A 275-mL flask contains pure helium at a pressure of 752 torr. A second flask with a volume of 475 mL contains pure argon at a p

ressure of 722 torr. If the two flasks are connected through a stopcock and the stopcock is opened, what is the partial pressure of each gas and the total pressure?

Answer:

  • Partial pressure He = 276 torr
  • Partial pressure Ar = 457 torr
  • Total pressure = 733 torr

Explanation:

Assuming temperature remains constant, we can use Boyle's law to solve this problem: P₁V₁=P₂V₂.

Once the two flasks are connected and the stopock opened, the total volume is:

  • 275 + 475 = 750 mL

Now we use Boyle's law <em>twice</em>, to <u>calculate the new pressure of </u><em><u>each</u></em><u> gas</u>:

  • He ⇒ 752 torr * 275 mL = P₂He * 750 mL

P₂He = 276 torr

  • Ar ⇒ 722 torr * 475 mL = P₂Ar * 750 mL

P₂Ar = 457 torr

Finally we <u>calculate the total pressure</u>, adding the partial pressures:

  • Total pressure = P₂He + P₂Ar = 733 torr

SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

The strength of an acid or alkali depends on the degree of dissociation of the acid or alkali in water. The degree of dissociation measures the percentage of acid molecules that ionise when dissolved in water. He could use universal indicators or litmus paper for this.

FrozenT [24]
A colloid has the particles that have the ability to scatter light called the Tyndall effect named after the scientist named Tyndall. A suspension has large suspended particles that settle out at the bottom of the container. A solution has small particles that are evenly distributed throughout. Hence the answer is choice 2.

uranmaximum [27]
Robert Boyle, the 17th century British chemist, first noticed that the volume of a given amount of gas is inversely proportional to its pressure when kept at a constant temperature. When working with ideal gases we use PV = nRT, but remember n, R, and T are all constant. Therefore we have:

PV(before) = PV(after)

P(0.5650) = (715.1)(1.204)

slamgirl [31]

Explanation:

Atoms are at their most stable when their outermost energy level is either empty of electrons or filled with electrons. Sodium atoms have 11 electrons. Two of these are in the lowest energy level, eight are in the second energy level and then one electron is in the third energy level.
