6 0

Answer:

760 mmHg

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

  • Partial pressure of nitrogen (pN₂): 592 mmHg
  • Partial pressure of oxygen (pO₂): 160 mmHg
  • Partial pressure of argon (pAr): 7 mmHg
  • Partial pressure of the trace gas (pt): 1 mmHg

Step 2: Calculate the atmospheric pressure

Since air is a gaseous mixture, the atmospheric pressure is equal to the sum of the gases that compose it.

P = pN₂ + pO₂ + pAr + pt = 592 mmHg + 160 mmHg + 7 mmHg + 1 mmHg = 760 mmHg

Describe what happens to the mass number and the atomic number of a nuclide during alpha decay.
Digiron [165]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: The mass number will be 4 units lower.

Explanation:

Alpha particles are Helium atoms, which have a mass number of 4 and atomic number of 2.

When an alpha particle is released, the original atom loses 2 protons and and 2 neutrons an we can see in the example.

During an experiment, 95 grams of calcium carbonate reacted with an excess amount of hydrochloric acid. If the percent yield of
almond37 [142]

Answer:

Actual yield: 86.5 grams.

Explanation:

How many moles of formula units in 95 grams of calcium carbonate \rm CaCO_3?

Refer to a modern periodic table for relative atomic mass data:

  • Ca: 40.078;
  • C: 12.011;
  • O: 15.999.

Formula mass of \rm CaCO_3:

M(\mathrm{CaCO_3})  = \underbrace{1\times 40.078}_{\rm Ca} + \underbrace{1\times 12.011}_{\rm C} + \underbrace{3\times 15.999}_{\rm O} = \rm 100.086\;g\cdot mol^{-1}.

\displaystyle n(\mathrm{CaCO_3}) = \frac{m(\mathrm{CaCO_3})}{M(\mathrm{CaCO_3})} = \rm \frac{95\;g}{100.086\;g\cdot mol^{-1}} = 0.949184\;mol.

How many moles of \rm CaCl_2 will be produced?

The coefficient in front of \rm CaCO_3 in the chemical equation is the same as that in front of \rm CaCl_2. That is:

\displaystyle \frac{n(\rm CaCl_2)}{n(\rm CaCO_3)} = 1.

\displaystyle n(\mathrm{CaCl_2}) = n(\mathrm{CaCO_3})\cdot \frac{n(\rm CaCl_2)}{n(\rm CaCO_3)} = n(\mathrm{CaCO_3}) = \rm 0.949184\;mol.

What's the theoretical yield of calcium chloride? In other words, what's the mass of \rm 0.949184\;mol of \rm CaCl_2?

Again, refer to a periodic table for relative atomic data:

  • Ca: 40.078;
  • Cl: 35.45.

M(\mathrm{CaCl_2}) = \underbrace{1\times 40.078}_{\rm Ca} + \underbrace{2\times 35.45}_{\rm Cl} = \rm 110.978\;g\cdot mol^{-1}.

\begin{aligned}m(\mathrm{CaCl_2}) &= n(\mathrm{CaCl_2})\cdot M(\mathrm{CaCl_2})\\ &= \rm 0.949184\;mol\times 110.978\;g\cdot mol^{-1}\\ &= \rm 105.339\; g\end{aligned}.

What's the actual yield of calcium chloride?

\displaystyle \text{Percentage Yield} = \frac{\text{Actual Yield}}{\text{Theoretical Yield}}\times 100\%.

\displaystyle \begin{aligned}\text{Actual Yield} &= \text{Theoretical Yield}\cdot \frac{\text{Percentage Yield}}{100\%}\\ &=\rm 105.339\; g \times \frac{82.15\%}{100\%}\\&= \rm 86.5\;g \end{aligned}.
