Answer: a) 211 mm Hg
b) 0.629 grams
Explanation:
According to Dalton's law, the total pressure is the sum of individual pressures.
= total pressure = 750 mmHg
= 124 mm Hg
= 218 mm Hg
= 197 mm Hg
= ?
Thus the partial pressure of the helium gas is 211 mmHg.
b) According to the ideal gas equation:
P = Pressure of the gas = 211 mmHg = 0.28 atm (760mmHg=1atm)
V= Volume of the gas = 13.0 L
T= Temperature of the gas = 282 K
R= Gas constant = 0.0821 atmL/K mol
n= moles of gas= ?
Mass of helium=
Thus mass of helium gas present in a 13.0-L sample of this mixture at 282 K is 0.629 grams
