Whereas semidiurnal tides are observed at the equator at all times, most locations north or south of the equator experiencetwo unequal high tides and twounequal low tides per tidal day; this is called a mixed tide and the difference in height between successive high (or low) tides iscalled the diurnal inequality.

1-propanol (P1° = 20.9 Torr at 25 °C) and 2-propanol (P2° = 45.2 Torr at 25 °C) form ideal solutions in all proportions. Let x1
jekas [21]

Answer:

y1 = 0.3162

y2 = 0.6838

Explanation:

ok let us begin,

first we would be defining the parameters;

at 25°C;

1-propanol P1° = 20.90 Torr

2-propanol P2° = 45.2 Torr

From Raoults law:

P(1-propanol) = P⁰ × X(1-propanol)

P(1-propanol) = 20.9 torr × 0.45 = 9.405

P(1-propanol) = 9.405 torr

Also P(2-propanol) = P⁰ × X(2-propanol)

P(2-propanol) = 45.2 torr × 0.45

P(2-propanol) = 20.34 torr

but the total pressure = sum of individual pressures

total pressure = 9.405 + 20.34

total pressure = 29.745 torr

given that y1 and y2 represent the mole fraction of each in the vapor phase

y1 = P1 / total pressure

y1 = 9.405/29.745

y1 = 0.3162

Since y1 + y2 = 1

y2 = 1 - y1

∴ y2 = 1 -  0.3162

y2 = 0.6838

cheers, i hope this helps.

How does energy play a role in different rock types forming? I had this question another time in my test and it's asking the sam
Virty [35]

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

Yes, there are many energy forces that directly affect the formation of rocks and other substances. The Sun itself provides both energies in the form of heat/radiation and magnetic energy. Heat can get so intense when combined with pressure from being so far underground that it causes rocks to melt and become magma, which combines with other minerals and forms new types of rocks when they cool in the future. Magnetic energy helps push and pull the waves and wind on Earth which ultimately break down rocks into sand over the years.

An alkaline solution has more hydrogen ions then hydroxide ions.<br><br> a. True<br><br> b. False
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

When a base is dissolved in water, the balance between hydrogen ions and hydroxide ions shifts the opposite way. Because the base "soaks up" hydrogen ions, the result is a solution with more hydroxide ions than hydrogen ions. This kind of solution is alkaline.
