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!!!

In which state of the following compounds does nitrogen have the most positive oxidation state? group of answer choices no2 nano
Amiraneli [1.4K]

The compound nitrogen have most positive oxidation state is NO₂. The correct option is b.

<h3>What is oxidation state?</h3>

The total number of electrons gained or lost by an atom in order to form a chemical bond with another atom.

The charge on an ion is equal to the sum of the oxidation states of all the atoms in the ion. A substance's more electronegative elements are given a negative oxidation state.

A positive oxidation state is assigned to the less electronegative element.

Thus, the correct option is b, NO₂.
