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.

An aqueous solution is found to be 3.64% potassium nitrate by mass, how many grams of solution should I evaporate the water from
Sidana [21]

Answer:

513.74 g of solution

Explanation:

% Mass grams are defined as the <em>grams that are dissolved in salt</em> (in this case, it would be <em>potassium nitrate</em>) <em>dissolved every 100 g of the solution</em>. Having this information, you can calculate the amount of solution that has dissolved 18.7 g of potassium nitrate, which is what we want to obtain.

The relationship is:

3.64 g of potassium nitrate _____ 100 g solution

18.7 g of potassium nitrate _____ X = 513.74 g of solution

Calculation: 18.7g x 100g / 3.64g = 513.74 g of solution

So, <em>I need 513.74 g of solution to get 18.7g of potassium nitrate by evaporating it</em>.

What is the complete balanced equation for the reaction that occurs when lithium carbonate (Li2CO3) is heated?
Fed [463]
When heating lithium carbonate (Li2CO3), it will dissociate to Li2O and Co2. So the balanced chemical equation of this reaction is Li2CO3 = Li2O + CO2.
