A flask contains a gas mixture of hydrogen, nitrogen and methane. The total pressure of the mix is 3.0 atm. The partial pressure

of the hydrogen is 0.5 atm, and the partial pressure of the methane is 1.5 atm. What is the partial pressure of the nitrogen?

Answer:

P_{N_2}=1.0atm

Explanation:

Hello,

Considering the Dalton's law which states that the total pressure of a gaseous system is defined by the summation of the the partial pressures of the present gases:

P_T=\Sigma P_i

For the given system:

P_T=P_{H_2}+P_{N_2}+P_{CH_4}

Solving for the partial pressure of nitrogen we obtain:

P_{N_2}=3.0atm-0.5atm-1.5atm=1.0atm

Best regards.

In an extraction procedure, it is advisable to: save all layers until the experiment is complete. throw away all layers as soon
LenKa [72]

All the layers should be kept until the experiment is complete.

<h3>What is extraction?</h3>

In chemistry, solvent extraction is accomplished by adding a sample containing the substance to be separated into a system of two solvents, an aqueous layer and an organic layer.

It is important to note that all the layers should be kept until the experiment is complete. No layer ought to be discarded before the work is completed.

Which of the following elements is the least reactive metal? Sodium, Rubidium, Chlorine, and Magnesium.​
LuckyWell [14K]
First off chlorine is not a metal so you can ignore that one.

Sodium and Rubidium are in group 1 of the periodic table and Magnesium is in group 2.

Group one metals are more reactive than group two because it is harder for the group two metals to lose their 2 valence (outer most) electrons.

As you go down group 1 there is an increase in the reactivity this is because as you go down there is an increase in the atomic radius which leads to more shielding. This weakens the electrostatic forces of attraction making it easier to lose the outermost electrons, therefore they are more reactive.

Mercury has an atomic mass of 200.59 amu. calculate the mass of 3.0 x 10^10 atoms
Licemer1 [7]
To determine mass of the given number of atoms of mercury, we need a factor that would relate the number of atoms to number of moles. In this case, we use the Avogadro's number. It is a <span>number that represents the number of units in one mole of any substance. This has the value of 6.022 x 10^23 units / mole. The number of units could be atoms, molecules, ions or electrons. To convert into mass, we use the given amu of mercury since it is equal to grams per mole. We calculate as follows:

</span>3.0 x 10^10 atoms ( 1 mol / 6.022 x 10^23 atoms ) ( 200.59 g / 1 mol ) = 9.99x10^-12 g Hg

The Element rhenium has two naturally occurring isotopes, 185 Re and 187 Re, with an average atomic mass of 186.207 amu. Rhenium
BigorU [14]
To calculate the average mass of the element, we take the summation of the product of the isotope and the percent abundance. In this case, the equation becomes 186.207=187*0.626+185*x where x is the percent abundance of 185. The answer is 0.374 or 37.4%. This can also be obtained by 100%-62.6%= 37.4%.

A 265-mL flask contains pure helium at a pressure of 751 torrs. A second flask with a volume of 465 mL contains pure argon at a
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

Total Pressure = 745.6 torr

Partial Pressure of He = 272.8 torr

Partial Pressure of Ar =  472.8 torr

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Volume of the flask helium = 265 mL

Pressure in the helium flask = 751 torr = 751/760 atm

Volume of the flask argon = 465 mL

Pressure in the argon flask = 727 torr = 727/760 atm

The total pressure exerted by a gaseous mixture is equal to the sum of the partial pressures of each individual component in a gas mixture.

Step 2: Calculate total volume

Total volume = 265 mL + 465 mL = 730 mL =  0.730 L

Step 3: Boyle's Law:

P1V1=P2V2

⇒ with P1 = total pressure gas exerts in its own flask

 ⇒ with V1 = volume of flask with stopcock valve closed

 ⇒ with P2 = partial pressure of gas exerts on total volume of both flasks when stopcock valve is opened  

 ⇒ with V2 = total volume of both flasks with stopcock valve opened

Helium using Boyle's Law equation from above:

P1V1=P2V2

⇒ with P1 = Pressure of helium = 751 /760 = 0.98816 atm

 ⇒ with V1 = volume of helium = 0.265 L

 ⇒ with P2 = The new partial pressure of helium

 ⇒ with V2 = total volume = 0.730 L

(0.98816 atm)(0.265L)=P2(0.730L)

P2=0.359 atm

Argon using Boyle's Law equation from above:

P1V1=P2V2

⇒ with P1 = Pressure of argon = 727/760 = 0.95658 atm

 ⇒ with V1 = volume of argon = 0.465 L

 ⇒ with P2 = The new partial pressure of argon

 ⇒ with V2 = total volume = 0.730 L

(0.95658 atm)(0.465L)=P2(0.730L)

P2=0.609 atm

Step 4: Convert pressure in atm to torr

Pressure helium = 0.359 atm = 272.8 torr

Pressure argon = 0.609 atm = 472.8 torr

Step 5: Calculate Total pressure

Ptotal = P(He)+P(Ar)

⇒ Pt  = total pressure of the gas mixture

⇒ P(He) = partial pressure of Helium

 ⇒ P(Ar)  = partial pressure of Argon

Pt = 272.8 torr + 472.8 torr

Pt = 745.6 torr

Total Pressure = 745.6 torr

Partial Pressure of He = 272.8 torr

Partial Pressure of Ar =  472.8 torr
