Hello!

<span>We have the following statement data:
</span>
Data:
P_{Total} = 800 mmHg
P\% N_{2} = 60\%
P\% O_{2} = 40\%
P_{partial} = ? (mmHg)

<span>As the percentage is the mole fraction multiplied by 100:

</span>P =  X_{ O_{2} }*100

<span>The mole fraction will be the percentage divided by 100, thus:
</span><span>What is the partial pressure of oxygen in this mixture? 
</span>
X_{ O_{2} }  =  \frac{P}{100}
X_{ O_{2}} =  \frac{40}{100}
\boxed{X_{ O_{2}} = 0.4}


<span>To calculate the partial pressure of the oxygen gas, it is enough to use the formula that involves the pressures (total and partial) and the fraction in quantity of matter:
</span>
In relation to O_{2} :

\frac{P O_{2} }{P_{total}} = X_O_{2}
\frac{P O_{2} }{800} = 0.4
P_O_{2} = 0.4*800
\boxed{\boxed{P_O_{2} = 320\:mmHg}}\end{array}}\qquad\quad\checkmark

234+34.1 add and round to 2 significant figures
marin [14]
Like this? 234+34.1= 268.1 then round. If it is less than 5 then you round down if it is more then you round up. Because it is less the final number would be 268.1=268

Consider the following equilibrium reaction having gaseous reactants and products. 4HCl + O2 ⇌ 2H2O + Cl2 Which of the following
gulaghasi [49]
<h3><u>Answer</u>;</h3>

B.The rate of forward reaction increases.

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • Le Chatelier's principle states that changing a factor such as concentration, temperature, or pressure of a reaction at equilibrium will cause the reaction to shift in the direction that counteracts the effect of that change.
  • <em><u>Therefore, when reactants are added to a reaction at equilibrium shift when more reactants are added then the reaction shifts to the right to make more products.</u></em>
