<u>Answer:</u> The partial pressure of oxygen gas is 2.76 bar

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation given by ideal gas which follows:

PV=nRT

where,

P = pressure of the gas = 5.57 bar

V = Volume of the gas = 2.19 L

T = Temperature of the gas = 298 K

R = Gas constant = 0.0831\text{ L bar }mol^{-1}K^{-1}

n = Total number of moles = ?

Putting values in above equation, we get:

5.57bar\times 2.19L=n\times 0.0831\text{ L. bar }mol^{-1}K^{-1}\times 298K\\\\n=\frac{5.57\times 2.19}{0.0831\times 298}=0.493mol

To calculate the mole fraction of carbon dioxide, we use the equation given by Raoult's law, which is:

p_{A}=p_T\times \chi_{A}         ........(1)

where,

p_A = partial pressure of carbon dioxide = 0.318 bar

p_T = total pressure = 5.57 bar

\chi_A = mole fraction of carbon dioxide = ?

Putting values in above equation, we get:

0.318bar=5.57bar\times \chi_{CO_2}\\\\\chi_{CO_2}=\frac{0.381}{5.57}=0.0571

  • Mole fraction of a substance is given by:

\chi_A=\frac{n_A}{n_A+n_B}

We are given:

Moles of nitrogen gas = 0.221 moles

Mole fraction of nitrogen gas, \chi_{N_2}=\frac{0.221}{0.493}=0.448

Calculating the partial pressure of oxygen gas by using equation 1, we get:

Mole fraction of oxygen gas = (1 - 0.0571 - 0.448) = 0.4949

Total pressure of the system = 5.57 bar

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

p_{O_2}=5.57bar\times 0.4949\\\\p_{O_2}=2.76bar

Hence, the partial pressure of oxygen gas is 2.76 bar

A voltaic cell consists of a nickel electrode in a solution containing Ni2+ ions, and a copper electrode in a solution containin
Marysya12 [62]
First, we write the half equations for the reduction of the chemical species present:

Cu⁺² + 2e → Cu; E° = 0.34 V
Ni⁺² + 2e → Ni; E° = - 0.23 V

In order to determine the potential of the cell, we find the difference between the two values. For this:

E(cell) = 0.34 - (-0.23)
E(cell) = 0.57 V

The second option is correct. (The difference in values is due to different values in literature, and it is negligible)

The chemical equation below shows the reaction of glucose and oxygen.
goldfiish [28.3K]
• Aerobic respiration, photosynthesis


It is aerobic because it requires oxygen to be carried out. Anaerobic on the other hand does not require oxygen.

It’s two products would be the reactants for photosynthesis because in photosynthesis the reverse reaction takes place as glucose is produced along with water from carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O) in the presence of chlorophyll and sunlight.
