Air is composed of 79%N^2, 21% O^2. if the air pressure is 101.3 kPa, what are the pressures of N^2 and O^2

Chemistry

pychu [463]3 years ago

According to Dalton's law of partial pressures, a mixture of gases inflict pressure in a direct proportion to their volume/mass etc. Therefore, since 79 percent of the air is composed of nitrogen and 21 percent of Oxygen, we multiply 101.3 kPa by 0.79 = 80.027 kPa by Nitrogen, 101.3 kPa by 0.21 = 21.273 kPa by Oxygen.

How much carbon dioxide will be formed if 12.5 grams of oxygen reacts with 7.2 grams of propane (C3H8 )? Balanced equation: C3H8
solong [7]

Answer:

10.3125 grams of carbon dioxide will be formed.

Explanation:

The balanced reaction is:

C₃H₈ + 5 O₂→ 3 CO₂ + 4 H₂O

By reaction stoichiometry (that is, the relationship between the amount of reagents and products in a chemical reaction), the following amounts of moles participate in the reaction:

  • C₃H₈: 1 mole
  • O₂: 5 moles
  • CO₂: 3 moles
  • H₂O: 4 moles

Being the molar mass of the compounds:

  • C₃H₈: 44 g/mole
  • O₂: 32 g/mole
  • CO₂: 44 g/mole
  • H₂O: 18 g/mole

then by stoichiometry of the reaction, the following amounts of mass participate in the reaction:

  • C₃H₈: 1 mole* 44 g/mole = 44 g
  • O₂: 5 moles* 32 g/mole= 160 g
  • CO₂: 3 moles* 44 g/mole= 132 g
  • H₂O: 4 moles* 18 g/mole= 72 g

The limiting reagent is one that is consumed first in its entirety, determining the amount of product in the reaction. When the limiting reagent is finished, the chemical reaction will stop.

To determine the limiting reagent, it is possible to use a simple rule of three as follows: If by reaction stoichiometry 44 grams of propane react with 160 grams of oxygen, 7.2 grams of propane react with how much mass of oxygen?

mass of oxygen=\frac{7.2 grams of propane*160 grams of oxygen}{44 grams of propane}

mass of oxygen= 26.18 grams

But 26.18 moles of O₂ are not available, 12.5 grams are available. Since you have less mass than you need to react with 7.2 grams of propane, oxygen O₂ will be the limiting reagent.

Then you can apply the following rule of three: if by stoichiometry of the reaction 160 grams of oxygen form 132 grams of carbon dioxide, 12.5 grams of oxygen will form how much mass of carbon dioxide?

mass of carbon dioxide=\frac{12.5 grams of oxygen*132 grams of carbon dioxide}{160 grams of oxygen}

mass of carbon dioxide= 10.3125 grams

<u><em>10.3125 grams of carbon dioxide will be formed.</em></u>

Create a story and describe the motion (in meters) of an object that has traveled a distance but has no displacement. Need Help
vekshin1

Answer:

One complete revolution around a circular path.

Explanation:

Let us take the case of a car moving in a circular track of radius r metres.

In one revolution, the car covers the length(distance) equal to the perimeter of the circle.

In this case, distance traveled = 2\pir metres

But after one complete revolution, the car reaches the same position as it was at the beginning of the motion.

Hence, the initial and final points coincide or the car hasn't changed it's position w.r.t the initial point.

So in this case, the displacement is zero.

Hence, revolution of a car around a circular path is an example of an object traveling a distance but having no displacement.

The natural abundances of elements in the human body, expressed as percent by mass, are: oxygen (O),65 percent; carbon (C), 18 p
almond37 [142]

Answer:

The mass in grams of each element in the body of 62 Kg are

Oxygen               40300 g

Carbon                11160 g

Hydrogen            6200 g

Nitrogen              1860 g

Calcium                992 g

Phosphorus         744 g

Other elements   744 g

It is possible to check it adding all the components, the total is 62000 g.  

Explanation:

Firstly, we have a total mass of 62 Kg and the composition as a percentage of each component.

                            Percentage ( %)

Oxygen               65.0

Carbon               18.0

Hydrogen            10.0

Nitrogen              3.0

Calcium               1.6

Phosphorus         1.2

Other elements   1.2

Taking the definition of a percentage as part of hundred total, each percentage can be expressed as a decimal number. We should divide the percentage with 100 of total. For example: Oxygen 65%, it means 65/100 = 0.65. So, Oxygen is 0.65 in decimal numbers. We do the same for each component.

                           Percentage ( %)      Decimal number

Oxygen               65.0                         65/100 = 0.65

Carbon               18.0                           18/100 = 0.18

Hydrogen            10.0                         10/100 = 0.10

Nitrogen              3.0                           3/100 = 0.03

Calcium               1.6                           1.6/100 = 0.016

Phosphorus         1.2                           1.2/100 = 0.012

Other elements   1.2                           1.2/100 = 0.012

Finally. We can multiply decimal number of each component taking the total. 1 Kg is equivalent to 1000 g.

So, 62 Kg = 62 * 1000 g = 62000 g

After that we get the mass in grams of each element, by multiplying 62000 g and the decimal number of each component as follows:

                           Percentage ( %)      Decimal number      Mass in grams (g)        

Oxygen               65.0                         65/100 = 0.65         0.65*62000=40300

Carbon               18.0                           18/100 = 0.18         0.18*62000=  11160

Hydrogen            10.0                         10/100 = 0.10         0.10*62000=   6200

Nitrogen              3.0                           3/100 = 0.03          0.03*62000= 1860

Calcium               1.6                           1.6/100 = 0.016        0.016*62000= 992

Phosphorus         1.2                           1.2/100 = 0.012        0.012*62000=744

Other elements   1.2                           1.2/100 = 0.012        0.012*62000=744
