Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

      Pressure (P) = 760 torr = 1 atm

      Volume (V) = 720 cm^{3} = 0.720 L

     Temperature (T) = 25^{o}C = (25 + 273) K = 298 K

Using ideal gas equation, we will calculate the number of moles as follows.

                                PV = nRT

   Total atoms present (n) = \frac{PV}{RT}

                                          = 1 \times \frac{0.720 L}{0.0821 \times 298}

                                           = 0.0294 mol

Let us assume that there are x mol of Ar and y mol of Xe.

Hence, total number of moles will be as follows.

               x + y = 0.0294

Also,      40x + 131y = 2.966

             x = 0.0097 mol

              y = (0.0294 - 0.0097)

                = 0.0197 mol

Therefore, mole fraction will be calculated as follows.

Mol fraction of Xe = \frac{y}{(x+y)}

                               = \frac{0.0197}{0.0294}

                              = 0.67

Therefore, the mole fraction of Xe is 0.67.

1. A 5.05 g sample of quartz (SiO2) contains 2.36 g of silicon. What are the percentages of silicon
hammer [34]

Answer: B) 46.7% Si and 53.3% O

Explanation:

To calculate the mass percent of element in a given compound, we use the formula:

\text{Mass percent of element}=\frac{\text{Mass of element}}{\text{total mass}}\times 100\%

Mass of quartz  (SiO_2) = 5.05 g

Mass of silicon = 2.36 g

Mass of oxygen = Mass of quartz  (SiO_2) - mass of silicon = 5.05g - 2.36 g = 2.69 g

\text{Mass percent of silicon}=\frac{\text{Mass of silicon}}{\text{total mass of quartz}}\times 100=\frac{2.36}{5.05}\times 100=46.7\%

\text{Mass percent of oxygen}=\frac{\text{Mass of oxygen}}{\text{total mass of quartz}}\times 100=\frac{2.69}{5.05}\times 100=53.3\%

Thus the percentages of silicon and oxygen in quartz are B) 46.7% Si and 53.3% O
