Answer : The partial pressure of N_2 and H_2 is, 216.5 mmHg and 649.5 mmHg

Explanation :

According to the Dalton's Law, the partial pressure exerted by component 'i' in a gas mixture is equal to the product of the mole fraction of the component and the total pressure.

Formula used :

p_i=X_i\times p_T

X_i=\frac{n_i}{n_T}

So,

p_i=\frac{n_i}{n_T}\times p_T

where,

p_i = partial pressure of gas

X_i = mole fraction of gas

p_T = total pressure of gas

n_i = moles of gas

n_T = total moles of gas

The balanced decomposition of ammonia reaction will be:

2NH_3\rightarrow N_2+3H_2

Now we have to determine the partial pressure of N_2 and H_2

p_{N_2}=\frac{n_{N_2}}{n_T}\times p_T

Given:

n_{N_2}=1\\\\n_{H_2}=3\\\\n_{T}=4\\\\p_T=866mmHg

p_{N_2}=\frac{1}{4}\times (866mmHg)=216.5mmHg

and,

p_{H_2}=\frac{n_{H_2}}{n_T}\times p_T

Given:

n_{H_2}=1\\\\n_{H_2}=3\\\\n_{T}=4\\\\p_T=866mmHg

p_{H_2}=\frac{3}{4}\times (866mmHg)=649.5mmHg

Thus, the partial pressure of N_2 and H_2 is, 216.5 mmHg and 649.5 mmHg

Why should a sports person or a rickshaw puller in take more corbohydrate rich food in their diet​
Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

These glucose molecules are stored in the liver and muscles to be used for fuel, especially during physical activity. Carbohydrates improve athletic performance by delaying fatigue and allowing an athlete to compete at higher levels for longer. nutrients, such as fat or muscle protein, are utilized to make energy.

Tin was among the first metals used by humans. Elemental tin is produced by heating tin(IV) oxide, the principal ore of tin, wit
insens350 [35]

<u>Answer:</u> The coefficient of carbon in the chemical reaction is 1.

<u>Explanation:</u>

A balanced chemical equation is defined as the equation in which total number of individual atoms on the reactant side is equal to the total number of individual atoms on product side.

Law of conservation of mass states that mass can neither be created nor be destroyed but it can only be transformed from one form to another form.

The chemical equation for the reaction of tin (IV) oxide and carbon follows:

SnO_2+C\rightarrow Sn+CO_2

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of tin (IV) oxide reacts with carbon to produce 1 mole of elemental tin and carbon dioxide.

Hence, the coefficient of carbon in the chemical reaction is 1.

What is electron shielding
Artist 52 [7]

Shielding electrons are the electrons in the energy levels between the nucleus and the valence electrons. They are called "shielding" electrons because they "shield" the valence electrons from the force of attraction exerted by the positive charge in the nucleus. Hope this helps!!

What is the pressure in a 245 L tank that contains 5.21 kg of helium at 27 Celsius ​
Kitty [74]
<h2><u>Answer:</u></h2>

(These are not rounded to the correct decimal)

130.94 atm

13,266.6 kPa

99,571.4 mmHg

<h2><u>Explanation:</u></h2>

<u></u>

PV = nRT

V = 245L

P = ?

R = 0.08206 (atm) , 8.314 (kPa) , 62.4 (mmHg)

T = 273.15 + 27 = 300.15K

n = 1302.5 moles

How I found (n).

5.21kg x 1000g/1kg x 1 mole/4.0g = 1302.5 moles

Now, plug all the numbers into the equation.

Pressure in atm = (1302.5)(0.08206)(300.15) / 245 = 130.94 atm (not rounded to the correct decimal)

Pressure in kPa = (1302.5)(8.314)(300.15) / 245 = 13,266.6 kPa (not rounded to the correct decimal)

Pressure in mmHg = (1302.5)(62.4)(300.15) / 245 = 99,571.4 mmHg (not rounded to the correct decimal)

Based on the shapes of the water drops in part D, how does the attractive force between water and wax compare to the attractive
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

Because the cohesive forces inside the droplets are stronger than the adhesive forces between both the drops and the wax, water does not penetrate waxed surfaces. Because the adhesive forces between the liquid and the glass are stronger than the cohesive forces inside the water, water wets glass and spreads out across it.
