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!!!

MnO2+ 4HCL--->MnCl2+Cl2+2H2O:
Rainbow [258]
<span>Which reagent will be used up first? Thee answer is HCl.
We need to convert the amounts of the reactants into moles to see the limiting reactant.

48.2 g HCl ( 1 mol / 36.46 g) = 1.32 mol HCl

Since the ration is 1:4 then the limiting reactant is HCl. To react all of the MnO2 we need 3.44 mol HCl.

</span><span>How many grams of Cl2 will be produced? 
</span>We use the amount of limiting reactant since it will be used up first.

1.32 mol HCl (1 mol Cl2 / 4 mol HCl) ( 70.9 g Cl2 / 1 mol Cl2) =23.4 g CL2

What is the average atomic mass compared to atomic mass
muminat

Answer:

Answer in explanation

Explanation:

The atomic mass can be defined as the addition of the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom. When we talk of atomic mass, we are considering the mass of a particular isotope.

The average atomic mass or otherwise called the relative atomic mass is the atomic mass of the element itself. It has been calculated by taking into consideration the atomic masses of all the contributing isotopes existing in nature.

For example we have carbon 14 and carbon 12. While 14 is the atomic mass of that isotope, 12 is the relative atomic mass of the carbon atom. The abundance in nature of the different isotopes will dictate where the final atomic mass will lean
