A tank at is filled with of chlorine pentafluoride gas and of sulfur hexafluoride gas. You can assume both gases behave as ideal

gases under these conditions. Calculate the mole fraction and partial pressure of each gas, and the total pressure in the tank. Be sure your answers have the correct number of significant digits.

Answer:

- Mole fraction of Chlorine Pentafluoride

= 0.265

- Partial Pressure of Chlorine Pentafluoride

= 16.05 kPa

- Mole fraction of Sulfur Hexafluoride

= 0.735

- Partial Pressure of Sulfur Hexafluoride

= 44.53 kPa

Total Pressure exerted by the gases = 60.58 kPa

Explanation:

First of, we calculate the number of moles of each gas present.

Number of moles = (Mass)/(Molar Mass)

For ClF₅

Mass = 4.28 g

Molar Mass = 130.445 g/mol

number of moles of Chlorine Pentafluoride

= (4.28/130.445) = 0.0328 moles

For SF₆

Mass = 13.3 g

Molar Mass = 146.06 g/mol

number of moles of Sulfur Hexafluoride

= (13.3/146.06) = 0.0911 moles

Total number of moles present = 0.0328 + 0.0911 = 0.1239 moles.

Using the ideal gas equation

PV = nRT

P = total pressure in the tank = ?

V = volume of the tank = 5.00 L = 0.005 m³

R = molar gas constant = 8.314 J/mol.K

T = temperature of the tank = 20.9°C = 294.05 K

n = total number of moles present = 0.1239 moles

P × 0.005 = (0.1239 × 8.314 × 294.05)

P = 60,580.45 Pa = 60.58 kPa.

- Mole fraction of a particular component of interest = (number of moles of the component of interest) ÷ (total number of moles)

- Partial Pressure of a particular component of interest = (mole fraction of that component of interest) × (total pressure)

This is Dalton's law of Partial Pressure.

- Mole fraction of Chlorine Pentafluoride

= (0.0328/0.1239) = 0.265

- Partial Pressure of Chlorine Pentafluoride

= 0.265 × 60.58 = 16.05 kPa

- Mole fraction of Sulfur Hexafluoride

= (0.0911/0.1239) = 0.735

- Partial Pressure of Sulfur Hexafluoride

= 0.735 × 60.58 = 44.53 kPa

Total Pressure exerted by the gases = 16.04 + 44.53 = 60.58 kPa

Hope this Helps!!!

When zinc and HCl are reacted, the product is hydrogen gas. You can measure the reaction rate by measuring what?
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

measuring the consumption of the products and the rate of conversion of products to reagents

Explanation:

It must be taken into account that the reaction rate also depends on the presence of a catalyst, since these advance the rate of the reaction.

Listed below are possible solutes. In your possession is a beaker with 500 milliliters of water. You want to make an aqueous sol
slavikrds [6]

Answer: I & III

Explanation:  Solutes are the substances which are minimum in quantity and which is required to dissolve in the solvent (which is larger in quantity) in order to make a solution.

In the asked question, it is given that the water is the solvent and from the given solutes we have to pick which would make an aqueous solution with the highest concentration of solute possible.

Thus the most appropriate answers could be the Ammonia and hexanol which can make the highest possible concentration of solute as ammonia is the gas which is highly soluble in water and hexanol is an alcohol which has an affinity for water. Thus the correct option is I & III
