Answer:

20.44\times 10^3 kPa is the total pressure of the tank.

Explanation:

Partial pressures of nitrogen = p_{N_2}=1.61\times 10^4 kPa

Partial pressure of oxygen =  p_{O_2}=4.34\times 10^3 kPa

Total pressure of gases in the tank = P

Applying Dalton's law of partial pressures :

P=p_{N_2}+p_{O_2}=1.61\times 10^4 kPa+4.34\times 10^3 kPa

P=20.44\times 10^3 kPa

20.44\times 10^3 kPa is the total pressure of the tank.

Purification of nickel can be achieved by electrorefining nickel from an impure nickel anode onto a pure nickel cathode in an el
Alexxandr [17]

Answer: 530 hours

Explanation:

The reduction of Nickel ions to nickel is shown as:

Ni^{2+}+2e^-\rightarrow Ni

96500\times 2=193000Coloumb of electricity deposits 1 mole of Nickel

1 mole of Nickel weighs = 58.7 g

Given quantity = 18.0 kg = 18000 g  (1kg=1000g)

58.7 g of Nickel is deposited by 193000 C of electricity

18000 g of Nickel is deposited by = \frac{193000}{58.7}\times 18000=59182282.8C of electricity

Q=I\times t

where Q= quantity of electricity in coloumbs  = 59182282.8C

I = current in amperes = 31.0 A

t= time in seconds = ?

59182282.8C=31.0A\times t

t=1909105.9sec

(1h=3600 sec)

t=530hours

Thus 530 hours are required to plate 18.0 kg of nickel onto the cathode if the current passed through the cell is held constant at 31.0 A

If 38.5 grams of potassium react with excess oxygen gas, how many grams of potassium oxide can be produced? 4K + O2 yields 2K2O
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

46.40 g.

Explanation:

  • It is a stichiometric problem.
  • The balanced equation of the reaction: 4K + O₂ → 2K₂O.
  • It is clear that 4.0 moles of K reacts with 1.0 mole of oxygen produces 2.0 moles of K₂O.
  • We should convert the mass of K (38.5 g) into moles using the relation:

<em>n = mass / molar mass,</em>

n = (38.5 g) / (39.098 g/mol) = 0.985 mole.

<em>Using cross multiplication:</em>

4.0 moles of K produces → 2.0 moles of K₂O, from the stichiometry.

0.985 mole of K produces → ??? moles of K₂O.

∴ The number of moles of K₂O produced = (0.985 mole) (2.0 mole) / (4.0 mole) = 0.4925 mole ≅ 0.5 mole.

  • Now, we can get the mass of K₂O:

∴ mass = n x molar mass = (0.5 mole) (94.2 g/mol) = 46.40 g.

a 360mg sample of sugar (molar mass of 180 g/mol) is dissolved in enough water to produce 200mL of solution. after the sugar is
Pie
360 mg / 1000    => 0.36 g

molar mass => 180 /mol

number of moles:

mass of solute / molar mass

0.36 / 180 => 0.002 moles

Volume solution = 200 mL / 1000 => 0.2 L

M = n / V

M = 0.002 / 0.2

M = 0.01 mol/L

hope this helps!
