The air pressure in Denver, Colorado is about 83 percent of the air pressure in Miami Beach, which is at about sea level. Given

that the air pressure in Miami Beach is 760 mm Hg and oxygen makes up 21 percent of the air in Miami Beach, what are the percentage of oxygen and the partial pressure of oxygen in Denver

Answer:

Explanation:

mass ratio of oxygen and nitrogen in air at Miami

= 21 : 79

ratio of their moles

= \frac{21}{32} : \frac{79}{28}     ( mol weight of oxygen is 32 and of nitrogen is 28 )

=  .65625 : 2.8214

= 1 : 4.3

This ratio will also be maintained in the air of Denver though total pressure decreases there.

Partial pressure of oxygen in air at both the places

mole fraction of oxygen

= \frac{1}{( 1 +4.3)}

= .18868

partial pressure of oxygen at Denver

= .18868 x .83 x 760

= 119 mm.

Brrunno [24]

Answer:

The volume that this same amount of air will occupy in his lungs when he reaches a depth of 124 m is - 0.27 L.

Explanation:

Using Boyle's law  

{P_1}\times {V_1}={P_2}\times {V_2}

Given ,  

V₁ = 3.6 L  

V₂ = ?

P₁ = 1.0 atm

P₂ = 13.3 atm

Using above equation as:

{P_1}\times {V_1}={P_2}\times {V_2}

{1.0\ atm}\times {3.6\ L}={13.3\ atm}\times {V_2}

{V_2}=\frac{{1.0}\times {3.6}}{13.3}\ L

{V_2}=0.27\ L

<u>The volume that this same amount of air will occupy in his lungs when he reaches a depth of 124 m is - 0.27 L.</u>

The table above summarizes data given to a student to evaluate the type of change that took place when substance X was mixed wit
Tamiku [17]

The question is incomplete, the complete question is;

The table above summarizes data given to a student to evaluate the type of change that took place when substance X was mixed with water. The student claimed that the data did not provide enough evidence to determine whether a chemical or physical change took place and that additional tests were needed. Which of the following identifies the best way to gather evidence to support the type of change that occurred when water and Xwere mixed?

A. Measuring the melting point of the mixture of water and X

B. Adding another substance to the mixture of water and X to see whether a solid forms

C Measuring and comparing the masses of the water,  X, and the mixture of water and X

D Measuring the electrical conductivities of X and the mixture of water and X

Answer:

D Measuring the electrical conductivities of X and the mixture of water and X

Explanation:

Unfortunately, I am unable to reproduce the table here. However, from the table,  the temperature of the of the mixture of the solid X and water was 101.6°C. This is above the boiling point of water and way below the temperature of the solid X.

This goes a long way to suggest that there was some kind of interaction between the water and X which accounted for the observed temperature of the system of X in water.

The only way we can be able to confirm if X actually dissolved in water is to measure the conductivity of the water. dissolved solids increase the conductivity of water.

Give the number of significant figures in this number: 40.00
Tatiana [17]

A significant figure is every symbol that made the number itself.

In this case, the number 40.00 has four figures but only two of them are significant 40, this is because you haven't got any more decimals than the first zero.

If you have a case with zeros in front, you take to the first non zero digits.

For example, 0.071004 you wold express as 0.071 and those 7, and 1 are the significant ones.

What is the oxidation number of pt in k2ptcl6?
padilas [110]
Your compound is K_{2}PtCl_{6}.

Remember that the oxidation numbers in a neutral compound must add up to zero. Cl has an oxidation number of -1 because it is a halogen K has an oxidation number of +1 because it is an alkali metal, which exhibits an oxidation state of +1 in compounds.

Since you have 6 atoms of Cl, you have -1(6) = -6 for the Cl. Since you 2 atoms of K, you have +1(2) = +2 for the K. The oxidation number of Pt must make all the oxidation numbers add up to zero:
+2 + (-6) + oxidation number of Pt = 0
-4 + oxidation number of Pt = 0
Oxidation number of Pt = 4
