Answer:

  • <u><em>At.</em></u>

Explanation:

The <em>partial pressure</em> of a gas in a mixture is equal to the mole fraction of the gas multipplied by the total pressure.

The mole fraction of a component in a mixture is equal to the number of moles of the component divided by the total number of moles in the mixture.

In the mixture given there are:

  • 0.5 mol He,
  • 0.09 mol CO₂,
  • 0.75 mol O₂, and
  • 1.5 mol At.

Hence, the gas with greatest number of moles, and, consequetly, greatest mole fraction and<em> highest partial pressure</em> is<em> At</em>.

Whitney's lung capacity was measured as 3.3 l at a body temperature of 37 ∘c and a pressure of 746 mmhg . how many moles of oxyg
myrzilka [38]

the ideal gas equation is PV=nRT  
 where P=pressure  
 V=Volume  
 n=no. of moles  
 R=universal gas constant  
 T=temperature  
 The universal gas constant (R) is 0.0821 L*atm/mol*K    
 a pressure of 746 mmhg =0.98 atm= 1 atm (approx)   
 T=37 degrees Celsius =37+273=310 K (convert it to Kelvin by adding 273)    
 V=0.7 L (only getting oxygen, get 21% of 3.3L)    
 Solution:  
 (1 atm)(0.7 L)=n(0.0821 L*atm/mol*K)(310 K)  
 0.7 L*atm=n(25.451 L*atm/mol)  
 n=0.0275 mole   
 Answer:   
n=0.0275 mole of oxygen in the lungs.

identify what type of mixture powdered chalk and powdered table salt is and suggest a technique for separating their components
Iteru [2.4K]
This is a homogenous mixture because you cannot differentiate between the members of the mixture. A technique might be heating them until one melts and evaporates due to different boiling temperatures, or mixing them together with fluids that would dissolve one, yet keep the other one whole.

Consider the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide reaction. If the rate of decomposition of hydrogen peroxide at a particular temp
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

0.049 mol/L.s

Explanation:

The decomposition of hydrogen peroxide is:

H_2O_2 \to H_2O + \dfrac{1}{2}O_2

Rate = -\dfrac{\Delta [H_2O_2]}{\Delta t}= \dfrac{\Delta [H_2O_2]}{\Delta t}= \dfrac{ 2  \Delta [H_2O_2]}{\Delta t}

The rate of decomposition reaction = the rate of formation of H_2O = 0.098 mol/L.s

∴

Rate of formation of O_2 = \dfrac{ rate \ of \ reaction }{2}

= \dfrac{ 0.098 }{2}

= 0.049 mol/L.s

Use the given half reactions to "construct" an electrolytic cell. Zn^2+ + 2 e^---------&gt;Zn E°cell = -0.76 V Cu^2+ + 2 e^-----
Neko [114]

Answer:

See explanation and image attached

Explanation:

The standard cell potential at 298 K is given by;

E°cathode - E°anode

Hence;

E°cell = 0.34 V - (-0.76 V)

E°cell = 0.34 V + 0.76 V

E°cell = 1.1 V

To reduce Zn^2+ to Zn then Zn must be the cathode, hence;

E°cell = (-0.76 V) - 0.34 V

E°cell = -1.1 V

During radioactive decay, the __________ isotope decays into a ____________ isotope that has a different ___________________ num
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer: Please find answer in explanation column

Explanation:

During radioactive decay, the __unstable ________ isotope decays into a _stable ___________ isotope that has a different ____proton _______________ number

Or

During radioactive decay, the _ unstable parent nuclide ________ isotope decays into a _stable daughter nuclide ___________ isotope that has a different ____proton _______________ number.

There are 3 types of radioactive decay;alpha, beta and gamma, Of which the above clearly explains the beta decay. In beta decay, the unstable isotope having excess neutrons  will undergo a beta decay emitting a beta particle.( ⁰₋₁e) causing the nucleus to loose a neutron but gain a proton.

Some heavy unstable isotopes which undergo radioactive (beta decay ) to become stable isotopes  are phosphorus-32, strontium-90, iodine-131

Using Strontium 90 as an example , we have

⁹⁰₃₈St ----->⁹⁰₃₉Y + ⁰₋₁e

Strontium an unstable isotope undergoes a beta radioactive decay to form Yttrium.
