Answer: the sum of the partial pressures of the individual gases.
Explanation:
According to Dalton's Law of partial pressure, the total pressure of a mixture of gases is equal to the sum of the partial pressures which each individual gas would exert if it were confined alone in the volume occupied by the mixture.
Hence, Ptotal = P1+ P2
where Ptotal is the total pressure
P1 and P2 are the partial pressures exerted seperately by the individual gases 1 and 2 that make up the mixture.
Answer:
(a) Between methanol (CH₃OH) and glycerol (C₃H₅(OH)₃), the substance with the higher surface tension is glycerol (C₃H₅(OH)₃)
(b) Between tetrabromomethane (CBr₄) and chloroform (CHCl₃), the substance with the higher surface tension is chloroform (CHCl₃)
Explanation:
The surface tension of these substances at 20 °C given in mN/m, is as follows:
The surface tension of Methanol is 22.70
The surface tension of Tetrabromomethane is 26.95
The surface tension of Glycerol is 64.00
The surface tension of Chloroform is 27.50
(a) Between methanol (CH₃OH) and glycerol (C₃H₅(OH)₃), the substance with the higher surface tension is glycerol (C₃H₅(OH)₃)
(b) Between tetrabromomethane (CBr₄) and chloroform (CHCl₃), the substance with the higher surface tension is chloroform (CHCl₃)
Sodium is a metal and bromine is a nonmetal so they form an ionic compound
nonmetals and nonmetals form covalent compounds
