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!!!

HURRY !!!!!! How did kelper describe the planets Orbits ?

Kepler's Laws of Planetary Motion. While Copernicus rightly observed that the planets revolve around the Sun, it was Kepler who correctly defined their orbits.

Given the equation I = Q/t, solve for t.
larisa86 [58]

Answer: t=\frac{Q}{I}

Explanation:

I=\frac{Q}{t}

Multiply by t on both sides.

t*I=\frac{Q}{t}*t

tI=Q

Now divide by I to isolate t.

\frac{tI}{I}=\frac{Q}{I}

t=\frac{Q}{I}

A gas with a volume of 4.0L at a pressure of 205 kPa is allowed to expand to a volume of 12000 mL. What is the pressure in atmos
Leni [432]

Answer: The pressure in atmospheres is 0.674 in the container if the temperature remains constant.

Explanation:

Boyle's Law: This law states that pressure is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas at constant temperature and number of moles.

P\propto \frac{1}{V}     (At constant temperature and number of moles)

P_1V_1=P_2V_2  

where,

P_1 = initial pressure of gas  = 205 kPa

P_2 = final pressure of gas = ?

V_1 = initial volume of gas  = 4.0 L

V_2 = final volume of gas = 12000 ml = 12 L    (1L=1000ml)  

205\times 4.0=P_2\times 12  

P_2=68.3kPa=0.674atm        (1kPa=0.0098atm)

Therefore, the pressure in atmospheres is 0.674 in the container if the temperature remains constant.

What is the IUPAC name of the following compound?
pentagon [3]

Answer:

(d) 3,7-dimethyl-4-nonyne.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, considering the attached picture on which you can see that the main chain has nine carbon atoms, one tripe bond at the fourth carbon and two methyl radicals at the third and seventh carbons respectively, by following the IUPAC rules, the name would be: (d) 3,7-dimethyl-4-nonyne since the chain must start at the side closest to the first triple bond due to its priority and subsequently considering the present radicals.

Best regards.
