The partial pressure of the component of a gas mixture is equal to the product of the total pressure and its molar ratio in the mixture. Assuming that the gas behaves as real, the partial pressure of nitrogen is 0.78 of 1 atm which is equal to 0.78 atm.

The partial pressure of a gas in a mixture follow the equation: $P_i = x_i\cdot P_T$

In case of air, at a total pressure of 1 atm, the partial fraction of nitrogen is 0,78, because $x_i = \frac{78}{100} = 0,78$

The partial pressure of nitrogen will be:

$P_{N_2} = 0,78\cdot 1\ atm = \bf 0,78\ atm$

- (1/3) d[O2]/dt = 1/2 d[N2]/dt

- d[O2]/dt = 3/2 d[N2]/dt

- d[O2]/dt = 3/2 × 0.27

- d[O2]/dt = 0.405 mol L^(-1) s^(-1)

Zinc metal is added to a flask containing aqueous hydrochloric acid. The flask contains 0.400 mole of HCl. How much hydrogen gas

dusya [7]

Answer:

0.4 g of hydrogen gas would be produced.

1. 0.48 mole of HCl is needed to react completely with 15.5 g of zinc.

2. HCl is the limiting reactant.

3. 2.61 g of zinc is in excess

Explanation:

From the balanced equation of reaction:

$Zn(s)+ 2HCl(aq) --> H_2(g) + ZnCl_2(aq)$

1 mole of Zn requires 2 moles of HCl to produce 1 mole of hydrogen gas.

15.5 g of zinc = 15.5/65.3 = 0.24 moles of zinc.

0.24 moles Zn is supposed to require 0.24 x 2 moles HCl which is equivalent to 0.48 moles HCl.

But only 0.400 mole of HCl is present. Hence, HCl is the limiting reagent. For complete reaction with 15.5 g of Zinc, 0.48 mole HCl would be needed.

0.400 mole of HCl will require 0.2 mole of Zn for complete reaction. This thus means that 0.24 - 02 = 0.04 mole of Zn is in excess.

0.04 mole Zn = 0.04 x 65.3 = 2.61 g excess Zn.

Now, since HCl is the limiting reagent;

2 moles of HCl is required to produce 1 mole of H2 according to the equation.

0.400 mole HCl will therefore yield 0.400 x 1/2 = 0.2 mole H2

0.2 mole H2 = 2 x 0.2 = 0.4 g H2

Hence, 0.4 g of hydrogen gas would be produced.

Harvey kept a balloon with a volume of 348 milliliters at 25.0˚C inside a freezer for a night. When he took it out, its new volu

ad-work [718]

Initial volume of the balloon = $V_{1}$ = 348 mL

Initial temperature of the balloon $T_{1}$ = $25.0^{0}C + 273 = 298 K$

Final volume of the balloon $V_{2}$ = 322 mL

Final temperature of the balloon = $T_{2} = ?$

According to Charles law, volume of an ideal gas is directly proportional to the temperature at constant pressure.

$\frac{V_{1} }{T_{1} } =\frac{V_{2} }{T_{2} }$

On plugging in the values,

$\frac{348mL}{298 K} =\frac{322 mL}{T_{2} }$

$T_{2} =276 K$

Therefore, the temperature of the freezer is 276 K

Vladimir [108]

Answer: (a) Neon, Nitrogen; (b) Neon, Nitrogen; (c) Neon is lower than Nitrogen; (d) It doesn't affect;

Explanation: The kinetic-molecular theory studies the behavior of particles under pre-determinated situation. In cases of gases, the particles moving around colliding with each other and the walls of the container, without loss of energy. In the case in question, all the parameters are the same (same temperature, volume and pressure), except for the gases, which has different molar masses. In this sense, Neon has lower average speed due to its molar mass being higher, which means, its particles moves slower for being heavier. Related to pressure, as velocity is lower, it collides less with the walls of the tank, and so pressure is lower. For density, it doesn't affect the behavior of the system nor the kinetic energy.
