A mixture of noble gases [helium (MW 4), argon (MW 40), krypton (MW 83.8), and xenon (MW 131.3)] is at a total pressure of 150 k

Pa, and a temperature of 500 K. The mixture has the following composition in mole fraction: 0.25 helium, 0.25 argon, 0.25 krypton. Determine: (a) The mass fraction of helium. (b) The average molecular weight of the mixture. (c) The total molar concentration. (d) The mass density.

Answer:

a) 1,6%

b) 64,775 g/mol

c) 3,6×10⁻² M

d) 2,3×10⁻³ g/mL

Explanation:

a) The mass fractium of helium is obtained converting the moles of the four gases to grams with molar weight and then caculating of the total of grams how many are of helium, thus:

  • Helium: 0,25 moles ×\frac{4 g}{1 mol} = 1 g of Helium
  • Argon: 0,25 moles ×\frac{40 g}{1 mol} = 10 g of Argon
  • Krypton: 0,25 moles ×\frac{83,8 g}{1 mol} = 20,95 g of krypton
  • Xenon: 0,25 moles ×\frac{131,3 g}{1 mol} = 32,825 g of Xenon

Total grams: 1g+10g+20,85g+30,825g= 62,675 g

Mass fraction of helium: \frac{1 gHelium}{62,675 g} × 100 = <em>1,6%</em>

<em />

<em>The mass fraction of Helium is 1,6%</em>

<em />

<em>b)</em><em>  </em>Because the mole fraction of all gases is the same the average molecular weight of the mixture is:

\frac{4+40+83,8+131,3}{4} = 64,775 g/mol

c) The molar concentration is possible to know ussing ideal gas law, thus:

\frac{P}{R.T} = M

Where:

P is pressure: 150 kPa

R is gas constant: 8,3145\frac{L.kPa}{K.mol}

T is temperature: 500 K

And M is molar concentration. Replacing:

M = 3,6×10⁻² M

d) The mass density is possible to know converting the moles of molarity to grams with average molecular weight and liters to mililiters, thus:

3,6×10⁻² \frac{mol}{L} × \frac{64,775 g}{mol} × \frac{1L}{1000 mL} =

2,3×10⁻³ g/mL

I hope it helps!

Which of the following is true for balancing equations?
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

D) There must be equal number of atoms of each elements on both sides of equation.

Explanation:

The balancing equation must have equal number of atoms of each elements on both sides of equation.

The balance equation shoes mass is conserved thus followed the law of conservation of mas.

Law of conservation of mass:

According to the law of conservation mass, mass can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical equation.

Explanation:

This law was given by french chemist  Antoine Lavoisier in 1789. According to this law mass of reactant and mass of product must be equal, because masses are not created or destroyed in a chemical reaction.

For example:

In given photosynthesis reaction:

6CO₂ + 6H₂O + energy → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂

there are six carbon atoms, eighteen oxygen atoms and twelve hydrogen atoms on the both side of equation so this reaction followed the law of conservation of mass.

In the figure below, two nonpolar molecules are interacting.Which interaction would most likely cause these molecules to repel e
Fed [463]
Two non-polar molecules are most likely to interact by
induced dipole-induced dipole interaction.

Non-polar substances do not have a permanently established charge distribution due to similar electron affinities of the atoms that are present. Moreover, due to the absence of a polar hydrogen, they cannot exhibit hydrogen bonding. They interact with one another by induced dipole-induced dipole interactions which arise from the molecules of the substances coming into close vicinity of one another.

Students were investigating properties of matter, but wanted to make sure that when they tested these properties they had proper
Mariana [72]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

An intrinsic property is a property that is internal, that is, it characterizes the substance under study. The possession of an intrinsic property depends on the nature of the substance. An intrinsic property does not depend on amount of substance but on the nature of the substance.

Examples of intrinsic properties include; Density. Solubility, Melting Point, Freezing Point, Boiling Point, Conductivity etc.

Intrinsic properties really represent the matter that is being studied. For instance, the boiling point of water will always be 100°c. No other liquid can boil exactly at that temperature. Hence, this intrinsic property can always be used to identify an unknown liquid as water.

The students were right, studying intrinsic properties accurately represent the matter that is being studied.
