The atmosphere is about 21% oxygen. At a pressure of 749 torr, what is the partial pressure of O2?

Chemistry

Kitty [74]3 years ago

Answer:

157.29 Torr

Explanation:

This question may be solved by the mole fraction.

Mole fraction → Moles of gas / Total moles = Partial pressure of gas / Total pressure

If the atmosphere is about 21% you assume that the mole fraction is 0.21 so:

0.21 = Partial pressure of gas / Total pressure

0.21 = Partial pressure of gas / 749 Torr

Partial pressure of the gas = 749 Torr . 0.21 →  157.29 Torr

What is the final temperature of a 27.2-gram wooden block that starts at 23.4°C and loses 759 joules of energy? The specific hea
sattari [20]

T = final temperature  of the block

T₀ = initial temperature of the block = 23.4 °C

Q = energy lost  from the wooden block = - 759 J

c = specific heat capacity of wood = 1.716 J/(g  °C)

m = mass of the wooden block = 27.2 g

Heat lost from the block is given as

Q = m c (T - T₀)

inserting the values

- 759 = (27.2) (1.716) (T - 23.4)

T = 7.1 °C

A solution has a volume of 500 ml and contains 0.570 mol of nacl what is the molarity
vichka [17]

Answer: 1.14 M

Explanation:

500 mL is equal to 0.5 L.

So, the molarity is (0.570)/(0.5) = 1.14 M

why is there a dip in ionization energies between the elements Be and B, between Mg and Al, and between Ca and Ga?
expeople1 [14]
Be and B: Be is 1s2 2s2 and B is 1s2 2s2 2p1
Be has full 2 orbitals and so does B but B only has 1 electron in p so it is really unstable and easy to react. So there is a dip in ionization energies. The other questions are similar to this so if you need, feel free to ask me
