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.

\frac{34}{100} = 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.

Calculate the number of grams of xenon in 4.658 g of the compound xenon tetrafluoride.
andrezito [222]

Answer:

The mass of xenon in the compound is 2.950 grams

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of XeF4 = 4.658 grams

Molar mass of XeF4 = 207.28 g/mol

Step 2: Calculate moles of XeF4

Moles XeF4 = mass XeF4 / molar mass XeF4

Moles XeF4 = 4.658 grams / 207.28 g/mol

Moles XeF4 = 0.02247 moles

Step 3: Calculate moles of xenon

XeF4 → Xe + 4F-

For 1 mol xenon tetrafluoride, we have 1 mol of xenon

For 0.02247 moles XeF4 we have 0.02247 moles Xe

Step 4: Calculate mass of xenon

Mass xenon = moles xenon * molar mass xenon

Mass xenon = 0.02247 moles * 131.29 g/mol

Mass xenon = 2.950 grams

The mass of xenon in the compound is 2.950 grams

How many moles of oxygen atoms are in 132.2 g of MgSO4?
zzz [600]

4.4moles of oxygen atoms

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of MgSO₄ = 132.2g

Unknown:

Number of moles of oxygen atoms = ?

Solution:

The number of moles is the quantity of substance that contains the avogadro's number of particles.

 To solve for this;

 Number of moles = \frac{mass}{molar mass}

Molar mass of MgSO₄ = 24 + 32 + 4(16) = 120g/mole

  Number of moles = \frac{132.2}{120} = 1.1 moles

In

     1 moles of MgSO₄ we have 4 moles of oxygen atoms

    1.1 moles of MgSO₄ contains 4 x 1.1 moles = 4.4moles of oxygen atoms

In Part A, you found the amount of product (1.80 mol P2O5 ) formed from the given amount of phosphorus and excess oxygen. In Par
Finger [1]

First step is to balance the reaction equation. Hence we get P4 + 5 O2 => 2 P2O5

Second, we calculate the amounts we start with

P4: 112 g = 112 g/ 124 g/mol – 0.903 mol

O2: 112 g = 112 g / 32 g/mol = 3.5 mol

Lastly, we calculate the amount of P2O5 produced.

2.5 mol of O2 will react with 0.7 mol of P2O5 to produce 1.4 mol of P2O5.

This is 1.4 * (31*2 + 16*5) = 198.8 g

Identify the most and the least acidic compound in each of the following sets.
il63 [147K]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Our answer options for this question are:

a. 2-chlorobutanoic acid:_______ 2-chlorobutanoic acid:_______ 3-chlorobutanoic acid:______.

b. 2,4-dinitrobenzoic acid:______ p-nitrobenzoic acid:______ p-bromobenzoic acid:_______.

c. p-cyanobenzoic acid:________ benzoic acid:_______ p-aminobenzoic acid:______

We have to check each set of molecules

<u>a. 2-chlorobutanoic acid,</u> <u>3-chlorobutanoic acid</u>

<u />

In this case, the difference between these molecules is the position of "Cl". If the chlorine atom is closer to the acid group, we will have a higher inductive effect. So, the bond O-H would be weaker and we will have more acidity. So, the molecule with more acidity is <u>2-chlorobutanoic acid</u> and the less acidic would be <u>3-chlorobutanoic acid.</u>

<u />

<u>b. 2,4-dinitrobenzoic acid,</u> <u>p-nitrobenzoic acid,</u> <u>p-bromobenzoic acid</u>

<u />

In this case, we have several structural differences. In all the structure, we have deactivating groups (Br and NO_2). If we have a deactivating group the acidity will increase. In the case of "Br", we have a weak deactivating, so, this will be the less acidic one (<u>p-bromobenzoic acid)</u>

in <u>2,4-dinitrobenzoic acid</u> we have two deactivating groups, therefore, this would be the most acid compound.

<u>c. p-cyanobenzoic acid</u>, <u>benzoic acid</u>, <u>p-aminobenzoic acid</u>

On these molecules, we have several structural differences. In <u>p-cyanobenzoic acid</u> we have a deactivating group, therefore in this molecule we will have more acidity. In the <u>p-aminobenzoic acid,</u> we have an activating group, so, this would be the less acidic compound.

<u />

See figure 1

I hope it helps!
