Answer: Partial pressure of N_{2} at a depth of 132 ft below sea level is 2964 mm Hg.

Explanation:

It is known that 1 atm = 760 mm Hg.

Also,   P_{N_{2}} = x_{N_{2}}P

where,    P_{N_{2}} = partial pressure of N_{2}

                 P = atmospheric pressure

            x_{N_{2}} = mole fraction of N_{2}

Putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

      P_{N_{2}} = x_{N_{2}}P

    593 mm Hg = x_{N_{2}} \times 760 mm Hg

       x_{N_{2}} = 0.780

Now, at a depth of 132 ft below the surface of the water where pressure is 5.0 atm. So, partial pressure of N_{2} is as follows.

         P_{N_{2}} = x_{N_{2}}P

                  = 0.78 \times 5 atm \times \frac{760 mm Hg}{1 atm}

                  = 2964 mm Hg

Therefore, we can conclude that partial pressure of N_{2} at a depth of 132 ft below sea level is 2964 mm Hg.

Which of the following solutions is acidic? [H3O+] = 1.0 x 10-10 M [H3O+] < 1.0 x 10-7 M [OH-] = 1.0 x 10-10 M [OH-] = 1.0 x
Burka [1]

Answer:

[OH-] = 1.0 x 10-10 M

Explanation:

The acidity of a solution can be determined directly from the concentration of the hydrogen ions and indirectly from the concentrations of the hydroxide ions.

Generally, for a neutral solution we have;

[H3O+] = [OH-] = 1.0 x 10-7 M

For an acidic solution;

[H3O+] > 1.0 x 10-7 M

[OH-] < 1.0 x 10-7 M

Comparing the options the correct option is;

[OH-] = 1.0 x 10-10 M

Percent Composition and Determining Empirical And Molecular Formulas
raketka [301]

Answer:

% comp. H = 2.8%, % comp. Cl = 97.2%

Explanation:

HCl mass = mass of H + mass of Cl

HCL mass = 1.00794 + 35.453 = 36.46094

% comp. of H = 1.007694 / 36.46094 x 100 = around 2.8% (2.76376308455)

% comp. of Cl = 35.453 / 36.46094 x 100 = around 97.2% (97.2355622208)
