If air is 80 percent nitrogen and 20 percent oxygen by volume what is density

Chemistry
1 answer:
Evgen [1.6K]4 years ago

1 mol of any gas or mix of gases at STP conditions will have a volume of 22.4 L. Since the problem doesn’t said what are the conditions I will asume that are STP condition and the volume of one mole of the mix will have a volume of 22.4 L.

You may know that density is
D=m/v

In one mole of air I will have 80% of Nitrogen (N2) and 20% oxygen (O2).

So the mass of one mole of air will be

14 x2x0.80+16x2x0.20 = 22.4 g + 6.4 g = 28.8 g

D= 28.8/22.4 = 1.28 g/L

Of course if the temperature is higher the density will be smaller because the volume of one mole will be bigger and viceversa if the temperature decrease. Also if the pressure is different than one atm the volume of a mol will change.

What is the mass percentage for copper ?
RideAnS [48]

Answer:

Explanation:

To find the mass percent composition of an element, divide the mass contribution of the element by the total molecular mass. This number must then be multiplied by 100% to be expressed as a percent.

What is the pH of a sample with [OH-] = 2.5 x 10-11 M?
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

The pH of the sample is 3,4.

Explanation:

We calculate the pOH from the formula pOH = -log (OH-). We know that for all aqueous solutions: pH + pOH = 14, and from there we clear pH:

pOH= -log (OH-)=10,60

pH + pOH = 14

pH + 10,60 = 14

pH=14 -10,60

<em>pH=3,4</em>

how would you write equation to show how buffers H2CO3 and NaHCO3 behave when (a) HCl is added and (b) NaOH is added.
Vlad1618 [11]
<span>H2CO3 <---> H+ + HCO3-
NaHCO3 <---> Na+ + HCO3-

When acid is added in the buffer, the excess H+ of that acid reacts with HCO3- to form H2CO3, and due to this NaHCO3 dissociates into HCO3- to attain the equilibrium. and hence there is no net effect of H+ due to pH remain almost constant. when a base is added to the buffer, the OH- ion of base react eith H+ ion present in buffer, then to attain equilibrium of H+ ion, the H2CO3 dissociates to produce H+ ion, but now there is the excess of HCO3- due to which Na+ ion react with them to attain equilibrium of HCO3-. hence there is again no net change in H+ ion due to which pH remain constant.....</span>
