Alveolar air (a mixture of nitrogen, oxygen, and carbon dioxide) has a total pressure of 0.998 atm. If the partial pressure of o

xygen gas is 0.198 atm and the partial pressure of nitrogen gas is 0.770 atm, what is the partial pressure of carbon dioxide in millimeters of mercury?

Answer:

22.8 mmHg

Explanation:

According to Dalton's law of partial pressures, the total pressure of a mixture of gases is obtained as the sum of the partial pressures if all the individual gases present in the mixture.

Since the total pressure of gases in the mixture is 0.998 atm, the partial pressure of carbon dioxide is;

PCO2 = [Ptotal - (PO2+ PN2)]

Hence;

PCO2 = [0.998 - (0.198 + 0.770)]

PCO2 = 0.03

Since

1 atm = 760 mmHg

0.03 atm = 0.03 × 760 /1

=22.8 mmHg

Hybridization of NH3​
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

Sp3 hybridization

Explanation:

The NH3 molecule, which consists of one lone pairs and three bond pair of electron on its valance shell due to lone pair bond pair repulsion makes bond angle of 107.5°resulting distorted tetrahedral geometry.

Hybridization =no. of bond pair +lone pair=3+1=4=sp3 hybridization

For the reaction below, which change would cause the equilibrium to shift to the right? EXPLAIN.
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

C. Decrease the concentration of hydrogen gas

Explanation:

<u><em>Decreasing the concentration of hydrogen gas</em></u><em> would cause the equilibrium to shift to the right.</em>

According to Le Chatelier's principle, when a reaction is in equilibrium and one of the constraints affecting reactions is varied, the equilibrium will shift so as to annul the effects of the change.

Decreasing the concentration of dihydrogen sulfide will cause the equilibrium to shift to the left because as reactants are removed, more of the reactants would be formed.

Increasing the pressure of the system will also cause the equilibrium to shift to the left because the total number of moles of reactants is less than that of products. Hence, more of reactants would be formed with increased pressure.

Increasing the concentration of carbon disulfide will cause the equilibrium to shift to the left because as more of the products are added into the reaction, more of the reactants will begin to form.

<u>The only reason for the equilibrium to shift to the right causing more of the products to be formed is decreasing the concentration of hydrogen gas which happens to be one of the products. As more of the products are removed from the reaction, the equilibrium will shift to ensure that more products are formed.</u>

The correct option is C.
