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.

Calcium hydroxide, Ca(OH)2, is used as a calcium nutritional supplement in some foods and beverages, such as orange juice. What
RSB [31]

Answer:

pH=11.08

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, since calcium hydroxide a strong base, its dissociation will completely result in both calcium and hydroxyl ions:

Ca(OH)_2\rightarrow Ca^{2+}+OH^-

Thus, the concentration of hydroxyl ions equals that of the calcium hydroxide, with which we could compute the pOH as shown below:

pOH=-log([OH^-]}=-log(0.0012)\\\\pOH=2.92

Now, the pH and the pOH are related by:

pOH+pH=14

Hence, the pH finally results:

pH=14-pOH=14-2.92\\pH=11.08

Best regards.

A 15.8 g sample contains 3.60 g F, 4.90 g H, and 7.30 g C. What is the percent composition of hydrogen in this sample?
deff fn [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is "32%".

Explanation:

The given values:

Weight of H,

= 4.9 g

Weight of sample,

= 15.8 g

Now,

The weight percentage of C will be:

= \frac{Weight \ of \ C}{Total \ weight}\times 100

By substituting the values, we get

= \frac{4.9}{15.8}\times 100

= 32 \ percent

Answer: The are bodies of rock or gas that are named for ancient gods.

Explanation:

Earth is the THIRD planet in the solar system. It support life of all living organisms.

VENUS is the second planet in our solar system. It is named after the Roman goddess of love and beauty.

MARS is the fourth planet in our solar system. It is named after the Roman goddess of war.

Thus, Venus and Mars, are EARTH NEIGHBORS
