The given mass of cobalt chloride hydrate = 2.055 g
A sample of cobalt chloride hydrate was heated to drive off waters of hydration and the anhydrate was weighed.
The mass of anhydrous cobalt chloride = 1.121 g anhydrate.
The mass of water lost during heating = 2.055 g - 1.121 g = 0.934 g
Converting mass of water of hydration present in the hydrate to moles using molar mass:
Mass of water = 0.934 g
Molar mass of water = 18.0 g/mol
Moles of water =
The pressure of the carbon dioxide will be 0.09079 atm.
<h3>What is partial pressure?</h3>The pressure exerted by the individual gas is known as partial pressure.
The partial pressure is given as
In a mixture of carbon dioxide and oxygen, 40.0% of the gas pressure is exerted by oxygen.
If the total pressure is 115 mmHg.
The total pressure in atm will be
P = 115 mmHg
P = 0.15132 atm
We have
Then the pressure of the carbon dioxide will be 0.09079 atm.
