space capsules operate with an oxygen content of about 34%. assuming a total pressure of 780 mm Hg in the space capsule, what is
1 answer:
265.2 mmHg is the partial pressure of oxygen in 780 mmHg of total pressure.
Explanation:
The partial pressure of a gas is defined as the individual pressure of the gas in total mixture. In an ideal gas all the constituent gases have partial pressure some of which will give total pressure of the gas.
The partial pressure of a gas is calculated by
total pressure x mole fraction of the gas.
Mole fraction of the oxygen present is 0.34 as it is 34% of the total gas.
= 0.34 is the mole fraction
Total pressure is given as 780 mm Hg
The partial pressure can be calculated using the above formula:
Putting the values in equation:
780 x 0.34
= 265.2 mm Hg is the partial pressure of oxygen.

Answer : The name of given unit cell is, FCC (face-centered cubic unit cell)
Explanation :
Unit cell : It is defined as the smallest 3-dimensional portion of a complete space lattice which when repeated over the and again in different directions produces the complete space lattice.
There are three types of unit cell.
- SCC (simple-centered cubic unit cell)
- BCC (body-centered cubic unit cell)
- FCC (face-centered cubic unit cell)
In SCC, the atoms are arranged at the corners.
The number of atoms of unit cell = Z = 1
In BCC, the atoms are arranged at the corners and the body center.
The number of atoms of unit cell = Z = 2
The given unit cell is, FCC because the atoms are arranged at the corners and the center of the 6 faces.
The number of atoms of unit cell = Z = 4
Thus, the name of given unit cell is, FCC (face-centered cubic unit cell)
