Answer: d) They both have the same number of atoms.

Explanation:

A mole is defined as the amount of substance that contains Avogardro number of the substance. Avogadro's number is given by $6.022\times 10^{23}$ .

$1mole=6.022\times 10^{23}particles$

According to avogadro's law, 1 mole of every substance weighs equal to its molecular mass and contains avogadro's number $6.023\times 10^{23}$

Thus 1 mole of magnesium and iron both contains $6.023\times 10^{23}$ particles.

Answer: The mass of nickel (II) oxide and aluminium that must be used is 18.8 g and 4.54 g respectively.

Explanation:

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$ .....(1)

For nickel:

Given mass of nickel = 14.8 g

Molar mass of nickel = 58.7 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Moles of nickel}=\frac{14.8g}{58.7g/mol}=0.252mol$

For the given chemical reaction:

$3NiO(s)+2Al(s)\rightarrow 3Ni(l)+Al_2O_3(s)$

For nickel (II) oxide:

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

3 moles of nickel are produced from 3 moles of nickel (II) oxide

So, 0.252 moles of nickel will be produced from $\frac{3}{3}\times 0.252=0.252mol$ of nickel (II) oxide

Now, calculating the mass of nickel (II) oxide by using equation 1:

Molar mass of nickel (II) oxide = 74.7 g/mol

Moles of nickel (II) oxide = 0.252 moles

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$0.252mol=\frac{\text{Mass of nickel (II) oxide}}{74.7g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of nickel (II) oxide}=(0.252mol\times 74.7g/mol)=18.8g$

For aluminium:

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

3 moles of nickel are produced from 2 moles of aluminium

So, 0.252 moles of nickel will be produced from $\frac{2}{3}\times 0.252=0.168mol$ of aluminium

Now, calculating the mass of aluminium by using equation 1:

Molar mass of aluminium = 27 g/mol

Moles of aluminium = 0.168 moles

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$0.168mol=\frac{\text{Mass of aluminium}}{27g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of aluminium}=(0.168mol\times 27g/mol)=4.54g$

Hence, the mass of nickel (II) oxide and aluminium that must be used is 18.8 g and 4.54 g respectively.

A 265-mL flask contains pure helium at a pressure of 751 torrs. A second flask with a volume of 465 mL contains pure argon at a

Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

Total Pressure = 745.6 torr

Partial Pressure of He = 272.8 torr

Partial Pressure of Ar = 472.8 torr

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Volume of the flask helium = 265 mL

Pressure in the helium flask = 751 torr = 751/760 atm

Volume of the flask argon = 465 mL

Pressure in the argon flask = 727 torr = 727/760 atm

The total pressure exerted by a gaseous mixture is equal to the sum of the partial pressures of each individual component in a gas mixture.

Step 2: Calculate total volume

Total volume = 265 mL + 465 mL = 730 mL = 0.730 L

Step 3: Boyle's Law:

P1V1=P2V2

⇒ with P1 = total pressure gas exerts in its own flask

⇒ with V1 = volume of flask with stopcock valve closed

⇒ with P2 = partial pressure of gas exerts on total volume of both flasks when stopcock valve is opened

⇒ with V2 = total volume of both flasks with stopcock valve opened

Helium using Boyle's Law equation from above:

P1V1=P2V2

⇒ with P1 = Pressure of helium = 751 /760 = 0.98816 atm

⇒ with V1 = volume of helium = 0.265 L

⇒ with P2 = The new partial pressure of helium

⇒ with V2 = total volume = 0.730 L

(0.98816 atm)(0.265L)=P2(0.730L)

P2=0.359 atm

Argon using Boyle's Law equation from above:

P1V1=P2V2

⇒ with P1 = Pressure of argon = 727/760 = 0.95658 atm

⇒ with V1 = volume of argon = 0.465 L

⇒ with P2 = The new partial pressure of argon

⇒ with V2 = total volume = 0.730 L

(0.95658 atm)(0.465L)=P2(0.730L)

P2=0.609 atm

Step 4: Convert pressure in atm to torr

Pressure helium = 0.359 atm = 272.8 torr

Pressure argon = 0.609 atm = 472.8 torr

Step 5: Calculate Total pressure

Ptotal = P(He)+P(Ar)

⇒ Pt = total pressure of the gas mixture

⇒ P(He) = partial pressure of Helium

⇒ P(Ar) = partial pressure of Argon

Pt = 272.8 torr + 472.8 torr

Pt = 745.6 torr

Total Pressure = 745.6 torr

Partial Pressure of He = 272.8 torr

Partial Pressure of Ar = 472.8 torr
