Answer:

1.21x10^{-3} M

Explanation:

Henry's law relational the partial pressure and the concentration of a gas, which is its solubility. So, at the sea level, the total pressure of the air is 1 atm, and the partial pressure of O2 is 0.21 atm. So 21% of the air is O2.

Partial pressure = Henry's constant x molar concentration

0.21 = Hx1.38x10^{-3}

H = \frac{0.21}{1.38x10^{-3} }

H = 152.17 atm/M

For a pressure of 665 torr, knowing that 1 atm = 760 torr, so 665 tor = 0.875 atm, the ar concentration is the same, so 21% is O2, and the partial pressure of O2 must be:

P = 0.21*0.875 = 0.1837 atm

Then, the molar concentration [O2], will be:

P = Hx[O2]

0.1837 = 152.17x[O2]

[O2] = 0.1837/15.17

[O2] = 1.21x10^{-3} M

1. Analysis of an unknown substance formerly used in rocket fuel reveals a composition of 93.28% nitrogen and 6.72% hydrogen by
Nitella [24]

Answer:

The formula of the compound is:

N2H2

Explanation:

Data obtained from the question:

Nitrogen (N) = 93.28%

Hydrogen (H) = 6.72%

Next, we shall determine the empirical formula for the unknown compound. This is illustrated below:

N = 93.28%

H = 6.72%

Divide by their molar mass

N = 93.28 /14 = 6.663

H = 6.72 /1 = 6.7

Divide by the smallest

N = 6.663 / 6.663 = 1

H = 6.72 /6.663 = 1

Therefore, the empirical formula is NH.

Now, we can obtain the formula of the compound as follow:

The formula of a compound is simply a multiple of the empirical formula.

[NH]n = 30.04

[14 + 1]n = 30.04

15n = 30.04

Divide both side by 15

n = 30.04/15

n = 2

Therefore, the formula of the compound is:

[NH]n => [NH]2 => N2H2
