Answer:

Mole fraction of nitrogen =   0.52

Explanation:

Given data:

Temperature =  31.2 °C

Pressure = 870.2 mmHg

Volume = 15.1 L

Mass of mixture = 24.1 g

Mole fraction of nitrogen = ?

Solution:

Pressure conversion:

870.2 /760 = 1.12 atm

Temperature conversion:

31.2 + 273 = 304.2 K

Total number of moles:

PV = nRT

n = PV/RT

n =  1.12 atm × 15.1 L / 0.0821 L.atm. mol⁻¹.K⁻¹ × 304.2 K

n = 16.9 L.atm.  /25 L.atm. mol⁻¹

n = 0.676 mol

Number of moles of nitrogen are = x

Then the number of moles of CO₂ = 0.676 - x

Mass of nitrogen = x mol . 28 g/mol and for CO₂ Mass = 44 g/mol ( 0.676 - x)

24.1  = 28x + ( 29.7 -44x)

24.1 - 29.7  =  28x  - 44x

-5.6 = -16 x

x = 0.35

Mole fraction of nitrogen:

Mole fraction of nitrogen = moles of nitrogen / total number of moles

Mole fraction of nitrogen =   0.35  mol / 0.676 mol

Mole fraction of nitrogen =   0.52

How many electrons would be found in the Ion who’s symbol is I-
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

54

Explanation:

Given symbol of the element:

                   I⁻

Number of electrons found in an ion with the symbol:

  This is a iodine ion:

         For an atom of iodine:

                   Electrons  = 53

                   Protons  = 53

                   Neutrons  = 74

An ion of iodine is one that has lost or gained electrons.

For this one, we have a negatively charged ion which implies that the number of electrons is 1 more than that of the protons.

  So, number of electrons  = 53 + 1  = 54

The number of electrons in this ion is 54

List 3 categories of properties used to classify solids.
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer : Broadly solids are divided into three categories;

i) Crystalline solids have a regular definite structure, in which the particles pack in a repeating pattern from one edge of the solid to the other.

ii) Amorphous solids have a random structure, with little unorganized pattern long-range order.

iii) Polycrystalline solids are those where an aggregate which consists of a large number of small crystals or grains in which the structure is regular, but the crystals or grains are found to be arranged in a random fashion.

Also solids can be divided into 3 more categories according to their bonds;

i) Covalent solids, like diamond, which forms crystals that can be viewed as a single giant molecule made up of an almost endless number of covalent bonds.

ii) Ionic solids are basically salts, such as NaCl, in which the molecules are held together by the strong force of attraction between ions of opposite charge.

iii) Metallic solids are found in metals which have the force of attraction between atoms of metals, such as copper and aluminum, or alloys, such as brass and bronze, are metallic bonds.
