Answer:

21.16 MPa

Explanation:

Partial pressure of oxygen = 5.62 MPa

Total gas pressure = 26.78 MPa

But

Total pressure of the gas= sum of partial pressures of all the constituent gases in the system.

This implies that;

Total pressure of the system = partial pressure of nitrogen + partial pressure of oxygen

Hence partial pressure of nitrogen=

Total pressure of the system - partial pressure of oxygen

Therefore;

Partial pressure of nitrogen= 26.78 - 5.62

Partial pressure of nitrogen = 21.16 MPa

Answer:

The partial pressure of Nitrogen gas in the tank = 21.16 MPa.

Explanation:

According to Dalton's Law of partial pressure for gases, the total pressure of a mixture of gas under unchanging conditions is a sum of the partial pressures of each of the individual constituent gas.

The mixture consists of Nitrogen and oxygen gas. Hence, mathematically,

Total Pressure of the mixture = (Partial Pressure of Oxygen gas) + (Partial Pressure of Nitrogen gas)

Total Pressure of the mixture = 26.78 MPa.

Partial Pressure of Oxygen gas = 5.62 MPa.

Partial Pressure of Nitrogen gas = ?

26.78 = 5.62 + (Partial Pressure of Nitrogen gas)

Partial Pressure of Nitrogen gas = 26.78 - 5.62 = 21.16 MPa.

Hope this Helps!!!

Calculate the mole fraction of the total ions in an aqueous solution prepared by dissolving 0.400 moles of CaI2 in 850.0 g of wa
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

0.00840

Explanation:

The computation of the mole fraction is as follow:

As we know that

Molar mass = Number of grams ÷ number of moles

Or

number of moles = Number of grams ÷ molar mass

Given that

Number of moles of CaI2 = 0.400

And, Molar mass of water = 18.0 g/mol

Now  Number of moles of water is

= 850.0 g ÷ 18.0 g/mol

= 47.22 mol

And, Total number of moles is

= 0.400 + 47.22

= 47.62

So, Molar fraction of CaI2 is

= 0.400 ÷ 47.62

= 0.00840

Which of the following solutions is a good buffer system?A solution that is 0.10 M HCN and 0.10 M NaClA solution that is 0.10 M
patriot [66]

Answer:

A solution that is 0.10 M HCN and 0.10 M LiCN

Explanation:

  • A good buffer system contains a weak acid and its salt or a weak base and its salt.
  • In this case; A solution that is 0.10 M HCN and 0.10 M LiCN, would make a good buffer system.
  • HCN is a weak acid, while LiCN is a salt of the weak acid, that is, CN- conjugate of the acid.
