Answer:

The correct answer is option A.

Explanation:

Total pressure of  mixture = p = 378 kPa

Partial pressure of the oxygen gas = p^o_{O_2}=212 kPa

Partial pressure of the hydrogen gas = p^o_{H_2}=101 kPa

Partial pressure of the nitrogen gas = p^o_{N_2}=?

As we know that total pressure is sum of partial pressures exerted by all the individual gases.

p=p^o_{O_2}+p^o_{H_2}+p^o_{N_2}

378 kpa=212 kPa+101 kPa+p^o_{N_2}

p^o_{N_2}=378 kPa - 212 kPa-101 kPa=65 kPa

65 kPa the partial pressure exerted by nitrogen.

As we know that

<span>P total = pO +pH +pN</span>

<span>so</span>

P = P1 + P2 + P3

378 kPa= 212 kPa + 101 kPa + P(H2)

P(H2) = 65 kPa

partial pressure is 65

so correct option is A 

hope it helps

Describe how greenhouse gases contribute to climate change
vladimir1956 [14]
Greenhouse gases arise naturally, and are part of the make-up of our atmosphere. Earths conditions are just right to allow life, including us, to flourish. Part of what makes Earth so amenable is the naturally-arising greenhouse effect, which keeps the planet at a friendly 15 °C (59 °F) on average. But in the last century or so, humans have been interfering with the energy balance of the planet, mainly through the burning of fossil fuels that give off additional carbon dioxide into the air. The level of carbon dioxide in Earth’s atmosphere has been rising consistently for decades and traps extra heat near the surface of the Earth, causing temperatures to rise.

Answer:

A group of parasites called myxozoans have traditionally been considered simple multicellular protists. However, because these organisms possess stinging cells, some scientists consider them to be animals in the phylum that is named for such cells, the <u>cnidarians</u>.

Explanation:

Cnidarians are animals with radial symmetry, that is, their bodies can be divided, by different planes, into equal parts. It includes hydras, jellyfish, anemones and marine corals. Its body is a kind of sac with an opening (the mouth) surrounded by a circle of tentacles. Some have a dominant jellyfish phase, others polyp, or both. They present defensive nematocysts with stinging action.
