examples of the mechanical wave are sound wave and water wave.

Sound is a pressure disturbance which travels through a medium. It consists of compression and rarefaction.

The mechanical waves need a medium for their propagation. They travel faster in denser medium.

Therefore, the correct option is (B).
