Assume a scuba diver is working at a depth where the total pressure is 5.0 atm (about 50 m below the surface). What mole fractio

Answer: 0.042

Explanation:

The partial pressure of a gas is given by Raoult's law, which is:

p=p_T\times \chi

where,

p_A = partial pressure of oxygen = 0.210 atm

p_T = total pressure = 5.0 atm

\chi_A = mole fraction of oxygen = ?

Putting values in above equation, we get:

0.210=5.0\times \chi

\chi =0.042

Hence, the mole fraction of oxygen necessary in order for the partial pressure of oxygen in the gas mixture the diver breathes to be 0.210 atm is 0.042.

What causes salinization​
Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

Salinization is the increase of salt concentration in soil and is, in most cases, caused by dissolved salts in the water supply. This supply of water can be caused by flooding of the land by seawater, seepage of seawater or brackish groundwater through the soil from below.

Some people must eat a low-sodium diet with no more than 2,000 mg of sodium per day. By eating 1 cracker, 1 pretzel, and 1 cooki
Leni [432]

Answer:

The amount of sodium is 32 mg per cracker, 49 mg per pretzel and 68 mg per cookie.

Explanation:

Let's assume amount of sodium is x mg per cracker, y mg per pretzel and z mg per cookie.

So, the following three equations can be written as per given information:

x+y+z = 149 ........(1)

8y+8z = 936 ........(2)

6x+7y = 535 .........(3)

From equation- (2), y+z = \frac{936}{8} = 117

By substituting the value of (y+z) in equation- (1) we get,

                          x = 149-(y+z) = 149-117 = 32

By substituting the value of x into equation- (3) we get,

                           y = \frac{535-(6\times 32)}{7} = 49

By substituting the value of y  into equation- (2) we get,

                           z = (117-49) = 68

So, the amount of sodium is 32 mg per cracker, 49 mg per pretzel and 68 mg per cookie.

sucrose is composed of carbon hydrogen and oxygen which of the following is not needed in order to determine the precent by mass
Dimas [21]

Explanation:

It is often desirable to determine the mass percent of elements in a given compound.

To determine the mass percent of elements:

  • Evaluate the formula mass of the compound. This is done by summing the atomic masses of the atoms in the compound together.
  • The mass percentage is determined by pacing the mass contribution of each element or group to the formula mass of the compound and multiply by 100.

An aerospace engineer is designing a rocket to have three stages. Which is
valina [46]

Answer:

<em>A not reasonable explanation for an aerospace engineer designs a rocket to have three stages is</em>:

  • <u><em>A. To simplify the design of the rocket</em></u>

Explanation:

A <em>three stages rocket</em> permits to separate the fuel compartments. The rocket must be launched with a huge amount of fuel to last the entire travel. Then the initial mass of the rocket and the fuel is considerably large.

As the rocket flies, part of the fuel is consumed and so some compartements may be separated and removed decreasing the mass of the rocket as it flies (<em>option D. </em>is a reasonable explanation), so the rocket only carries the necessary mass (<em>statement B</em>. is a reasonable explanation).

As the rocket moves away from Earth, the gravitational force decreases and, in the space, the amount of thrust needed is lesser, which the aerospace engineers take into account for the design (choice C. is a reasonable explanation).

The only <em>not reasonable explanation to design a three stage rocket</em> is to <em>simplify the design of the rocket</em>: designing a rocket with three modules each with different features, functions, and the detachment mechanisms brings lot of complex problems to solve. So, o<em>ption A. </em>is the correct answer.
