Answer:

The equilibrium partial pressure of O2 is 0.545 atm

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Partial pressure of SO2 = 0.409 atm

Partial pressure of O2 = 0.601 atm

At equilibrium, the partial pressure of SO2 was 0.297 atm.

Step 2: The balanced equation

2SO2 + O2 ⇆ 2SO3

Step 3: The initial pressure

pSO2 = 0.409 atm

pO2 = 0.601 atm

pSO3 = 0 atm

Step 4: Calculate the pressure at the equilibrium

pSO2 = 0.409 - 2X atm

pO2 = 0.601 - X atm

pSO3 = 2X

pSO2 = 0.409 - 2X atm = 0.297

 X = 0.056 atm

pO2 = 0.601 - 0.056 = 0.545 atm

pSO3 = 2*0.056 = 0.112 atm

Step 5: Calculate Kp

Kp = (pSO3)²/((pO2)*(pSO2)²)

Kp = (0.112²) / (0.545 * 0.297²)

Kp = 0.261

The equilibrium partial pressure of O2 is 0.545 atm

A typical person has an average heart rate of 75.0 beats/min. Calculate the following a)How many beats does she have in 7.0 year
hram777 [196]

Let us first convert years to minute.

7 years * (365 days / year) * (24 hours / day) * (60 minutes / hour) = 3,679,200 minutes

 

a. beats = 75.0 beats/min * 3,679,200 minutes

beats = 275,940,000 beats

Since the original given is 7.0 years (2 significant figures), therefore:

beats = 270,000,000 beats

 

b beats = 75.0 beats/min * 3,679,200 minutes

beats = 275,940,000 beats

Since the original given is 7.000 years (4 significant figures), therefore:

<span>beats = 275,900,000 beats</span>

Answer: C) a redox reaction that produces an electric current

Explanation:

Chemical cell is a device which is used for the conversion of the chemical energy produced in a redox reaction into the electrical energy. The cell consists of the negative terminal called as anode where oxidation takes place and a positive terminal called as cathode where reduction takes place.

Electrolytic cell is a device which is used to carry out chemical reactions by the use of electrical energy. The cell consists of the negative terminal called as cathode where reduction takes place and a positive terminal called as anode where oxidation takes place.

A sample of oxygen gas occupies a volume of 250 mL at .8 atm of pressure. What volume will it occupy at 1.2 atm of pressure?
musickatia [10]
167 mL

P1V1 = P2V2
P1 = .8 atm
V1 = 250 mL
P2 = 1.2 atm

Solve for V2 —> V2 = P1V1/P2

V2 = (0.8 atm)(250 mL) / (1.2 atm) = 167 mL
