In a mixture of helium and chlorine, occupying a volume of 14.6 l at 871.7 mmhg and 28.6oc, it is found that the partial pressur

e of chlorine is 355 mmhg. what is the total mass of the sample?

First, let's find the total moles.

PV=nRT
(871.7 mmHg)(1 atm/760 mmHg)(14.6 L) = n(0.0821 L-atm/mol-K)(28.6 +273)
Solving for n,
n = 0.676 moles

Assuming ideal gas behavior, the pressure fraction is also equal to mole fraction.

Mole fraction of Chlorine = 355/871.7 = 0.407
Mole fraction of Helium = 1 - 0.407 = 0.593

Knowing Chlorine to be 35.45g/mol and Helium to be 4 g/mol.
Mass of Chlorine = (0.407)(0.676)(35.45 g/mol) = 9.75 g
Mass of Helium = (0.593)(0.676)(4 g/mol) = 1.6 g
Total Mass = 9.75+1.6 = <em>11.35 g</em>

melamori03 [73]
The correct answer is c. Temperature is the average kinetic energy of a sample so if two samples have the same temperature they will also have the same average kinetic energy. I hope this helps. Let me know if anything is unclear.

Explanation:

The melting of the chocolate pieces one by one showed that it was caused by heat flowing through the foil bridge. The transfer of heat happened between the foil bridge and the chocolate pieces because they were touching each other.
