Answer:
I think its 1.2 cause I divided 15.5 with 12 and got 1.2 as an answer
Answer:
the mole fraction of Gas B is xB= 0.612 (61.2%)
Explanation:
Assuming ideal gas behaviour of A and B, then
pA*V=nA*R*T
pB*V=nB*R*T
where
V= volume = 10 L
T= temperature= 25°C= 298 K
pA and pB= partial pressures of A and B respectively = 5 atm and 7.89 atm
R= ideal gas constant = 0.082 atm*L/(mol*K)
therefore
nA= (pA*V)/(R*T) = 5 atm* 10 L /(0.082 atm*L/(mol*K) * 298 K) = 2.04 mole
nB= (pB*V)/(R*T) = 7.89 atm* 10 L /(0.082 atm*L/(mol*K) * 298 K) = 3.22 mole
therefore the total number of moles is
n = nA +nB= 2.04 mole + 3.22 mole = 5.26 mole
the mole fraction of Gas B is then
xB= nB/n= 3.22 mole/5.26 mole = 0.612
xB= 0.612
Note
another way to obtain it is through Dalton's law
P=pB*xB , P = pA+pB → xB = pB/(pA+pB) = 7.69 atm/( 5 atm + 7.89 atm) = 0.612
initial volume of the argon sample = 5.93L according to Boyle's law
What is Boyle's law ?
Boyle's law, also known as Mariotte's law, is a relationship describing how a gas will compress and expand at a constant temperature. The pressure (p) of a given quantity of gas changes inversely with its volume (v) at constant temperature, according to this empirical connection, which was established by the physicist Robert Boyle in 1662. In equation form, this means that pv = k, a constant.
According to Boyle's law
P1/V1 = P2/V2
P1 = initial pressure
P2 = final pressure
V1 =initial volume
V2= final volume
V1 = P1*V2/P2
V1 = 2.32*18.3/7.16 = 5.93L
initial volume of the argon sample = 5.93L according to Boyle's law

Technically there is only one phase unless you account for a solution where you have a pure liquid with something dissolved in it. Unless you count aqueous as a phase which is just dissolved. Since you are in high school the answer you are looking for is one. <span />
