Answer:

21.16 MPa

Explanation:

Partial pressure of oxygen = 5.62 MPa

Total gas pressure = 26.78 MPa

But

Total pressure of the gas= sum of partial pressures of all the constituent gases in the system.

This implies that;

Total pressure of the system = partial pressure of nitrogen + partial pressure of oxygen

Hence partial pressure of nitrogen=

Total pressure of the system - partial pressure of oxygen

Therefore;

Partial pressure of nitrogen= 26.78 - 5.62

Partial pressure of nitrogen = 21.16 MPa

Answer:

The partial pressure of Nitrogen gas in the tank = 21.16 MPa.

Explanation:

According to Dalton's Law of partial pressure for gases, the total pressure of a mixture of gas under unchanging conditions is a sum of the partial pressures of each of the individual constituent gas.

The mixture consists of Nitrogen and oxygen gas. Hence, mathematically,

Total Pressure of the mixture = (Partial Pressure of Oxygen gas) + (Partial Pressure of Nitrogen gas)

Total Pressure of the mixture = 26.78 MPa.

Partial Pressure of Oxygen gas = 5.62 MPa.

Partial Pressure of Nitrogen gas = ?

26.78 = 5.62 + (Partial Pressure of Nitrogen gas)

Partial Pressure of Nitrogen gas = 26.78 - 5.62 = 21.16 MPa.

Hope this Helps!!!

2C3H6 (g) + 2NH3 (g) + 3O2 (G) -> 2C3H3N (g) + 6H2O (g)

First off.. not a chem board.. but n e way.

This is a limiting reagent problem.

set it up as a DA problem.(Dimension Analysis)

Start with what you want.

you want Grams of acrylonitrile (C3H3N)

so start with that (Using ACL in place of Acrylonitrile.. just for ease of typing)

(g) = (53 g of ACL/1mol ACL) (2 mols ACL/2 mol C3H6)/ (1mol C3H6/42 grams) (15.0 grams)

solve that you wiill get grams of Acrylonitrile created by 15 grams oc C3H6 = 18.9g

Same setup for the two other reactants.

so i did it and for

oxygen I got 11.04 grams

and for Ammonia i got 15.29 grams

So the most you can make is 11.04 grams because if you have ot make any more .. you will have to get more O2 .. but since you have only 10 grams of it .. that is the most u can make in this reaction.

Both the other reactants are in excess.

A waste collection tank can hold 18754 kg of methanol, which has a density of 0.788 g/cm3.
quester [9]
Given:
Mass of methanol, m = 18754 kg
Density of methanol, ρ = 0.788 g/cm³

By definition, the volume of methanol in the collection tank is
Volume  = mass/density
               = \frac{(18754 \, kg)*(10^{3} \,  \frac{g}{kg}) }{(0.788 \,  \frac{g}{cm^{3})} }  \\ \\ =2.38 \times 10^{7} \,  \frac{g}{cm^{3}}

Answer:  2.38 x 10⁷ g/cm³

A sample taken from a layer of mica in a canyon has 2.10 grams of potassium-40. A test reveals it to be 2.6 billion years old. H
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

\boxed{ \text{8.40 g}} 

Explanation:

The half-life of K-40 (1.3 billion years) is the time it takes for half of it to decay.  

After one half-life, half (50 %) of the original amount will remain.  

After a second half-life, half of that amount (25 %) will remain, and so on.  

We can construct a table as follows:  

 No. of                                 Fraction

<u>half-lives</u>      <u>    t/yr      </u>       <u>Remaining</u>  

      0               0                          1

      1                1.3  billion              ½

      2              2.6                          ¼

      3              3.9                          ⅛

We see that after 2 half-lives, ¼ of the original mass remains.

Conversely, if two half-lives have passed, the original mass must have been four times the mass we have now.

Original  mass = 4 × 2.10 g = \boxed{ \text{8.40 g}}

If the mass percentage composition of a compound is 72.1% Mn and 27.9% O, its empirical formula is
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

MnO- Manganese Oxide

Explanation:

Empirical formula: This is the formula that shows the ratio of elements

present in a  

compound.

   

How to determine Empirical formula

1. First arrange the symbols of the elements present in the compound

alphabetically to  determine the real empirical formula. Although, there

are exceptions to this rule, E.g H2So4

2. Divide the percentage composition by the mass number.

3. Then divide through by the smallest number.

4. The resulting answer is the ratio attached to the elements present in

a compound.

           

                                                                              Mn                         O    

                         

% composition                                                      72.1                      27.9    

                       

Divide by mass number                                       54.94                     16  

                                 

                                                                               1.31                      1.74    

                       

Divide by the smallest number                         1.31                      1.31                          

                                                                               1                    1.3

                                                 

The resulting ratio is 1:1

 

Hence the Empirical formula is MnO, Manganese oxide
