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.

What is 2,100 in Scientific notation
Verizon [17]
It is 2.1 x 10^3 because your base number needs to be in between 1 and 10, and the number you are converting is non-decimal, so the exponent is positive. It is 10^3 because you are moving the decimal 3 places to the right
