Answer:

D

Explanation:

We can use the mole ratio to calculate the partial pressure. The total number of moles is 0.2 + 0.2 + 0.1 = 0.5 moles

Now, we know that the mole fraction of the argon gas would be 0.2/0.5

The partial pressure is as follows. To calculate this, we simple multiply the number of moles by the total pressure.

0.2/0.5 * 5 = 1.0/0.5 = 2.00atm

Which best describes the motion of pentane molecules in liquid phase?

Ganezh [65]

Hydrocarbons may vary from state to state depending on the length of the carbon chain. For methane to butane, they are usually in gas form. Starting from pentane, they are in the liquid form. For very long carbon chains, that occur as solids. Now, it depends if the pentane is in a nonpolar liquid or polar liquid. Since pentane is nonpolar, it is miscible in the liquid solvent. The movements would most likely be free flowing. But if he solvent is polar, the molecules would repel with one another. In the end, it will form two liquid phases, on for the pentane and one for the polar solvent.

Quinine, an antimalarial drug, is 8.63% nitrogen. There are two nitrogen atoms per molecule. What is the molecular weight of qui

Furkat [3]

Answer:

324.18 g/mol

Explanation:

Let the molecular mass of the antimalarial drug, Quinine is x g/mol

According to question,

Nitrogen present in the drug is 8.63% of x

So, mass of nitrogen = $\frac {8.63}{100}\times x$

Also, according to the question,

2 atoms are present in 1 molecule of the drug.

Mass of nitrogen = 14.01 amu = 14.01 g/mol (grams for 1 mole)

So, mass of nitrogen = 14.01×2 = 28.02

These 2 must be equal so,

$\frac {8.63}{100}\times x=28.02$

solving for x, we get:

<u>x = 324.18 g/mol</u>

Which equation shows the proper setup to find the volume of a 0.250 M CaCl2 solution that contains 39.5 g of CaCl2?

Jlenok [28]

Molarity = number of mole of substance(n) / volume of solution (V).

n(CaCl2) = mass (CaCl2)/M(CaCl2)

M(CaCl2) = 40+2*35.5 = 111 g/mol

n(CaCl2) =39.5 g CaCl2*1 mol/111g

0.250 M = 39.5 g CaCl2*1 mol/111g*volume of solution (V).

volume of solution (V) = 39.5 g CaCl2*1 mol/(0.250 M*111g) = 1.42 L

Determine Z and V for steam at 250°C and 1800 kPa by the following: (a) The truncated virial equation [Eq. (3.38)] with the foll

makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that:

the temperature $T_1$ = 250 °C= ( 250+ 273.15 ) K = 523.15 K

Pressure = 1800 kPa

a)

The truncated viral equation is expressed as:

$\frac{PV}{RT} = 1 + \frac{B}{V} + \frac{C}{V^2}$

where; B = - $152.5 \ cm^3 /mol$ C = -5800 $cm^6/mol^2$

R = 8.314 × 10³ cm³ kPa. K⁻¹.mol⁻¹

Plugging all our values; we have

$\frac{1800*V}{8.314*10^3*523.15} = 1+ \frac{-152.5}{V} + \frac{-5800}{V^2}$

$4.138*10^{-4} \ V= 1+ \frac{-152.5}{V} + \frac{-5800}{V^2}$

Multiplying through with V² ; we have

$4.138*10^4 \ V ^3 = V^2 - 152.5 V - 5800 = 0$

$4.138*10^4 \ V ^3 - V^2 + 152.5 V + 5800 = 0$

V = 2250.06 cm³ mol⁻¹

Z = $\frac{PV}{RT}$

Z = $\frac{1800*2250.06}{8.314*10^3*523.15}$

Z = 0.931

b) The truncated virial equation [Eq. (3.36)], with a value of B from the generalized Pitzer correlation [Eqs. (3.58)–(3.62)].

The generalized Pitzer correlation is :

$T_c = 647.1 \ K \\ \\ P_c = 22055 \ kPa \\ \\ \omega = 0.345$

$T__{\gamma}} = \frac{T}{T_c}$

$T__{\gamma}} = \frac{523.15}{647.1}$

$T__{\gamma}} = 0.808$

$P__{\gamma}} = \frac{P}{P_c}$

$P__{\gamma}} = \frac{1800}{22055}$

$P__{\gamma}} = 0.0816$

$B_o = 0.083 - \frac{0.422}{T__{\gamma}}^{1.6}}$

$B_o = 0.083 - \frac{0.422}{0.808^{1.6}}$

$B_o = 0.51$

$B_1 = 0.139 - \frac{0.172}{T__{\gamma}}^{ \ 4.2}}$

$B_1 = -0.282$

The compressibility is calculated as:

$Z = 1+ (B_o + \omega B_1 ) \frac{P__{\gamma}}{T__{\gamma}}$

$Z = 1+ (-0.51 +(0.345* - 0.282) ) \frac{0.0816}{0.808}$

Z = 0.9386

$V= \frac{ZRT}{P}$

$V= \frac{0.9386*8.314*10^3*523.15}{1800}$

V = 2268.01 cm³ mol⁻¹

c) From the steam tables (App. E).

At $T_1 = 523.15 \ K \ and \ P = 1800 \ k Pa$

V = 0.1249 m³/ kg

M (molecular weight) = 18.015 gm/mol

V = 0.1249 × 10³ × 18.015

V = 2250.07 cm³/mol⁻¹

R = 729.77 J/kg.K

Z = $\frac{PV}{RT}$

Z = $\frac{1800*10^3 *0.1249}{729.77*523.15}$

Z = 0.588
