Answer:

The partial pressures of O₂ and CO₂ are 0.489 atm and 0.511 atm respectively.

Explanation:

From the Questions we are given;

Volume = 10 Liter

Temperature = 298 K

Pressure = 1 atm

We need to calculate the partial pressures of O₂ and CO₂

Step 1 : Number of moles of gaseous mixture

Using the ideal gas equation;

PV =nRT, where P is the pressure, V is the volume, n is the number of moles, T is the temperature in K and R is the ideal gas constant (0.082 L∙atm/K∙mol)

Therefore;

n =\frac{PV}{RT}

n = \frac{(10)(1)}{(298)(0.082)}

Solving for n

n = 0.409 moles

Step 2: Moles of CO₂

Total number of moles of the mixture = 0.409 moles

Moles of Oxygen = 0.2 moles

Therefore;

Moles of CO₂ = 0.409 moles - 0.2 moles

                      = 0.209 moles

Step 3: Partial pressures of O₂ and CO₂

Partial pressure = \frac{No. of moles}{Total number of moles}(total pressure)

Therefore;

Partial pressure of Oxygen gas

= \frac{number of moles of Oxygen}{Total number of moles} (Total pressure)

= \frac{0.2}{0.409}(1)\\= 0.489 atm

Partial pressure of CO₂

= \frac{number of moles of CO₂}{Total number of moles} (Total pressure)

= \frac{0.209}{0.409}(1)\\= 0.511 atm

Thus, the partial pressures of O₂ and CO₂ are 0.489 atm and 0.511 atm respectively.

Most acid precipitation results from the combination of _____ with water in the atmosphere, forming strong acids that fall with
aleksley [76]

Answer:

             Most acid precipitation results from the combination of <u>Sulfur Oxides and Nitrogen Oxides</u> with water in the atmosphere, forming strong acids that fall with rain or snow.

Explanation:

                    Acid rain is said to be that rain which contains high concentration of H⁺ ions. The main source of acid rain is the elimination of NOₓ (Nitrogen Oxides) and SOₓ (Sulfur Oxides) from different means in industries and other combustion processes on earth.

Examples:

                                 SO₂  +  H₂O     →     H₂SO₄

                                 NO₂  +  OH°    →     HNO₃

From above examples it can be seen that the sulfur and nitrogen oxides when reacted with water forms strong acids. These acids come along with rain water and causes different problems to living organisms and non living objects like buildings.

The reaction below has an equilibrium constant kp=2.2×106 at 298 k. 2cof2(g)⇌co2(g)+cf4(g) calculate kp for the reaction below.
AnnZ [28]

<span>I believe the correct 2nd reaction is:</span>

cof2(g)⇌1/2 co2(g)+1/2 cf4(g)

where we can see that it is exactly one-half of the original

Therefore the new Kp is:

new Kp = (old Kp)^(1/2)

new Kp = (2.2 x 10^6)^(1/2)

<span>new Kp = 1,483.24 </span>
