Suppose a gas mixture used for anesthesia contains 4.60 mol oxygen (O₂) and 6.00 mol nitrous oxide (N₂O). The total pressure of

the mixture is 2.00 atm. A mole fraction is defined as the moles of a specific component divided by the total number of moles present. What is the mole fraction of O₂ in this mixture?

Considering the definition of mole fraction, the mole fraction of O₂ in the mixture is 0.434.

<h3>Definition of mole fraction</h3>

The molar fraction is a way of measuring the concentration that expresses the proportion in which a substance is found with respect to the total moles of the solution.

In other words, the mole fraction expresses the concentration of solute in a solution as the ratio of moles of substance to total moles of solution:

mole fraction=\frac{moles of substance}{moles of solution}

<h3>Mole fraction of O₂ in this mixture</h3>

In this case, you know a gas mixture used for anesthesia contains 4.60 mol oxygen (O₂) and 6.00 mol nitrous oxide (N₂O).

So, the total moles of the solution can be calculated as:

Total moles = moles of oxygen (O₂) + moles of nitrous oxide (N₂O)

Then:

Total moles= 4.60 moles + 6 moles

Total moles= 10.60 moles

Finally, the more fraction of O₂ can be calculated as follow:

Mole fraction of O_{2} =\frac{moles of O_{2}}{total moles}

Mole fraction of O_{2} =\frac{4.60 moles}{10.6o moles}

Solving:

<u><em>Mole fraction O₂ = 0.434</em></u>

Finally, the mole fraction of O₂ in the mixture is 0.434.

The temperature in a town started out at 55 degrees. By the end of the day the temperature dropped to -6 degrees.
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

The choice of the answer is fourth option that is -61 degrees.

Therefore the temperature drop is -61°Centigrade.

Explanation:

Given:

The temperature in a town started out at 55 degrees

Start temperature = 55°Centigrade. (Initial temperature)

End of the Day      = -6°Centigrade. (Final temperature)

To Find:

How far did the temperature drop?

Solution:

We will have,

\textrm{Temperature drop}=\textrm{Final temperature}-\textrm{Initial temperature}

Substituting the above values in it we get

\textrm{Temperature drop}=-6-55\\\\\therefore \textrm{Temperature drop}=-61\° centigrade

Therefore the temperature drop is -61°Centigrade.

An organic compound is composed of 38.7% C, 9.70% H, 51.6% O. The compound has a molecular formula mass of 62.0g/mol.
Tcecarenko [31]

<span>B)<span>C2H6O<span>2
</span></span></span>
First, convert each percentage to grams: 38.7g, 9.70g, and 51.6g. 
Next, calculate the number of moles of each element, based on the number of grams given.
C = 3.23 mol
H = 8.91 mol
O = 3.23 mol
Set up the ratio of moles of each element:
C3.34H9.70O3.23. Convert the decimals to whole numbers by dividing by the smallest subscript, 3.23.
The empirical formula is CH3O.
Now, compute the formula mass, which is 31. Finally, divide the molecular mass by the formula mass, 62/31 = 2. Multiple the subscripts by 2 to get the molecular formula.

Based on the sign of E cell, classify these reactions as spontaneous or non spontaneous as written.? assume standard conditions.
sammy [17]
A electrochemical reaction is said to be spontaneous, if E^{0} cell is positive. 

Answer 1:
Consider reaction: <span>Ni^2+ (aq) + S^2- (aq) ----> + Ni (s) + S (s) 

The cell representation of above reaction is given by;
    </span>S^{2-}/S //  Ni^{2+}/Ni

Hence, E^{0}cell =  E^{0} Ni^{2+/Ni} -  E^{0} S/S^{2-}
we know that, {E^{0} Ni^{2+}/Ni  = -0.25 v
and {E^{0} S/ S^{2-}  = -0.47 v

Therefore, E^{0} cell = - 0.25 - (-0.47) = 0.22 v

Since,  E^{0} cell is positive, hence cell reaction is spontaneous
.....................................................................................................................

Answer 2: 
Consider reaction: <span>Pb^2+ (aq) +H2 (g) ----> Pb (s) +2H^+ (aq)
</span>
The cell representation of above reaction is given by;
    H_{2} /  H^{+} //  Pb^{2+} /Pb

Hence, E^{0}cell = E^{0} Pb/Pb^{2+} - E^{0} H_{2}/H^{+}
we know that, {E^{0} Pb^{2+}/Pb = -0.126 v
and {E^{0} H_{2}/ H^{+} = -0 v

Therefore, E^{0} cell = - 0.126 - 0 = -0.126 v

Since,  E^{0} cell is negative, hence cell reaction is non-spontaneous.

....................................................................................................................

Answer 3: 
Consider reaction: <span>2Ag^+ (aq) + Cr(s) ---> 2 Ag (s) +Cr^2+ (aq)
</span>
The cell representation of above reaction is given by;
    Cr/Cr^{2+} // Ag^{+}/Ag

Hence, E^{0}cell = E^{0} Ag^{+}/Ag - E^{0} Cr/Cr^{2+}
we know that, {E^{0} Ag^{+}/Ag = -0.22 v
and {E^{0} Cr/ Cr^{2+} = -0.913 v

Therefore, E^{0} cell = - 0.22 - (-0.913) = 0.693 v

Since,  E^{0} cell is positive, hence cell reaction is spontaneous
