<span>The mole fraction of oxygen gas is 2/6 =1/3, because there are 6 total moles of gas in the container. The partial pressure can be found by multiplying this mole fraction by the total pressure. So the answer is B. 262 kPA because 1/3(786)=262.</span>

Answer:

B. 262 kPa

Explanation:

First we must find the total of moles in the container:

3 moles of helium + 2 moles of oxygen + 1 mole s of carbon = 6 moles.

of the total of moles, 2 are oxygen, so the fraction of oxygen in the container is 2/6 = 1/3

Thus, the partial pressure of the oxygen gas must be a third of the total pressure in the container:

Partial pressure of the oxygen gas = \frac{786kPa}{3} = 262 kPa\\

The answer is B. 262 kPa

What is the difference between electronegativity and ionization energy
Katena32 [7]

Answer:

These properties are basically the inverse of each other.

Explanation:

  • Electronegativity is the tendency of an atom to attract an electron and make it a part of its orbital.

        Ionization enthalpy, is the energy required to remove an electron from                        an atom.

  • More electronegative atoms have high ionization enthalpies If the energy required to remove an electron is less, i.e. the atom has more tendency to give electron, it would thus have less tendency to take electron.
  • Values and tendency of electronegativity in the periodic table: In general, the electronegativity of a non‐metal is  larger than that of metal. For the elements of one period the electronegativities increase from  left to right across the periodic table. For the elements of one main group the electronegativities  decrease from top to bottom across the periodic table. To the subgroup elements, there’s no  regular rule.
  • Values and tendency of ionization potential in the periodic table: The first ionization energy is the energy which is  required when a gaseous atom/ion loses an electron to form a gaseous +1 valence ion. The  energy which is required for a gaseous +1 valence ion to loose an electron to form a gaseous +2  valence ion, is called the second ionization energy of an element.  In general, the second ionization energy is higher than the first ionization energy of an element. The first ionization energies of the elements of one period increase from the left to the right  across the periodic table. According to the elements of main group, the first ionization energies  generally decreases from top to bottom across the periodic table.

26 Which process occurs in an operating voltaic cell?(1) Electrical energy is converted to chemical energy.
tia_tia [17]

Answer is: (2) Chemical energy is converted to electrical energy.

An electrochemical cell (voltaic or galvanic cell) is generating electrical energy from chemical reactions.

In galvanic cell, specie (for example zinc and zinc cations) from one half-cell, lose electrons (oxidation) and species from the other half-cell (for example copper and copper cations) gain electrons (reduction).

Oxidation on the zinc anode: Zn(s) → Zn²⁺(aq) + 2e⁻.

Reduction on the copper cathode: Cu²⁺(aq) + 2e⁻ → Cu(s).
