What is the partial pressure of radon if the total pressure is 780 torr and the

Answer:

0.03atm

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Total pressure  = 780torr

Partial pressure of water vapor  = 1.0atm

Unknown:

Partial pressure of radon  = ?

Solution:

A sound knowledge of Dalton's law of partial pressure will help solve this problem.

The law states that "the total pressure of a mixture of gases is equal to the sum of the partial pressures of the constituent gases".

Mathematically;

           P_{t}   =   P_{1}  + P_{2}   +   P_{n}

Since the total pressure is 780torr, convert this to atm;

                       760torr = 1 atm

                       780torr  = \frac{780}{760} atm  = 1.03atm

     For this problem;

Total pressure  = Partial pressure of radon + Partial pressure of water vapor

            1.03 = Partial pressure of radon + 1.0

  Partial pressure of radon  = 1.03 - 1.00  = 0.03atm

How do properties of waves affect light and sound
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Both light and sound can be described in terms of wave forms with physical characteristics like amplitude, wavelength, and timbre. Wavelength and frequency are inversely related so that longer waves have lower frequencies, and shorter waves have higher frequencies.

A gas at 1.5 atm had pits ressure decreased to 0.50 atm producing a new volume of 750 ml what was its original volume
Vlada [557]

Answer:

The original volume of the gas is 0.001 mL

Explanation:

This easy excersise can be solved by the law for gases, about pressure and volume; the volume of a gas is inversely proportional to the pressure it exerts.

We can propose the rule by this formula:

P₁  / V₁ = P₂ / V₂

We replace data given: 1.50 atm / V₁ = 0.50 atm / 750 mL

As the rule says, that volume is inversely proportional, and the pressure was decreased, volume must be lower than 750 mL.

1.5atm / (0.5 atm / 750mL) = V₁

V₁ = 0.001 mL

These questions are from an experiment where we had a mixture of Ferrocene, acetylferrocene and diacetyl ferrocene and we separa
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The polarity of the 3 compounds would be in the order of

Ferrocene < Acetylferrocene < Diacetylferrocene

Your TLC data has to also support this observation . This can be checked by measuring the values of Rf ( Retention factor = distance travelled by solute/solvent ) .The Rf values also has to follow this particular order: -

Ferrocene > acetylferrocene > diacetylferrocene

2) Hexane happens to be a non-polar solvent. The polarity of hexane can be increased if some polar solvents for example, ethyl and methylene chloride etc are added

Therefore, in the increasing order of solvents polarity, we have

Hexane < 1:1 mixture of hexane: methylene chloride < 9:1 mixture of methylene chloride:

3) Chromatographic techniques all have a stationary phase in addition to a mobile phase. In the case of column chromatography, the silica gel will be the stationary phase and the solvent that will be poured will be the mobile phase.

4) The TLC and column chromatography both happen to have the same stationary phase which is the silica gel. Also, the same solvent mixture is used in both the techniques. This makes the result of the 2 to be almost the same. The difference seen between them is that, TLC works against the gravity while on the other hand column chromatography works in the direction of the gravity.

5) The key feature in the IR spectra of the acetylferrocene that will be absent in the spectra of ferrocene is the presence of carbonyl stretching frequency at close to 1700 per cm(cm-1). This peak is easily differentiated between both acetyl ferrocene and ferrocene.
