Gas y effuses half as fast as o2. what is the molar mass of gas y?

Chemistry

devlian [24]3 years ago
4 0
To solve this question, we will use Graham's law which states that:
(R1 / R2) ^ 2 = M2 / M1 where
R1 and R2 are the rates of effusion and M1 and M2 are the molar masses of the two gases.
From the periodic table, we can calculate the molar mass of O2 as follows:
molar mass of O2 = 2*16 = 32 grams

Therefore we have:
R1 / R2 = Ry / RO2 = 1/2
M1 is My we want to get
M2 is molar mass of O2 = 32 grams
Substitute in the above equation to get the molar mass of y as follows:
(1/2) ^2 = (32/My)
1/4 = 32/My
My = 32*4 = 128

Therefore, molar mass of gas y = 128 grams

What role does heat energy from the sun play influencing ocean currents
alexandr1967 [171]

The sun heats up the atmosphere at the equator. The dense water sinks under and forms deep water masses under the ocean current. Then it gets wind due to the air current and this brings currents at the surface if the ocean.

Which of the following is the correct formula to calculate percent by mass? [Mass of solution (g) + mass of solute (g)] × 100 [M
cricket20 [7]

Answer:

Percent by mass is calculated by tihis formula, Mass of solute (g) ÷ mass of solution (g)] × 100.

Explanation:

For example: if you have a solution 45% m/m (mass percentege), you have 45 g of solute in 100 g of solution.
