The total pressure of a mixture of oxygen and hydrogen

Chemistry

Mandarinka [93]3 years ago

Answer:

The composition of the original mixture in molepercent is 80% of H₂ and 20% of O₂.

Explanation:

We need to combine the ideal gas law (PV = nRT) and Dalton's law of partial pressure (Pt = Pa +Pb +Pc+...).

The total pressure of the mixture is Pt = P (H₂) + P (O₂)

The number of moles can be found by Pt = nt RT/V, in which nt = n (H₂) +n (O₂).

If Pt is 1 atm, nt is 1.0 mol.

Now we need to consider the chemical reaction below:

H₂ + 0.5O₂ → H₂O

This shows that for each mol of O₂ we need two mol of H₂.

We know that the remaining gas is pure hydrogen and that its pressure is 0.4atm. Since PV = nRT, by the end of the reaction, 0.4 mol of H₂ remains in the system.

This means that in the beginning we have n mol of H₂, and when x mol of H₂ reacts with 0,5x mol of O₂, 0.4 mol of H₂ reamains.

If we have 1 mol in the begining and 0.4 mol in the end, the total amount of gas that reacted (x + 0.5X) is equal to 0.6 mol

x + 0.5X = 0.6 mol ∴ x = 0.6 mol / 1.5 ∴ x = 0.4 mol

0.4 mol of H₂ reacted with 0.2 mol of O₂ and 0.4 mol of H₂ remained as excess.

Therefore, in the beginning we had 0.8 mol of H₂ and 0.2 mol of O₂. Thus the molepercent of the mixture is 80% of H₂ and 20% of O₂.

How is the number of electrons in an element determined?
elixir [45]

The number of protons, neutrons, and electrons in an atom can be determined from a set of simple rules. The number of protons in the nucleus of the atom is equal to the atomic number (Z). The number of electrons in a neutral atom is equal to the number of protons.

A 800N mountain climber scales a 160m cliff. How much work is done by the mountain climber?
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

Work done, W = 128 kJ

Explanation:

Given that,

Weight of a mountain climber, F = 800 N

It climbs to a cliff that is 160 m high.

We need to find the work done by the mountain climber. The work done by an object is given by the formula as follows :

W = Fd

Put the values of F and d.

W = 800 N × 160 m

W = 128000 J

or

W = 128 kJ

So, 128 kJ of work is done by the mountain climber.

Part A When a neuron responds to a particular neurotransmitter by opening gated ion channels, the neurotransmitter is serving as
Savatey [412]

Answer:

Receptor

Explanation:

   Neurotransmitters are defined as chemical messengers that carry, stimulate and balance signals between neurons, or nerve cells and other cells in the body.

  After release, the neurotransmitter crosses the synaptic gap and binds to the receptor site on the other neuron, stimulating or inhibiting the receptor neuron depending on what the neurotransmitter is. Neurotransmitters act as a key and the receptor site acts as a block. It takes the right key to open specific locks. If the neurotransmitter is able to function at the receptor site, it will cause changes in the recipient cell.

 The "first-class" neurotransmitter receptors are ligand-activated ion channels, also known as ionotropic receptors. They undergo a change in shape when the neurotransmitter turns on, causing the channel to open. This can be an excitatory or inhibitory effect, depending on the ions that can pass through the channels and their concentrations inside and outside the cell.  Ligand-activated ion channels are large protein complexes. They have certain regions that are binding sites for neurotransmitters, as well as membrane segments to make up the channel.
