Answer:

Partial pressure O2 = 329 mmHg

Partial pressure N2 = 135 mmHg

Partial pressure CO2 = 407 mmHg

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Number of moles oxygen (O2) = 3.63 moles

Number of moles nitrogen (N2) = 1.49 moles

Number of moles carbon dioxide (CO2) = 4.49 moles

Total pressure = 871 mmHg

Step 2: Calculate total number of moles

Total moles = moles O2 + moles N2 + moles CO2

Total moles = 3.63 + 1.49 + 4.49

Total moles =  9.61 moles

Step 3: Calculate the mol ratio

Mol ratio number of moles compound / total moles

Mol ratio O2 = 3.63 moles / 9.61 moles

Mol ratio O2 = 0.378

Mol ratio N2 = 1.49 moles / 9.61 moles

Mol ratio N2 = 0.155

Mol ratio CO2 = 4.49 moles / 9.61 moles

Mol ratio CO2 = 0.467

Step 4: Calculate partial pressure

Partial pressure = mol ratio * total pressure

Partial pressure O2 = 0.378 * 871 mmHg

Partial pressure O2 = 329 mmHg

Partial pressure N2 = 0.155 * 871mmHg

Partial pressure N2 = 135 mmHg

Partial pressure CO2 = 0.467 * 871 mmHg

Partial pressure CO2 = 407 mmHg

Answer:

Partial pressure of CO₂ is 406.9 mmHg

Explanation:

To solve the question we should apply the concept of the mole fraction.

Mole fraction = Moles of gas / Total moles

We have the total moles of the mixture, if we have the moles for each gas inside. (3.63 moles of O₂, 1.49 moles of N₂ and 4.49 moles of CO₂)

Total moles = 3.63 mol O₂ + 1.49 mol N₂ + 4.49 mol CO₂ = 9.61 moles

To determiine the partial pressure of CO₂ we apply

Mole fraction of CO₂ → mol of CO₂ / Total moles = P. pressure CO₂ / Total P

Partial pressure of CO₂ = (mol of CO₂ / Total moles) . Total pressure

We replace values: (4.49 moles / 9.61 moles) . 871 mmHg = 406.9 mmHg

When aqueous solutions of Na2SO4 and Pb(NO3)2 are mixed, PbSO4 precipitates. Calculate the mass of PbSO4 formed when 1.25 L of 0
neonofarm [45]

Answer:

The mass of PbSO4 formed 15.163 gram

Explanation:

mole of Pb(NO₃)₂ = 1.25 x 0.05 = 0.0625

mole of Na₂SO₄ = 2 x 0.025 = 0.05

                                      Pb(NO₃)₂ + Na₂SO₄ → PbSO₄ + 2 NaNO₃

( Mole/Stoichiometry )    \frac{0.0625}{1}           \frac{0.05}{1}

                                     = 0.0625     = 0.05

From  (Mole/ Stoichiometry ) we can conclude that Na₂SO₄ is limiting reagent.

Mass of PbSO₄ precipitate = 0.05 x Molecular mass of PbSO₄

                                            = 0.05 x 303.26 g

                                            = 15.163 g
