Answer : There are 7.0 moles of oxygen in the formula.

Explanation :

The chemical formula of nickel tetracarbonyl is Ni(CO)₄.

We can see that there are 4 carbon atoms and 4 oxygen atoms which together form 4 carbonyl (CO) groups.

Therefore the mole ratio of C to O is 1 : 1.

Let us use this as a conversion factor to find moles of oxygen.

We have 7.0 moles of carbon in the formula.

The moles of O can be calculated as,

7 mol C \times \frac{1 mol O}{1 mol C} = 7.0 mol O

There are 7.0 moles of oxygen in the formula.

Liula [17]

Answer:

The total pressure is 0,804 atm

Explanation:

We use Dalton's law according to which the sum of the partial pressures is equal to the total pressure of a gas mixture. We convert the pressure in Pascals to atmosphere (it can also be done in reverse):

101300Pa ----1 atm

4500Pa----x= (4500Pa x 1atm)/101300Pa= 0,044 atm

P total= p1 + p2= 0,76 atm + 0,044 atm=0,804 atm
