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

A child has a blood type of O. Can the mother of that child have a blood type of AB?
adell [148]

Explanation:

Yes they can. An AB parent can indeed sometimes have an O child. But it is by no means common. In fact it would be fair to say that it is exceedingly rare.

The one exception is in certain Asian groups. Some of these folks have a rare version of the ABO blood type gene called cis-AB. People with this gene version have an AB blood type but can easily have an O child.

Which protein synthesis process comes first?<br> O Translation<br> O Transcription
Mama L [17]

Answer:

Transcription

Explanation:

First comes Transcription, then comes Translation.

For example, DNA comes first, RNA comes second, and Protein comes third which makes proteins last. So, during the DNA process, Replication occurs. After that, DNA hops over to RNA using Transcription, and after that RNA hops over to Protein using Translation. So, we look left to right. Now, when I listed everything, Transcription came first and Translation came second. There is your answer.
