Answer: the sum of the partial pressures of the individual gases.
Explanation:
According to Dalton's Law of partial pressure, the total pressure of a mixture of gases is equal to the sum of the partial pressures which each individual gas would exert if it were confined alone in the volume occupied by the mixture.
Hence, Ptotal = P1+ P2
where Ptotal is the total pressure
P1 and P2 are the partial pressures exerted seperately by the individual gases 1 and 2 that make up the mixture.
Answer:
Empirical formula is CaSO₄.
Explanation:
Given data:
Percentage of calcium =29.44%
Percentage of sulfur = 23.55%
Percentage of oxygen = 47.01%
Empirical formula = ?
Solution:
Number of gram atoms of Ca = 29.44 / 40 = 0.74
Number of gram atoms of S = 23.55 / 32 = 0.74
Number of gram atoms of O = 47.01 / 16 = 3
Atomic ratio:
Ca : S : O
0.74/0.74 : 0.74/0.74 : 3/0.74
1 : 1 : 4
Ca : S : O = 1 : 1 : 4
Empirical formula is CaSO₄.
Explanation:
is used for making ropes, used for climbing rocks and for making parachutes. Their usage shows that nylon fibres have high tensile strength
1. E. None of the Above
2. D. x + y
To find the molecular formula of the compound, we get the molar mass of empirical formula CH2o which is 30 g/mol. We divided the molecular mass of 90.087 g/mol by 30, we get 3. Hence, we multiply each element by 3, getting the molecular formula of C3H6O3.
