Answer:

See explanation.

Explanation:

Hello

(a) In this case, one uses the following formulas, which allow to compute the mass fraction of each component:\% O_2=\frac{m_{O_2}}{m_{O_2}+m_{N_2}+m_{CO_2}}*100\%=\frac{4kg}{4kg+5kg+7kg}*100\%=25\%O_2\\\% N_2=\frac{m_{N_2}}{m_{O_2}+m_{N_2}+m_{CO_2}}*100\%=\frac{5kg}{4kg+5kg+7kg}*100\%=31.25\%N_2\\\% CO_2=\frac{m_{CO_2}}{m_{O_2}+m_{N_2}+m_{CO_2}}*100\%=\frac{7kg}{4kg+5kg+7kg}*100\%=43.75\%CO_2

(b) For the mole fractions, it is necessary to find all the components' moles by using their molar mass as shown below:

n_{O_2}=4kgO_2*\frac{1kmolO_2}{32kgO_2} =0.125kmolO_2\\n_{N_2}=5kgN_2*\frac{1kmolN_2}{28kgN_2} =0.179kmolN_2\\n_{CO_2}=7kgCO_2*\frac{1kmolCO_2}{44kgCO_2} =0.159kmolCO_2

Now, the mole fractions:

x_{O_2}=\frac{n_{O_2}}{n_{O_2}+n_{N_2}+n_{CO_2}}*100\%=\frac{0.125kmolO_2}{0.125kmolO_2+0.179kmolN_2+0.159kmolCO_2}*100\%=27\%O_2\\x_{N_2}=\frac{n_{N_2}}{n_{O_2}+n_{N_2}+n_{CO_2}}*100\%=\frac{0.179kmolN_2}{0.125kmolO_2+0.179kmolN_2+0.159kmolCO_2}*100\%=38.7\%N_2\\ x_{CO_2}=\frac{n_{CO_2}}{n_{O_2}+n_{N_2}+n_{CO_2}}*100\%=\frac{0.159kmolCO_2}{0.125kmolO_2+0.179kmolN_2+0.159kmolCO_2}*100\%=34.3\%CO_2

(c) Finally the average molar mass is computed considering the molar fractions and each component's molar mass:

M_{average}=0.27*32g/mol+0.387*28g/mol+0.343*44g/mol=34.57g/mol

And the gas constant:

Rg=0.082\frac{atm*L}{mol*K}*\frac{1mol}{34.57g}=0.00237\frac{atm*L}{g*K}

Best regards.

A solution is prepared by dissolving 106.3 g HCl(g) in enough water to make 175.0 L of solution. The ph of this solution is
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

moles HCl = 101.2 g /36.461 g/mol=2.78

[H+]= 2.78 mol/ 150 L =0.0185

pH = - log 0.0185=1.73

1.73 is the answer

Arrange the procedural steps, from start to finish, that are required to prepare indigo from nitrobenzaldehyde and acetone in ba
lions [1.4K]

Acetone has α-hydrogens (on both sides) and thus can be deprotonated to give a nucleophilic enolate anion. The aldehyde carbonyl is much more electrophilic than that of a ketone, and therefore reacts rapidly with the enolate.

<h3>What is nitrobenzaldehyde?</h3>
  • Synthesis. The synthesis of 3-nitrobenzaldehyde is achieved via nitration of benzaldehyde, which yields especially the meta-isomer. Creation allocation is about 19% for the ortho-, 72% for the meta- and 9% for the para isomers.
  • Acetone, propanone, or dimethyl ketone, is an organic combination with the formula (CH3)2CO. It is the easiest and smallest ketone. It is a colorless, highly volatile, and combustible liquid with a characteristic aromatic odor.
  • Nitration of benzene with conc nitric acid and conc sulphuric acid gives nitrobenzene. Chlorination with chlorine in the existence of anhydrous aluminum chloride gives meta nitro chlorobenzene.

Why is a mass movement of mud called a flow?
wariber [46]
In terms of a deeper scientific reason, I am not sure, but the basic reason is quite simple. "Mud" tends to look like a mix between a solid, dirt, and a liquid, water or some other liquid. Since it is, in fact, a cross between a solid and a liquid, it has properties of both. It has certain physical and visual properties that only a solid would have, such as texture and opaqueness, but it also has physical properties of a liquid. Since it leans more towards the liquid side than the solid side, we say mud "flows" rather than saying that it "rolls" or "bounces".

According to the combined gas law, the pressure exerted by a gas is:
sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer : The correct option is, (d) inversely proportional to volume and directly proportional to the kelvin temperature

Explanation :

Boyle's Law : It is defined as the pressure of the gas is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas at constant temperature and number of moles.

P\propto \frac{1}{V}

Charles' Law : It is defined as the volume of the gas is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas at constant pressure and number of moles.

V\propto T

Gay-Lussac's Law : It is defined as the pressure of the gas is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas at constant volume and number of moles.

P\propto T

Combined gas law : It is the combination of Boyle's law, Charles's law and Gay-Lussac's law.

The combined gas equation is,

\frac{PV}{T}=K

or,

\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2V_2}{T_2}

From the above information we conclude that the pressure exerted by a gas is inversely proportional to volume and directly proportional to the kelvin temperature.

Hence, the correct option is, (d)
