Calculate the partial pressure of each gas and the total pressure if the temperature of the gas is 21 ∘C∘C. Express the pressure
Volgvan

The question is incomplete, complete question is ;

A deep-sea diver uses a gas cylinder with a volume of 10.0 L and a content of 51.8 g of O_2 and 33.1 g of He. Calculate the partial pressure of each gas and the total pressure if the temperature of the gas is 21°C.Express the pressures in atmospheres to three significant digits separated by commas.

Answer:

Partial pressure of the oxygen gas is 3.91 atm.

Partial pressure of the helium gas is 20.0 atm

Total pressure of the gases is 24.0 atm

Explanation:

Moles of oxygen gas = n_1=\frac{51.8}{32 g/mol}=1.619 mol

Moles of helium gas = n_2=\frac{33.1 g}{4 g/mol}=8.275 mol

Total moles of gas = n_1+n_2=(1.619 +8.275 ) mole=9.894 mol

Volume of the cylinder = V = 10.0 L

Total pressure in the cylinder = P = ?

Temperature of the gas in cylinder = T = 21°C = 21 + 273 K = 294 K

PV = nRT ( ideal gas equation )

P=\frac{nRT}{V}

=\frac{9.894 mol\times 0.0821 atm L/mol K\times 294 K}{10.0 L}

P = 23.88 atm ≈ 23.9

Partial pressure of the individual gas will be determined by the help of Dalton's law:

partial pressure = Total pressure × mole fraction of gas

Partial pressure of the oxygen gas

p_{1}=P\times \chi_{1}=P\times \frac{n_1}{n_1+n_2}

p_1=23.88 atm\times \frac{1.619 mol}{9.894 mol}=3.91 atm

Partial pressure of the helium gas

p_{2}=P\times \chi_{2}=P\times \frac{n_2}{n_1+n_2}

p_2=23.88 atm\times \frac{8.275 mol}{9.894 mol}=19.97 atm\approx 20.0 atm

Question: why do astronauts wear organge suits vs white suits<br><br> Full answer please..
Alexeev081 [22]
Astronauts are found wearing orange-colored Advanced Crew Escape Suit (ACES) while the space shuttle is ascending or entering into space. This peculiar shade of orange known as “International Orange” was chosen for safety as it is highly visible against any kind of landscape, especially in the sea.

The density of gold is about 19.3 g/ml. what is the mass of a 50 mL gold nugget?
aev [14]
If the question does not require unit conversion (mL to L) then: 

density = mass / volume
density . volume = mass
19.3g/mL . 50 mL =mass
965 g= mass
