<u>Answer:</u> The partial pressure of carbon dioxide having solubility 0.886g/100mL is 4182.4 mmHg

<u>Explanation:</u>

Henry's law states that the amount of gas dissolved or molar solubility of gas is directly proportional to the partial pressure of the liquid.

The equation given by Henry's law is:

C_{CO_2}=K_H\times p_{CO_2}       ......(1)

where,

C_{CO_2 = solubility of carbon dioxide in water = 0.161 g/100 mL

K_H = Henry's constant = ?

p_{CO_2} = partial pressure of carbon dioxide = 760 mmHg

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

760mmHg=K_H\times 0.161g/100mL\\\\K_H=\frac{760mmHg}{0.161g/100mL}=4720.5g.mmHg/100mL

Now, calculating the pressure of carbon dioxide using equation 1, we get:

C_{CO_2 = solubility of carbon dioxide in water = 0.886 g/100 mL

K_H = Henry's constant = 4720.5 g.mmHg/100 mL

p_{CO_2} = partial pressure of carbon dioxide = ?

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

p_{CO_2}=4720.5g.mmHg/100mL\times 0.886g/100mL=4182.4mmHg

Hence, the partial pressure of carbon dioxide having solubility 0.886g/100mL is 4182.4 mmHg

Explain the ways that carbon dioxide is added to the atmosphere. How is it removed? Does most carbon enter the atmosphere as car
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

Carbon dioxide is added to the atmosphere by human activities. When hydrocarbon fuels (i.e. wood, coal, natural gas, gasoline, and oil) are burned, carbon dioxide is released. During combustion or burning, carbon from fossil fuels combine with oxygen in the air to form carbon dioxide and water vapor.Carbon moves from fossil fuels to the atmosphere when fuels are burned. When humans burn fossil fuels to power factories, power plants, cars and trucks, most of the carbon quickly enters the atmosphere as carbon dioxide gas. Each year, five and a half billion tons of carbon is released by burning fossil fuels.Carbon dioxide causes about 20 percent of Earth's greenhouse effect; water vapor accounts for about 50 percent; and clouds account for 25 percent.Likewise, when carbon dioxide concentrations rise, air temperatures go up, and more water vapor evaporates into the atmosphere—which then amplifies greenhouse heating

Dichlorine monoxide, Cl2O is sometimes used as a powerful chlorinating agent in research. It can be produced by passing chlorine
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

% yield =  82.5%

Explanation:

HgO + 2Cl₂ →  HgCl₂ +  Cl₂O

Our reactants are:

  • HgO and Cl₂

Our products are:

  • HgCl₂ +  Cl₂O

We do not have information about moles of reactants, but we do know the theoretical yield and the grams of product, in this case Cl₂O, we have produced.

Percent yield = (Yield produced / Theoretical yield) . 100

Theoretical yield is the mass of product which is produced by sufficent reactant. We replace data:

% yield = (0.71 g/0.86g) . 100 = 82.5%
