Answer:

Simply put, you can go from moles to grams and vice versa by using the mass of 1 mole of that substance, i.e its molar mass. For example, the molar mass of carbon is 12.011 g/mol. This means that 1 mole of carbon, or 6.022⋅1023 atoms of carbon, weigh 12.011 g.

Part A: Three gases (8.00 g of methane, CH_4, 18.0g of ethane, C_2H_6, and an unknown amount of propane, C_3H_8) were added to t

myrzilka [38]

Explanation:

Part A:

Total pressure of the mixture = P = 5.40 atm

Volume of the container = V = 10.0 L

Temperature of the mixture = T = 23°C = 296.15 K

Total number of moles of gases = n

PV = nRT (ideal gas equation)

$n=\frac{PV}{RT}=\frac{5.40 atm\times 10.0 L}{0.0821 atm L/mol K\times 296.15 K}=2.22 mol$

Moles of methane gas = $n_1=\frac{8.00 g}{16 g/mol}=0.5 mol$

Moles of ethane gas = $n_2=\frac{18.0 g}{30 g/mol}=0.6 mol$

Moles of propane gas = $n_3$

$n=n_1+n_2+n_3$

$2.22=0.5 mol +0.6 mol+ n_3$

$n_3= 2.22 mol - 0.5 mol -0.6 mol= 1.12 mol$

Mole fraction of methane = $\chi_1=\frac{n_1}{n_1+n_2+n_3}=\frac{n_1}{n}$

$\chi_1=\frac{0.5 mol}{2.22 mol}=0.2252$

Similarly, mole fraction of ethane and propane :

$\chi_2=\frac{n_2}{n}=\frac{0.6 mol}{2.22 mol}=0.2703$

$\chi_3=\frac{n_3}{n}=\frac{1.12 mol}{2.22 mol}=0.5045$

Partial pressure of each gas can be calculated by the help of Dalton's' law:

$p_i=P\times \chi_1$

Partial pressure of methane gas:

$p_1=P\times \chi_1=5.40 atm\times 0.2252=1.22 atm$

Partial pressure of ethane gas:

$p_2=P\times \chi_2=5.40 atm\times 0.2703=1.46 atm$

Partial pressure of propane gas:

$p_3=P\times \chi_3=5.40 atm\times 0.5045=2.72 atm$

Part B:

Suppose in 100 grams mixture of nitrogen and oxygen gas.

Percentage of nitrogen = 37.8 %

Mass of nitrogen in 100 g mixture = 37.8 g

Mass of oxygen gas = 100 g - 37.8 g = 62.2 g

Moles of nitrogen gas = $n_1=\frac{37.8 g g}{28g/mol}=1.35 mol$

Moles of oxygen gas = $n_2=\frac{62.2 g}{32 g/mol}=1.94 mol$

Mole fraction of nitrogen= $\chi_1=\frac{n_1}{n_1+n_2}$

$\chi_1=\frac{1.35 mol}{1.35 mol+1.94 mol}=0.4103$

Similarly, mole fraction of oxygen

$\chi_2=\frac{n_2}{n_1+n_2}=\frac{1.94 mol}{1.35 mol+1.94 mol}=0.5897$

Partial pressure of each gas can be calculated by the help of Dalton's' law:

$p_i=P\times \chi_1$

The total pressure is 405 mmHg.

P = 405 mmHg

Partial pressure of nitrogen gas:

$p_1=P\times \chi_1=405 mmHg\times 0.4103 =166.17 mmHg$

Partial pressure of oxygen gas:

$p_2=P\times \chi_2=405 mmHg\times 0.5897=238.83 mmHg$

If 1mole ------------- is ---------------- 6.02*10²³
than 0.25mole ----- is ---------------- x

x = [0.25mole*6.02*10²³]/1mole = 1,505*10²³

What most likely led to a change in the widely accepted theory of evolution? new experiments involving genes and evolution exper

ss7ja [257]

Incomplete question. Full question reads;

Darwin developed the theory of evolution to explain why there are so many different kinds of living things. He could easily observe that offspring of any animals were slightly different from their parents and that this could allow for big changes over thousands of years. He did not know that genes caused the differences. Genes are now very important in the modern theory of evolution.

What most likely led to a change in the widely accepted theory of evolution?

Answer:

new experiments involving genes and evolution

Explanation:

Indeed, the original theory of evolution has experienced several changes in its acceptance because of its imperfect and wrong assumptions not based on generally acceptable scientific facts,

Hence, new experiments involving genes and evolution has led to a change (disagreements and few agreements) in the widely accepted theory of evolution.
